1959 Carol Green

Mayfield Memories  

I left Mayfield in 1959. Worked at Shell International in London for several years in Human Resources, then married and trained as a teacher. Moved from Essex to Hertfordshire and took time out to look after my daughter and then … Continue reading →

Mayfield Memories  

I was at Mayfield Girls School from 1947 to 1951. I remember Miss Tappenden was the Headmistress at that time. You may have read in the local newspaper the account of my mother, Jane Stephenson, falling while cleaning the windows. That … Continue reading →

1959 Christine Cawthorne

Mayfield Memories 7

Don’t suppose anyone will remember me, but thought I’d post a photo for fun. I left Mayfield School in 1959, now living in SE London. Retired and enjoying life. I’d be interested to know what happened to Margaret Clarke, Hillary (Lynn) … Continue reading →
