Miss Storey’s class in 1968 had this class photograph taken. If you recognise yourself in this photograph please let us know!
This class photograph was taken in 1969. If you recognise yourself in the photograph please let us know! We believe the teacher had the initials EP and this was an 11+ class.Thank you to Deborah Fraser who got in touch to say, “I attended Mersey Park in the sixties. The teacher E.P. was Mr Parkinson, he was my teacher. He used to cycle to school on a Raleigh bicycle and wore jackets with leather patches on the elbows. I remember him as a very kind man.”
We believe these photographs of a French Club and trip to Paris were taken around this time. If you can give us any further information or anecdotes about this trip please get in touch!
Thank you to Julie Glover who got in touch to say, “I was present on the picture of the trip to Paris. We were accompanied by Mr Hooper and Miss Radford. Mr Hooper had lost an eye and an arm in World War 2. He was passionate about France and was our French teacher. I was a prefect and voted the first head girl of Mersey Park School. I enjoyed all of my time there.”
In 1970 the Girls Athletics team did particularly well and won this trophy.
