Denis Rush,
A blast from the past, I'm sure we were in the same classes Denis with Sean Collins, Jim Molloy, Marty Blaney, Ozzy Bailey.
Hope you are well

Dear Greg
Were you related to teacher Mr McAvera? Excellent teacher. Became a lecturer at St Mary's Training College I think

[Greg McAvera]

Dear Paul,
Brian is my brother: about 30 years ago he gave it all up and became a writer/playwright. He lives  outside Downpatrick and if you Google his name you'll see what he's been up to.
All the best

Greg

Hi.
I went to St Teresas from 1964 to 1970, my brother John went from 1965 to 1971. For some reason my brother David went to Holy Trinity

Hi Bhelena. I have sent you a PM. I posted this picture a couple of years back from an original copy, and every so often, someone discovers it and re-posts it. I think it may have been taken by one of the staff, possibly Mr (Tom) McGuinness.
