Now some pages from a 1981 Craigie High School magazine.
This issue covers the period from the end of 1980 to the beginning of 1981, and because 1980 was the 10th anniversary of the school, the first couple of pages take a look back over the decade. It refers to things like the first 300 pupils to attend CHS back in '70 (my mob) and also has a reminder of the 4 Houses that were set up in the early 70's. However, for some reason, CHS didn't retain the House system for very long.
Also news about new teacher arrivals and a couple of retirements, including Mr Higgins, the art teacher who designed the school badge.
The next couple of pages are an interview with Radio Tay DJ, Graham Stuart, the chit chat conducted by Mandy McQuire & Karen Conway.
Lastly, it's party time at CHS - 3 different parties in fact - first being a Fancy Dress Disco for Hallowe'en, followed by their Christmas Masquerade Ball, complete with visit from Santa, and finally another good night was had at the St Valentines Day Disco.
A few photos of the pupils in costume too - just click onto the pages to view the larger size.
I can tell the DJ played The Gap Band's "Oops Upside Your Head" anyway!!
Thanks to Neale Elder.
