Miss Smith (History) was invited to the meeting |
Sister Victoire entrusted me with items from her Hollies archives when we met in 2000 to discuss the possibility of writing a history of the school.
Recently, I came across School Inspection Reports going back to the early 20th centuary.
I also found the admission registers that Sister Victoire had saved when the school was closed. These date from 1942 to 1975, the others (1853 - 1942, and 1976 - 1984) were lost.
Miss Smith was my favourite teacher ever. She was strict, fair and fun and inspired in me a lifelong love of history. I would loved to have met up with her again.
ReplyDeleteShe inspired me too. I loved her tales of feeling she was under surveilance when visiting East Berlin in the 1950s.
