I am a friend of Doreen's and also went to St. Johns. My lasting memory of the school is when I was in the infants class, we all had small tins of counters on our desks and I accidentally knocked mine onto the floor. I was pulled from my chair and made to kneel in front of the small alter which was on the left hand side of the class room, and say three Hail Mary's! It was either Sister Magdalene or Sister Benedict, and I was five years old at the time.I remember Jane Ring, June Ryall, Kay Clarke, Cherry Bridges, we all went on to The Ham, and thought it great when the school flooded and we were sent home.My sister, Patricia Casey, also went to St. Johns and she remembers Colin and Georgina Keeping, Gwen Lark, Pat Roache, Pat Ring and Bob Giddings.Finally, a note to Jim Lawes - I'm the Christine that works for Derek Crane!! Small World!
