Buchan Street I remember a Robert Lindsay and a Brian Cochran’s, night have known me as Harry

Then ther was Wolseley Street school great teacher was Mrs Wallerstein and headmistress a Mrs Bryce, got a photo of the winning school football team with Jim Baxter at the back must be about 1968, remember a Lego Dickenson, Peter Reid, George Sutherland, a Willie, a Marty and Shuggy and Donald Campbell

Last one was Adelphi Secondary School where sports master was a Mr Curran and I had a mate called Hames Callaghan.

Sad thing is nobody remembers where I live, born in Kames Street opposite the Dixon’s Blazes and at the Gorbals Cross, Glasgow City Council tell me street at the Blazes never existed, anyway be good to hear from anyone!

Nope still nothing doing about Buchan Street School, Wolseley Street School where we won the cup in the mid sixties, headmistress was a Mrs Bryce and of course who didn’t end up at Adelphi Secondary Terrace school!

It seems it was only me

Henrysix,

Did you ever find out any more information about your school?

I am not on Facebook but my family are and I saw something under a name like Gorbals Old School History.
I think it was posted by a Robert Lindsay.

He mentioned that everyone called the school Buchan Street but it was actually called Gorbals Primary.

I know I'm not a Weegie but it all sounds interesting.

I was looking at photos on another site but they were taken in 1940's and I thought it would be a bit before your time. ::):
