Manor School in the early Sixties.
The image was kindly supplied by Glen Pharoah, whose brother Bob is
pictured in the background.
As Mike Etheridge (JRGS 1963-65) writes: "The image was
probably taken by our Maths Master, John "Jock" Lucas.
Alan Durr (JRGS 1963-65) is pictured on the extreme left of the

"I remember Bernard Brown at Norbury Manor school when the top
classes were based at a building in Winterbourne Road that was, at one
time, Heath Clark Grammar prior to the latter school's move to Waddon. I
did not know Bernard well but I can remember him being a really nice
chap.
"We were all tasked with making models as maths projects at Norbury
Manor. All the models had specific names, such as 'Greater Stellated
Dodecahedron,' or similar. The best models were hung from the ceiling in
the maths room. Those fixed with Sellotape soon fell down when the tape
rotted. My last most complex models were fixed with balsa cement and
painted with Humbrol enamel."
