John Said - "The Halkirk JS School reunion feature reminded me that I have
a photo of the 1958 teachers, which is attached. The lady on the left
(facing) of the front row is Miss Swanson. The man in the back row is my
father Syd Marwick. I can't remember the other names but the headmaster in
the centre of the front row may be Mr Morrison."

From Ernie White
Miss Swanson is my Aunt who I am pleased to report is alive and well.
At the time I believe she taught one day a week at Halkirk School and the
remainder of the week at Castletown School where I was a pupil from 1954
to approx 1960. She left Castletown (with her mother Jessie Swanson)
to teach at a school in Bearsden, Glasgow and then moved to teach in
Sanquhar, Dumfriesshire where she retired. She celebrated her 90th
Birthday last year and can remember everyone in the photo. |
