This picture was believed to have been taken
in the 70’s when Father Christmas was
brought into the School grounds courtesy
of the Army Air Corps
A somewhat indistinct close-up of the
Father Christmas party. Fred Ponsford
can be identified 2nd from the right,
Reg Tugwell is 3rd from the right.
Brigadier McNinch, A.A.C., heard of the Schools’s connection with the
Association and started a fund raising project and subsequently donated
a motor caravan to the School adapted with ramps and hoist.
For a number of years the caravan was used as a mobile classroom for
housebound handicapped children and later to take disabled children
to the seaside.
Brigadier ?, AAC is seen here handing over the motor caravan to Cyril.
Sadly Brigadier McNinch was killed in a flying accident before he could
officially hand over the caravan.
