WE’VE made at least one mother very happy with our Colfox School look down memory lane.
Mrs June Arthurs opened the Bridport News last week and was thrilled to see a picture of her then 16-year-old daughter Sarah Groves playing in the Colfox Big Band.
She says her daughter still plays and teaches – but in France.
Here are a whole load more great archive pictures.
SOLVE THE PUZZLE: Former West Dorset MP Jim Spicer with Colfox 'intermediate A' girls. Who are they and what cup did they win and when?
HOSPITAL VISIT: Colfox School pupils at Port Bredy Hospital - but what are they doing?
NEWS MAKERS: Pupils at the News
WHO ARE THEY: Why is this Colfox trio so happy?
MEETING: Christophen Popham director of the British Atlantic Committee with Colfox pupils Sara Thorne and Marie Angeka Pursall
WE KNEW that asking the members of the Memories of Bridport Facebook group would yield results and help them to relive their school days and we knew we were right.
From the caption we knew this was professor Fowler with the Colfox pupils but both Jason Udall and Janet Carter recognised Colin Wood in the back and Mr Udall thinks it looked like a polarisation of sugar demonstration.
Rose Barker and Sarah Pitcher identified Peter Brown as the headmaster and Hannah Plowman knew it was Chris Tolley at the front.
Young Chris was also remembered by Maria Louise Schollar, who recalled lots of girls had a crush on him as he was also very good at sports, she said.
