Are you listed here in 1935 at Holy Trinity School.

Where are they today I wonder? This list is of students who were registered into Holy Trinity School in the year 1935. They were of varying ages, as some of their families had just moved into the village, They did not all start their school days with Miss Collins. They could have been in Mrs. Evans, Mrs. Snapes or Mrs. Adams class. Mrs. Adams was the Head Teacher and took care of all the enrollments.

We start with the girls and the date of enrollment:

7th of January 1935.
Joyce Honour. Mary Magnolia Easton.
Phyllis Lavinia Northway. Beata Doreen Sayell.

28th of January 1935.

Of course the majority of these ladies now will have married and have families of their own with fast growing up Grandchildren, who may read this and recognize their Grandma’s name when she was a little girl.

Ronald Honour is my father: his sister is Joyce & his brother is James. They lived at several addresses in Cookham, including Station Rd. Their father was the farmer & milkman who ran the farm on Cookham Moor in the 20s/30s (now demolished & a large building site when we visited today).Grandad's cows and may tree appear in Stanley Spencer's paintings & my dad remembers the Spencer family.

I am Joan May Westcott one of the 1935 intake that you have mentioned.
My home was in 4 Pound Lane which is now known as Terrys Lane. When I returned to the village on a visit, I asked when the name of the road was changed and was told that it had always been known as Terrys Lane, but I am absolutely certain that it was Pound Lane. Hope somebody can confirm this.
What a lovely surprise to see this Blog and the memories it brought back of my friend Beryl Eastham (who's father was the local policeman).
I also lived on Winters Hill with Joyce Austin for a time.

Hello. I have been researching my family history and the Mrs Evans mentioned here was my grandmother. She taught at Holy Trinity for many years. I have a couple of photos that you could use if you would like to.

I would like to be in touch with any of the pupils mentioned to see if they remember my grandmother. Maybe I should start my own blog!

My dear Joan:

I wonder if you can remember that we sang a duet in Hey Diddle Diddle at the school concert at the Pinder Hall just after it opened in 1936. You were the princess and I was the Dish that ran away with the Spoon!

Regards,

James Hatch
