1960 photo-roll of the whole Grammar school that year that will get a few memory cells going.
I remember "Tich" [that makes 3 teachers so far by the name Jones!] I think he just made the 1960 photo as did the new Physics teacher (name?) and later T G Phelps - maths.
Ah! so I don't need to find it 'cos Rodger has it up on the 'log in' thread already! Thanks Rodger thanks Gary.
This photo needs to go up on facebook so it can be tagged properly. Any way, here's a start.

Nobody has mentioned Mr Miles (Physics) lovely guy from the 'old school' (literally - he retired in my first year).
When he did the experiment linking two soap bubbles, [a large and a not-so-large joined by a tube which had a tap in the middle].
Here's a good question, can anybody remember:
1/ What you would naturally expect to happen when the tap was opened.
2/ What actually happened to the 2 bubbles?
3/ Having Observed it Mr Miles asked what Bible quote it reminded them of?
Can anybody answer these 3 questions??
Ah well nobody is going to come up with this one
1/ The bubbles equalize
2/ One bubble (the smaller) goes down to zero pushing all the air into the larger!
3/
Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents. For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath. Matt 25:29
