Thanks to Jock Laidlaw for this photo.  Jock said that "I think the teacher was Mr. Fagg. I am at the extreme right of the back row. In the middle, and clearly more interested in the girl beside him, is Johnnie Inverdale, now to be seen presenting sport on the BBC. - Names I remember, but can’t necessarily place include: Philip Messom; David Crane; Philip Pound; John England; Hugh Gilbert; the wee guy in the front was a Barrington I think and his father taught at the school."

Royal Naval School

A pic from 1963 (July) I was called Patsy Cole and had a brother at the same naval school who is a few years younger
called Nicholas Cole. I wonder if anyone remembers us. We lived firstly in Sembawang Hills and then moved to Sembawang Springs into a brand
new bungalow which was on a hill in quite a large estate. I remember the ladies coming to the gate to get potatoe peelings for the pigs
and seeing goats in the street.  My dad was with the fleet air arm in the naval stores and was called Bob Cole.

Andrew Cable

Andrew was in Singapore from 1966 to 1969.  He attended the RN School before moving up to Bourne Secondary School.  This photo is of him sitting in the garden at 54 Arab School Road.  His best friend at the time was Uda Suba.

My thanks to Janet Laidlaw for this and the following three photos with her descriptions. 

This one was taken at the RN School and shows Mr Silk, the Deputy Headmaster, shaking hands with the Duke of Edinburgh.

The Headmaster, Commander Horton, I think is looking on between them.

I think this school concert at the RN School was in 1965.

I am standing third from the right, the girl next to me was Julia Buckle, and the girl on the far right was Susan Jewel.

The boy standing in the middle of the picture, holding a book I think  is Richard Middleton, who went on to win ‘The Krypton Factor’ on TV. I think the boy next to him was called Paul, and the boy to his left was Stephen Brown.

Another RN School concert 1966.

This is a swimming gala at the RN School. I think the Headmaster standing on the platform was Commander Johnson, and the girl standing on the far right was called Josephine Cocker.

Shaun Bratherton

Shaun said.  I was at the Royal Navy School around 1966-68 when I went to Bourne, my father was a Royal Marine and we lived at first near Sembawang and then RAF Seleter I am enclosing a photo of sports day at the Royal Navy School where I think I still hold the high jump record for that school.
