I have just found your site about Goldings. I've been reading about the first boys and how they entered Goldings for the first time. I can remember how I arrived the first time and although I lived in Goldings from 1958 -1966 I was not a Goldings boy but the son of Mr Fred Sheppard who was at first a teacher and later became Principal of the School block. My father passed away in April 2003 but never he forgot Goldings or Barnados, he was himself a "Dickies Boy" as a young boy in and after being in a foster home till he was about 14 he then moved to Goldings to learn a trade and took up carpentry, when he came back from the war he was offered the chance to learn a proffesion so he went to College and became a teacher. Having always kept in touch with Barnados he was offered the post of teacher at Goldings and accepted straight away. He later gave up teaching to live from his painting (Shortly before he would have retired) but whenever he held an exhibition he always insisted that a collection box be put out for Barnados and every year before Christmas he sent a cheque to Barnados.
I can remember a lot about Goldings and many stories, as a Staff son I heard a lot about the goings on in the school. Much later when we had left Goldings and I was a lot older my Mother and Father would often talk about some of the "goings on". Looking through the pictures and names on your site I can remember a lot of the staff some of whose children I played with like Mr Tordorf 's son, our neighbour or Mr Stackwood'son and one of the vicars sons but I cant remember now which vicar it was. We lived in the next to last staff house and after Mr Millar the head of printing died we moved into his house and lived there until we left in the summer of 1966.
MORE WILL BE POSTED ON THE NOTICE BOARD
