It's 1912 and this is the class of S55/1 at Loanends National School.

If anyone out there has a complete photograph, I would love to borrow it to scan it to make it fairer for anyone looking at it also of course anyone who knows any of the pupils names, please let me know, I will send you as many copies as you would like without a watermark and also your own photograph back to you.

LOANENDS NATIONAL SCHOOL 3704
This is Loanends National School in 1922 and the class is S55/2 and the Headmaster was Mr. McLoughlin the lady Teacher is Unknown as well as the pupils.
The photograph came to me in a terrible state not only badly creased , scratched but also a hole in the middle! I have not made up any of the faces because that would not be fair, One girl in the front row has no face and next to her is a boy who was badly damaged. Now if anyone out there has a better copy I would love to borrow it to scan it to make it fairer for anyone looking and also the girls have gone to great lengths to dress up really nice.
