Junior School nostalgia  

It was rewarding to meet so many old students at the Kings Weston open day. Some remember their time at junior school between 1949 and 1959, or the following decade when it performed duties as part of Bristol College of Science and Technology (later Bath University). We’re grateful for Robert Spereall for remembering his promise at last year’s Heritage Open Day and returning with copies of a couple of old school photos. Even better, he’s been able to identify almost all of his classmates in them!

Can you help with another photo of a class at Kings Weston? This one has been in our collection for some time, but we don’t know the names. If you can help, or fill in some of the gaps in the photos above, drop us an email at kwactiongroup@gmail.com .



School Memories

We’re aware than many of our followers have fond memories of their time at Kings Weston house when it operated as a school between, 1949 and 1960. 
We’ve just collected a new photo for our archive showing a school group on the steps of the house in May 1952. All we know is that this was class IX, but does anyone recognise themselves, friends or relatives in this photo?
