Comments

Peter, Thanks for the photo. I've inserted it with your comment on the VW Kombi page.

Please can I ask where & when this photo was taken, and the name of the school the children attended?

Regards, David

That was my class photo (1959-1960)  from Rosaryhill School on Stubb Road, Wanchai. The original school debut in 1959 was converted from the St. Albert priory where Catholic missionary from the Dominican order of Spain lived.  The old school was demolished in the mid sixties.  I was told the priory was once commissioned as a military hospital during the war.  Maybe some of you may have a recollection of that.  I remember seeing graves at the school yards when I was young

Thanks Peter, I've added in the date & location.
