Clapham Terrace Junior School pupils of the 1950s have plenty to remember from that era, as these photographs show.

They were submitted by Viv Watts, who can be seen lurking in the background on both.

The group photograph was taken outside Leamington station in 1952 as the pupils gathered for a trip to London to see the Trooping of the Colour. The teachers in the background include the headmaster, Mr Baxter, who was once Mayor of Leamington.

The other photograph is of a Rose Queen festival which was held at the school in 1953 (coronation year) and 1954. The Rose Queens were Jenny Maddocks and Jeni Eales. 

Mrs Watts said: "I remember us singing Rose of England and Land of Hope and Glory and dancing round the maypole."

She added: "A group of us from those years have already met up but if anyone else is interested in joining us or would like a copy of either of the photographs they can ring Kay on 419923, Janet on 336733 or Vivienne on 429867."
