Thank you to Carole Manson for sending the photo above to me, together with this photo taken one year earlier:

Royston Primary School, 1948 - Pupils aged about 10 ©

I was impressed by the number of pupils' names that Carole remembers from her Primary School, almost 70 years ago.

Perhaps somebody else will recognise a few of the remaining pupils and send an email to me, giving their names.
