Mr Fisk - Head Teacher Mrs Foggin -science Mr Hazon -Physics Mr Heaton -Chemistry Mr Penter- Biology Mr Bewick- Drama Dapper Dan - History Mr Caine - Geography Mr Singh- Maths Mrs Rochester -English Mr Macquillin - Maths Mr Wheeler- not sure what he did.

I can remember most of those , especially Mr Richardson's slipper. Some of those teachers transferred to Hadston with us when we were shipped over there.
Can you remember Miss Stanton the music teacher? Mr Ord the woodwork guy? Mr Almond, I recall, had a yellow mini, he did the Duke of Edinburgh Award camping trips up near Wooler, and bird watcing at Howick, both of which I did too. |

Yes that's two more, Mr Ord and Miss Stanton, woodwork and music.
I did a few backpacking trips with Mr Almond in the Cheviots. Wooler to Broadstruther; an abandoned cottage in the hills. Then cross to the Cheviot and walk out via Langleeford and the Harthope valley. Ms Peacock came along once too. There's a few crashed WW2 Planes around that area. Mr Almond does local history talks now. Last edited by Coquet; 07-04-2013 at 08:31 PM. Reason: sp |

Last night in a fit of nostalgia, I was going through all the names of people in the E2 year of 1980, the last to be at Hadston when it was Coquet High School. It's quite a list - 50 to 60 names, if anyone is interesred I 'll write them all down and post it.

There's a challenge. I can remember the year at Cross Street (outside toilets) freezing! Some of them must be on those Dovecote St photos on the other thread, my guess is, it's the half a dozen on those that I can't name that went to the Duke and Dutchess Schools. Carol or was it Susan Browne? Can't remember her first name, surname White?

I can remember Malcolm Young: had tea at his house a few times: he received an eye injury when someone threw a stone at him.
It's odd that I have Ian Dalby in my list too, maybe I'm mixing up my schools or just that some people stick in the mind more than others. |
