I have many happy memories of City Grammar, like spending my lunch money on crisps and butties from the shop across the road and buying thorntons toffees from the sweet shop at the tram stop etc. also doing homework on the tram on the way home, ahhhhhhhhhhh those were the days.

Message | What a wonderful time at Wentworth Hall in May. Thanks to Henry and Hazel Hinchcliffe for organising it. It was great seeing all the classmates from way back and also Mrs. McPherson (Miss Thorald). Anyone wanting a Holiday in Calgary email us at [email protected]. If anyone knows where Enid Hare, Pamela Price or Jacqueline Burrell are I would love to hear from them. Keep the news coming Margaret |

Message | I lived on Brightside lane Sheffield-9. We had the old train yards on one side and the steel factories all around us.If I'm right Don rd, Newhaul rd and Brightstde Lane encompased us in our old bomb damaged community.I left for the Royal Navy in 1968, non of the jobs really appealed at the time.I remember the Gillberthorps,Cockains,Battersbys,Ellis and Somersets(family members) off Don rd, hope l'm spelling right still trying to remember so many familys.We use to have some of the best bonfires on Nov-5th we had so much wood to burn, we always had a competition with Wincobank to who had the best.Yes the fires were so big we could see each others.We were all poor but we all had a great time.Remember the old wreck it was just ashphalt because the took all the swings etc for the war and we used that square for football,cricket just about anything it was our bit of open space,NO GRASS unless we took a bus ride.I did go to Hartlebrook school Shiregreen untill they changed the system and then l went to Firth park (comprehensive)grammer in 1964.Yes l was the first class to enter the down fall of grammer schools.Well if any body remembers the Somersets my brother Billy, sister Pat, mother Mary and my dad Bill or John William Barton was is legacy glad they kept me as Michael or Mick, Mike and some of the local kids called me Somerby after some famous football player. Well if you have any memories, think you remember us let me know, l live in California USA. E-MAIL [email protected]. |

Message | I was a pupil at the City Grammar School from 1948 to 1953 and I was fortunate to meet up with some fellow school members in Sheffield in 2004. I moved to Australia in 1970 and live in Canberra, Australia's capital city. I have been retired now for a number of years and have managed a couple of round the world trips as well as quite a few visits back to Sheffield. I can be contacted by E-mail on my address below.
