Miss Bashford - a teacher's tale

https://www.historiccoventry.co.uk/articles/content.php?pg=miss-bashford Many thanks to Rob for publishing, arranging and being so tolerant/patient when correcting my typos! Hope you all enjoy it - some fascinating photographs and tales - including some audio clips.

Congratulations to Simon and Rob for two amazing articles. What wonderful memories Miss Bashfiord has shared. The second feature about the 1939 IRA bomb is very moving and a very poignant account. Well done and thank you both for publishing them.

Hi I am in awe of the depth & feeling that oozes out as we read & view the pictures that are alive, even though they are memories. Thank you so much.

Thank you Brother J for an excellent write up for a lovely lady.

I so enjoyed reading this and looking at the photographs. As my two children attended Stivichall School in the 70s I recognise some of the children and most of the teachers and also remember Barbara Law. I was eagerly looking to see if either of my children were on the photographs but unfortunately not! I recall going to see the production of Oliver and how good it was. I now have a Grandson attending the New Stivchall School which is very nice,however he is leaving this Summer to go to Finham Park,where have those years gone.
