It is 60 years since Joan started Grammar School in Brownhills. This year a good number of the original pupils met up at a reunion party. Lots of reminiscing of course, and friendships renewed with some not having seen each other since leaving school.
Joan’s five close friends, who have kept in touch in the intervening years, were able to assemble for a new school photo at the school reunion party most of whom were also known by Barrie as they met while Joan was still at school, and married just a few weeks after Joan received her A levels results.
