   The reason I put the 1995 and 1997 photos together was to show how the technology changed in those years. Firstly we moved from black and white on to colour. Then see how everyone is organised. The early photo had the school arranged in an arc so the camera could pan around – ideal for the wag at one end to run round the back and appear at the other end – can you remember who did this? We had to bring out chairs,benches and tables and construct a mountain to accommodate everyone – a health and safety nightmare! The colour photo has staging supplied and erected by the photo company that made it much easier to get everyone standing in a more orderly fashion.

   It was Simon Honey in 1973. I believe he was asked to leave the school immediately by Bryan Short.
