Hi Dave Thanks for the update,. Yes I was in Kinnaird in 58 and then moved into Cairn,s till I left in Dec 61. I started in Carpentry "Couldn't cope with holding Saws & Chisels in the cold winter.Tried Shoe Shop with on of my mates David "Sherlock" Holmes and then under EMBO'S encouragement went into Gardening with my other mate Ian Parks. Before I left I had a spell as staff dinning room waiter with Miss Roe who was supposed to be deaf but on one occassion I was serving the roast and when I got to the stuffing she heard me ask staff "do you want stuffing" to quite a few giggle's I wondered at the time. No I wasn't in the band or any sport team,although I did swim and played tennis to a degree and trained for Wimbledon under Pop & Rev Nixon but collapsed with the heat, so wasn't allowed to go to Wimbledon. I was in the school choir and was confirmed when Rev Appleyard was there along with Shirlock and Ian.Will speak to you soon. Regards to All Keith.

I remember a hymn that the governor the reverent MacDonald wrote it was in The Goldings Hymn Book during my time there the first verse goes like this !!
Over the storms of life
Wisdom still cries.
Stern and prolong the strife.
Valiant arise.
Why sleep the hour away.
Brave men don't cower away.
Soon fades the flower away.
And lost is the prize.
