Student Memories

This site is dedicated to the memories we have of the Tech ...

The cycle shed at the back of the school
Having to wear a crash helmet before it was the law
Being proud to have the BTI Crest on my helmet
George Henderson emphasising why we should never use an adjustable wrench..always use the correct tool for the job
Harold Molyneaux cutting the wires in my conduit after he caught me pulling an extra wire through with wires already in place
Playing cards at the foot of the stairs in the main lobby
Cross country race in the Inter-School sports
Finding excuses to not play soccer or cricket
Sitting at the back of the Chemistry Lab with Rocky Trott drawing cartoons during class
Walking to school and Mr. Crawford picking us up in his green Austin A40
The 12 noon fire siren test every day
The wind howling through the trees near the Technical Drawing classroom
Lunch and ping pong at the Friswells Hill Salvation Army Citadel
Beef Pies from DeGraffes
Morning Assembly, Mr. Crawford playing the piano
Mr. Maxwell, and the total command and control he had over the class.
The smell of the Chemistry Lab
George Pole
The cricket Pitch across the street on the corner
The week's camp at Ports Island, Mr. Reggie Ming in charge
Gregory Scott's drawings on the blackboard before class
Mrs.Bolton, the only female teacher, for a short while
Not having a clue how to do art, in Chesley Trott's class (this later changed, delayed action I guess)
