A former Alloa Academy schoolgirl has shared an image of her primary seven class with the Advertiser, in a bid to jog memories and find out ‘where are they now?’
Like most in the image, Jan Graham (Lobley) is now 80 years old. She’s lived in Manchester for the past 15 years, but still comes back to visit family in the Forth Valley area.
The picture was taken in 1956, with pupils including Jan, fifth in the back row, gathered round their teacher Mr Dunnin.
Discussing her experience, she said: “It was a lovely, pleasant time. We all did what we were told, and nobody was really a pain in the classroom.
“I actually gave a bouquet to the queen when she came to Clackmannanshire and used our school as a place to freshen up. Because of that. The head boy and girl had the meal in the main hall.”
