The sport club still exists and that is what is at Beauchief, where the old school playing fields used to be. The boys now go to Notre Dame - 40 years too late for me unfortunately!!! Hi I quite agree. I went to Oakbrook which was independent of the girls at Notre Dame on Convent Walk. When I left at 10 if was about to be amalgam,ated with Convent Walk but in my day it was only girls but we did have one boy, poor thing, for a while. I remember his well and when we sat down to lunch in the dining room he sat next to me. We had horsemeat for the main course and he could make his ears wiggle in a funny way.
