Surrey Completed Look up Requests / Re: Shaftesbury Homes, Bisley Boys Central School 1936-1941
« on: Saturday 19 February 11 11:29 GMT (UK) »
Hi, Anyone from or about The Shaftesbury Homes @ Bisley, Surrey, UK. I find this site a bit confusing as it also runs into Geneology, but would love to have ongoing communication with any Old Boys from Bisley, Juniors or Seniors. Please feel free to Email me direct, I do not send out circular Jokes etc, just reply to Friends & Family.
I last posted here in September 2010. My Email is <lynles@slingshot.co.nz> My memory is confusing me with the layout of the Junior School, & the Senior School, so would love to have a drawing of anything anyone can regarding the Buildings etc. I was there April1938-December 1944. Can anyone remember what the Bandmaster's first name was .....Pope. Also the name of the Shoemaking Teacher, with a Glass Eye. Mr.Tucker I think was the Engineering Teacher, who was the Tailoring Teacher? Bertram Read was the Headmaster, Bill Tull was the Junior's Housemaster, Bill Wylie was the Seniors Housemaster. Miss Turner was one Junior Teacher, who was the other? Charlie Rogers (3a) was the Music Teacher, (3b) Mr Macey, I cannot remeber what he taught, was it basic Maths? (5) Starkey Goodger...what was his forte, English? (6) Horsey Paddock, advanced Maths. Mr Mansfield Groundskeeper & Sports Master. Was there a Form 4? who was the Teacher.
When Bill Tull retired, 1939 I think, he became the Landlord of the Crown & Anchor Hotel at Knaphill, Nr. Woking Surrey. His Daughter Margaret was one day older than I, & were madly in Love. She bought me sweets down to the Playing Fields on Saturdays, as I rarely behaved enough to earn any from the Tuck Shop. Mr Wenman took over from Bill Tull, but when his Daughter was killed srossing the road outside the local School, he & his Wife moved away. He was replaced by a Mr Cole, more later. Leslie B.
