Today I have been approached by a resident who has recently moved into Goldings in the former print shop area, asking if the Old Boys and Barnardo's would be interested in a project to help restore the tower clock and mark it with a plaque of the participants who helped with the restoration.I think it's a project if it gets off the ground we should help with.A few years back when I was involved in the bench,John Cooper who was the caretaker of the Waterford Church approached on the same matter, as he restores antique clocks, so I will approach him with the view to take on the work,but I would welcome the Old Boys opinions on the matter,but I will follow it up.

This is a recent letter received from Mr Harry Clay, who was at Goldings
Dear Dave,
I am writing this letter to say I was at Goldings 1947-50 in the House of Aberdeen, school No 82 as a prefect followed by House Captain. Mr Bishop was Housemaster and I trained in the Woodwork Dept and was privileged to be a Wimbledon Ball Boy, unfortunately I will not be attending the re-union.
I am enclosing a cheque for £25-00 made out to the Goldings Old Boys Association.
If possible could you send me anything that would be of interest about my period at Goldings?
By coincidence the re-union falls on my 81st birthday, I do hope you all have a great time.
Yours Sincerely Harry Clay.
P.S. This is what make's running this site so enjoyable,and another Old Boy remembers him, John Sansom, so I'm hoping I can to get both of them in contact with each other
D.V.D. Photo's of the school and many other items are on the way to him shortly Dave.

Hello Len, I'm sure all Old Boys wish you a speedy recovery,and you will be sadly missed if you don't make it to the re-union,so what we will have to insist next year as a punishment you will be made to attend for two days,and will only be allowed old Jack Coopers "Pongy" for nourishment! All the best Len from all of us..speedy recovery!

Dear David,
Yes, I can confirm the details of the Cup Final
Just let me know who, if anyone will be coming so that we can look after them etc.
Please let Andy Braithwaite know if you wish to change anything on your contribution to the programme.
Best wishes, in some haste,
David
