Surrey / Re: Richmond County School for Girls richmond

I attended between 1970 and when the school closed. My last form teacher was Mrs Murtough the French teacher. The class bought her a 5 year diary for Christmas but she never returned after the holiday having died suddenly of meningitis. She was a great teacher and about the only one who could control our rather spirited form class, for which she was much loved!
There was also the very good and kind maths teacher Mr Osmond and the very strict but excellent Latin teacher, Miss Read.
Someone here mentioned the dreaded showers. One of our class removed the wheel that turned them on and buried it in the field; I dont know whether they ever found it. There was also the prize giving at the Richmond Theatre where someone let off a stink bomb; my best friend Jane Harris! We were definitely the 'naughty' half of our year!
Since it was before emails and Facebook I lost contact with everyone when the school closed. I would especially like to find my 2 best friends there, Jane Harris who moved to Canada and Ruckhshana Buhariwala.
