Former St Gabriel's RC High pupil Michael Verstappen has come across this old photograph of the class of 1962. Michael from Edenfield is pictured second from the left, on the second from front row. He said: "The teacher sitting near to me is Miss Curry, our form teacher. She was lovely. I found the photograph ages ago and have now printed off several copies. If anyone would like a free copy then they should ring me on 01706 82 4525. It would be nice to hear from my old class mates."
Hoping to contact former school pals

"I attended Church Central Secondary Modern from 1951-1955," writes Mr John Fisher form Chesterfield. "I would like to contact any of my old school chums, most of whom I have not seen since I left in 1955. They are pictured in this class photograph taken around 1952. It would be good to hear how they have fared since leaving school. Most of them will be in their mid 60s so I thought I should try to contact them before it's too late!"
