| Comments: | Hi to all you fellow travellers on the time warp of Wetherby High archives.It is brilliant to see all the old gangs But where is the class of '71? We were the worst ever Prefects and not much of a credit to the teaching staff! Hope to meet up with some of you in 2002 Later |

| Comments: | Hi all, been living in London for some time now, guess that I'll be here for a while as I've just bought a place here. Nice to see some of the old classmates, by chance mostly when I'm back to see my folks - usually at Christmas. I'll have a dig through the "Cook family" archive next time I'm home and see if I can send in some of those embarrassing school photos. |

| Comments: | Was only at WHS for 4 years, did my 16+ and A'levels there. Favourite teacher had to be Paul Jarvis but do you rememember the relief English teacher we got whilst he was off sick (yes the one with the awful wig!!!!)... who was it who got into trouble for asking if it was her real hair? Also remember thinking there was something going on with Fiona Rush and Chris Thompson (Recall vaguely having something to do with a poster put up in the science block saying Go to 'Rusha' for a great Thompson hone |

| Comments: | It was Christine (Chris) Collings. She ended up getting divorced and finding a really nice guy who has a farm down in the South West. Not so well at the moment but still the same old Gal! |

| Comments: | I'll agree to that Diane. Chris's surname was Collins. She was good at hockey too. I saw Mrs.Hudson in Morrison's carpark a few weeks ago. She didn't seem to be stuck to a chair then ! So must've recovered. She looked exactly the same as 25 years ago...ouch..how long? |

| Comments: | Nice to see Jason Sellars on site who had one of the most respected teachers for a father. The best art team ever to be at WHS was Chris [forgot her surname], Barry, Geoff Larwood and Geoff Wardle. |

| Comments: | Crikey, I never thought we'd get so far! A lot of old names I remember from my days, my brothers mates and my Dads years of teaching you all. By the way, remember Chris Thompson the Biology teacher from about 1985? He was living with his boyfriend in muscle beach the last I heard!!! Fiona Rush was safe after all! |

| Comments: | You'll all be mightily relieved to hear that I've found the infamous Mark Trepte and even got an email from him. Yes the lad who stuck his maths teacher to her seat ( I'm sure it wasn't Mrs Courchee, he must have been in a higher set than me, cos she was our teacher {the nice but dim set !}) He now lives near monmouth and runs an outdoor equipment shop called Trekitts. By the way does anyone remember the day when Mrs Berry exploded at Mark (Carrot) [cant remember second name] and Andrew Ingleb |

| Comments: | I think it was a very nice maths teacher called Sue Courchee who got glued to her seat by a very naughty little boy, Mark Trepte. Why he didn't pick on a nasty teacher is beyond me. I seem to remember the glue was meant for another, but poor Sue just sat in the wrong place at the wrong time. Am I being too kind to Mark? ..... was he just plain BAD?! come on someone else must remember! |

| Comments: | I would like to make a public apology as i feel wholly responsible for Mr. Slimmons' decision to leave the school. I gave him constant abuse and humiliation, predominantly for his ownership of a Yugo Tempo car. I must now eat my words after driving one for 4 months of my life. Sorry Sir. Mind you - you didn't do yourself any favours imitating 'Take That' alongside Pawson, Silverwood, Milner etc. Moreover, you were a ginner!!! |

| Comments: | What a memory shocker this site is! Special thanks go to it's patrons for publishing those pictures of me with my german helmet girlie hairstyle!!!. I thought I'd secretly hidden all the photos from my past. My mother claims that I wanted my hair that way but I simply don’t believe her! Surely I never had such bad taste? (Don’t answer that!)
