Convent staff in the eighties

Those young farmers certainly proved popular. Thank you, Tom and Máire for all your offers of help with the names. BUT Vincent is the man to rescue this situation. He has all the names AND he has the other half of the photo.

Apparently the farm school operated in the community college in the afternoons in the late fifties and early sixties. It was very popular by all accounts. Patsy O'Sullivan who is in the photo, 2nd from left at the back, has agreed to give me all the lowdown, so watch this space....

And now to something completely different...a photo with names supplied by Anne Dillon. You might need a magnifying glass or the zoom button.
