Brilliant footage. Thank you.
I went to The Sir William Nottidge from September 1956 to July 1960, from 1957 onward the teachers that taught me were excellent, made me wake up. The last day in school Jenkins (Welsh and arts and crafts) suggested that as i was excellent at leaving various bits of advertising around (last days of school) i should go in to advertising, well 6 year’s at Elvey Bros Cross and Jackman in Cromwell road, 49 years in the print industry, travelled extensively in the industry, I owe a lot to teachers like Viggers, Hutchinson, Nicholls, Gould, Jones. Great school in its days
Takes me back to my school days in the 1970’s at the Nottidge
Thank you
