Memories of Teachers at Petersham Public School

I wonder if some of you can help me remember the names of some of the teachers we had at Peto Public

  • Mr Harry Baltins Class 6A in 1963
  • Mr Hill taught 6B in 1963.  He was also the Principal
  • Mrs May taught 5A in 1962
  • Mrs Penny taught 4A in 1961
  • Mrs Wridgway taught 3A in 1960
  • Who taught 2A in 1959?
  • Who taught 1A in 1958?
  • Who taught 1B in 1956?
  • Who taught Kindergarten in 1956

Who was the very old male teacher with a white moustache who ran rugby league at the school?
Was it Miss Searle who ran netball and softball and PE generally for girls?  She also had a normal class.  Was is 4B?
