So great to hear about Wedges, never forgot it.
To Paula’s daughter Alison,
I remember your mother as Miss Benbow. I was up there in 1945 with my older brother Gordon (now deceased), I was Jean Taylor, the next year my sister Freda went with Gordon. I loved it and so did Gordon, not sure about Freda and she cannot remember your mum. I remember the name of Grainger. Your mum was the P.E teacher, I was not in her dormitory as I was in Nightingale. But we used to look out the window to the swimming pool seat where 2 people sat and talked. Fortunatly, we were never got caught.
I doubt if your mother will remember me but I learnt to swim in that old pool, played tennis and all sports. I never forgotten the great time I personally had at Wedges.
I hope your mother is happy and well as can be expected at ones respected ages.
Jean
