FORMER classmates are celebrating a milestone in their lives by holding a reunion.
Pupils who left the old Leeholme Secondary Modern School, near Bishop Auckland, in 1967, are getting together again to mark their own half centuries.
One of them, Anne Brown, who was Anne Jones, has spent 18 months tracking down old friends and teachers for a reunion next month. But she has been unable to trace English teacher John Parker, who used to live at Woodlands, in Rickleton, near Chester-le-Street.
Mrs Brown said: "Sadly, our school is no longer there, but we all hold lots of dear memories of our final schooldays."
She can be contacted at Tarn Cottage, 67 Malcolm Road, Peterculter, Aberdeen. AB14 0XB, telephone (01224) 732296.
