St Paul’s C of E School Pageant

Far left Alan Vamplew, Diane Glew, just behind her are Susan Dixon and Carol Elvidge, just in front of them are Keith Brown (in stripes), slightly behind Keith are Pauline Evans and ? Then Michael Hollins and Tracey Godbold.  Standing higher than the rest is David Chapman, front row are Darren Sykes (or maybe Sides), Michelle McGrath, Corrie Roberts, Lesley Walker and Robert Ralph's.  The boy in glasses at the back is John Atherton. The year was probably 1974, the children would have all been in the last year at Brierley school and would have been about 9 years old. I was in the same class, but because I was always on the small side I was chosen to help in one of the younger classes for the play.
