On page 48 of the book is a photo of some schoolchildren with the Granville Slack sports trophy. I have learned that they attended Woodnook School, and the headmaster is Mr Barton ( who was succeeded by his son as headmaster)
Which Woodnook School are you refering too. There were two.

Woodnook Council School, which in the 1930 had Frank Heys as Headmaster, I went to that one.

Woodnook St Mary's, which was in Belfield Rd, my father went to that one, when he wasn't playing truant following the Accy Pals round the town, his brother was a Pal.
