I remember Mr Gay the Head in 1969 getting us all into the hall to watch the 1st moon landing. I am so glad he did this now...

@Digital_twiddler... I went to Woodchurch Road Primary in the '50's. A Mr Gay was there. A tall chap who had bad scarring to his face. The story was he was a fighter pilot in the war and was shot down in flames?

Is this the same Mr Gay I wonder? A kindly soul I recall.

The same Mr. Gay who was Headmaster at Rock Ferry Primary when I was there 1961-1964. A really nice man.
