Portsmouth High School’s class of 1956 invited to stroll down memory lane
A nostalgia-fest took place when a group of former Portsmouth High School pupils were invited to take a stroll down memory lane.
They group – all pupils back in 1956 – have met regularly out of school. But PHS Head Jane Prescott welcomed them back to their former Southsea-based school for lunch and tours.
Happy memories were shared, with stories including the group climbing onto the roof of the High School to sunbathe.
They also recalled times of meeting the Portsmouth Grammar School boys at the gate onto Castle Road.
