st teresa's convent sunbury-on-thames

I've just found this thread and think its hilarious!
Is it a spoof?
Or do the contributors think GN is an offshoot of Friends Reunited?
I'm amazed at how many grans appear to have been convent educated not that they appear on any of the other threads- must be a spoof!
Any minute now well be seeing the arrival of the Spanish Inquisition ! Nobody ever expects them

Yes I was there then and I remember the 2 PE teachers what happened to them ? And miss golden too and miss foster and sister Eileen, sister Rita

I was at st Theresa’s with sister Cyril and miss falkener I think the deputy was called she was Irish and always used to say ‘2 by 2’ in a real Irish accent to line up for dinner lol

I was at St Teresa's from autumn 1963 until 1969/70 Sr Cyril was head mistress and Sr Peter taught biology.

Ahh well obviously they think it is ok to give full names
Please remember this is a public forum
Wouldn’t private message be safer

Yes, please be careful what you share.

So many names that we’ve never seen before 🤔 Let me think.

Hiya, I was there! (Margaret Goulden). Mum died in 2021.

Starting to meet up with some from school days.....

Hiya, I remember you well and the others I think. I seem to remember going out with you the night before my 16th birthday and getting drunk ........ my memory is a bit dodgy though! Maggie (Margaret Goulden)

Maybe there is some secret code afoot.😊

None of them are listening they just steam on very rudely not at all how’s newby would normally behaved
Do others think it may be a totally made up thread ???

What’s odd is that most of these posters have never posted before 🤔
I know what I think.

Good grief and so it goes on !!!🙄

😁

We've tried telling warning them.
They don't seem to care.

Do not put real names, please……

Good grief and so it goes on !!!🙄

Stumbled across this website as I recently read an article (BBC and Daily Mail) regarding asbestos exposure relating to a PE teacher at St Teresa's -Mrs Julia Browne. Very sad. I just about remember Mrs Browne. You mentioned a teacher Mrs Goulden - again vague memory but I believe her daughter Margaret was in my year. I attended St Theresa's from 1971 - 1976. Hello to anyone who remembers. My name is Caroline. Sister Josephine and Sister Dympha - lasting influences.

This thread is 5 years old Ki78

I loved Sister Peter she was my favourite teacher.. Biology was incredible with her. Remember the woods and St Bernadette grotto.
Sister Teresa was headmistress. Was there from about 1955 to 1959..
Wish I could remember the girls names in my class. My nickname is Kitty but think the nuns caled me Catherine. Catherine Hide..older sister by five years Elizabeth, younger sister by two years Nicia. Anyone out there remember us ???

Hands up in despair!!!!!
obviously they weren’t taught to read at St Teresa s

i give up.

My name was Chrysanta Foster and I attended St Teresa's Convent between 1970 and 1976. My form teacher throughout was Mrs Goulden. My friends still are Daniela, Monica and Amanda, Maria. Does anyone remember us? Sister Cyril was our Head Teacher.

Just found this whilst on a long bus journey... Jennifer, it's Helen

Without spoiling the thread, I agree, certainly, quite naive and foolish to give full names.
No matter how much we emphasis the pitfalls of giving full names on a PUBLIC forum, people continue to do so.

Not everyone reading these posts is an innocent old lady or gentleman.
Quite a few on here have been approached by scammers by PM in the past.

this is not really what meet-ups is about.
so you might do better to move it to chat section.
ask GN HQ, they'll move it.
as to revealing actual names on open forum, i think it is unwise. such a lot of ID fraud around.
why not stick to user-names on here; then eg. bigmouse can private message to tessy terror, and reveal themselves as old girls susan box and mary moore.
