Hi Lynne
I was at Hatherleigh when it was a secondary modern school i went there in 1958 and left in 1962 or 1963 (cant remember) think it was 62, it was when they allowed you to leave at Christmas if you had reached the age of fifteen by then. I left to go hairdressing as i had been working after school and on the weekend at Stefans on Chepstow Road. Mentioned this to my mother in law and she attended Hatherleigh also when it was a high school. I still live in Newport although for the past twenty years i have worked in Cardiff. I live in Caerleon.
Regards
Mazzy
