"
I left DPS in 1956 and went on to Riverside School in Springfield Rd. 
(alas it is no longer there) I lived on the London Rd. at the tram stop adjacent to Fielden St. Thanks to Friends Reunited and this website old memories from the past are now flooding my mind. Will be more than happy to hear from anyone who knew me."

"
I attended Riverside School 1954 -1957....my best friends at Riverside Sec.School were, Mary Quinn, Margaret Scott, and Betty Spence. My favourite teacher was Mrs. Morris who taught us Art, I am not sure her feelings for me were the same, as I was full of mischief, but intended it all to be fun! After leaving school I worked in the Canda, {dresses} married Brian and have one son, Brian jr. {41yrs}and a 15yr old grandson. We all live in Seattle Wa. U.S.A.{26yrs} I just found out about this website a few days ago, I have had so much fun looking at old pictures, and reading other people's memories....(e-mail :JB hislander@aol.com )
