Newbold Verdon Primary School
Playtime 1962/1963

Here are a nice couple of pictures kindly shared by Wendy Boulter. The first one above shows children at play as nurses. Wendy remembers the children as being from left to right:

(Nurse) Wendy Boulter, (possibly) Pamela Baker, ?, ?, Tina Smithurst and possibly holding the doll Christine Potts.

If anyone can recall otherwise please message me.

The second is a school portrait taken in 1948 of Wendy's sister Christine Boulter now Christine Gardner.

Many thanks to Wendy for sharing these photos.
