Wasn't it Colin Reed not Colin Silk? and the name Robert Hooper seems to ring a bell. Marion Wilson was the first girl I ever kissed. Graham Terry on the end. Hazel Underwood was always such a minx

Nice to see your name pop up Peter! We can't have seen in each other in more than 40 years. Yes you're right - Colin Silk was in our year, but not in this class, it was Colin Reed. And Graham Terry - the name now comes back. You're probably right about Robert Hooper - I remember he was the son of a vicar and didn't stay that long.

Yes it was Colin Reed we used to play Robin Hood in the playground were there was a long rope he used to swing on, he was Robin Hood and Maureen Saunders was always Maid Marion. I think the vicar's son was David Hooper.

Hello its me again I think this picture is of Meeching Infants, middle row next to John Poulton is Glynis Herriott, next to her is Alexia Kennedy then Edith Hickman. I can remember when these photos were taken we all got excited because it was a big thing the photographer had a big black camera with a piece of black cloth at the back which he got underneath to take the photo bit different to the digital cameras you can get nowadays.

I can confirm that the boy, middle row, right hand end is DAVID Hooper.  Alas he died in September 2014, shortly after celebrating his 60th birthday in September 2014. His father, the Revd Robert Hooper was Rector of Newhaven between 1959-1965.
