| High Jump. David Wells-Cole: I thought I would send you this photo of high-jump practice on the main cricket field in c. 1956. The jumper is (I think) Paul Coleman; others in the picture, all 'jumping' as well, are from left to right (the ones I can remember): Mountney, ?, ?, Mortimore, Davies-Williams, Evans, ?, Norsworthy, ? In the background is the late cricket pavilion, which I believe was presented to the school by Sir Pelham Warner, president of M.C.C. |

| Choir 1956. Tim Watson writes: I recently came across the attached pictures of the St Michael's choir in around 1956 or 57. Kenneth Beard's death reminded me to send them to you. The head choristers were Unwin (left) and Smith (who sadly died on the rugby field). I was also in the choir and also appear to feature in the goup shot of the scout troop! |

| Tim Jones (1949-54) writes: I have a photograph of the 1954 rugby XV (below).It was actually taken at the end of the Summer term that year which is why we are wearing cricket shirts.This is because the redoubtable Miss Ashley decided that the original photo taken the previous term was not good enough for publication in the magazine. The name are,from the left: Back row- John Scriven,Christopher Evans,Paul Drummond,Stephen Craig,Julian Dams,Francis Sykes. Middle row-Gus Wheeler,David Timmis,Tim Jones,Nick Jones,Christopher Bett. Front row-Chris Rhys,Peter Davies,John White,Michael Thomas. |
