Girl on the left at the back I think is Joan Riley and I think thats her brother next to her they did come from either Canada or New Zealand. Christine Holmes Yes Joan did come from abroad. Cannot remember if it was Canada or New Zealand. She was a good friend and in my year. Christine Hathaway Phillips That's it. Noddings. I remember her doing gymnastics and going to the Youth club Teena Mitchell I recognise 5 of these people from AGS when I started there in Sept1968 Teena Mitchell Can't remember names as I was much younger but the three left middle and the two girls front right. Maggie Whitehead At the time I don't think Benton had a sixth form so to do A levels you went to AGS. Benton's sixth form didn't start until 1969 - I think as that was the year I left - aka Margaret Shutt Christine Hathaway Phillips My memories bad but is that Marcia Higgins 1st girl front row Elvy Harrison-Box Yes it looks like Marcia but thought her name was Williams. Elvy Harrison-Box Not sure but was the girl behind Marcia from New Zealand? Christine Hathaway Phillips Gosh Elvy I don't know, higgins just came in my head Lol. Your probably correct 😊 Angela Rust I recognise the boys( mm, surprising!). Was there an option to transfer to Aireborough at a younger age? I mean, earlier than 6th form? Judith Archdale Front row on the right - Lynda Beilby
