as a sideline. Im so glad to see Mrs Steele, Miss Weir, Mr McKay
and Mr McNaughten are still inspiring kids at the Grammar today!

of my life. remember joe stewart as a hard but fair headmaster
and the rest of the teachers as very good at teaching but also
extremely good at find novel ways to punish other than the
cane.having said that i deserved all but one of my punishments
and as far as i see they did me no harm whatever.good luck to
the school and may it go on for years to come |
