I really thought that when I finished this blog back in 2009 that I had finished it. I had forgotten about it actually!
I started a couple of other blogs, (one now deleted), and was asked to help on several others so I was otherwise preoccupied.
Many thanks to Wendy and Miriam for leaving comments. I was amazed and delighted to hear from a few ex-pupils.
I think it took me months to realise that anyone had even looked at the blog, much less left a comment!

At least after that happened I became more aware of the possibility, and began checking a little more often.
Both Miriam and Wendy helped jog my memory along and I am very appreciative of that!
But I guess the biggest surprise was the fact that we have had another “Westleigh Girl” drop in.
Miriam mentioned Harry Blutstein.
Harry, my apologies. Somehow I don’t recall you at all, but thankfully Miriam did.
I would also like to thank you very much for sending me your photo.
We can now add some more information of historical importance.

I can also report that the blog has had several ‘hits’ from people overseas with very specific search queries so I am going to assume, rightly or wrongly, that some of our ex-pupils are in different countries.
