Hi Maureen! We were part of a group of classmates from that generation of KHS students and I suspect they are all over the world! As a metallurgist I was involved in the mining industry in many parts of southern Africa. I live in South Africa and have been retired for 20 years.

Hi Ian great to hear from you. I’ve often thought about you and wondered where you were.
I am now living in Scotland.

Hello Maureen!
I got a surprise when I saw your name on this site which I happened upon by chance! Your father left a lasting impression on me with his sense of humour in my 3 years of chemistry!
My wife and I visited Kitwe Boys High in 2005 – I was the second old boy to do so and we were given a warm reception and a tour by the headmaster!

It’s always a great boost in life when you have people who believed in you.

Thanks for the trip down memory lane, more importantly for the meticulous cataloguing of names of pupils and staff. I appear in at least one of the photos (rugby). The pleasure of seeing fellow pupils whose names one had forgotten suddenly triggers flashbacks of incidents long forgotten in the ‘mists of time’. My last year at KBHS was 1965.

If I’m not mistaken, you had a younger brother whom I would have had more to do with than you. Anyway thank you for the memories, particularly since the closure of the ‘Great North Road’ site.
