KGS teacher/pupil netball match circa 1963
The photo was taken by John Taylor. I deduce that it was a teacher/pupil match from the fact that the two main protagonists in the picture are Mrs Margaret Nixon, the domestic science teacher and Ingrid Thomson (now Jolly), a pupil at that time.
The photographer in the crowd is probably David Oddie. Other faces, such as that of Wilbert Rendall, are recognisable.
The wing of the old KGS building on the right of the picture was Mrs. Laird's room, now the OIC Council Chamber.
