According to the Archives, it took place in 1975, with the closest guess being 1976. There has also been some debate, on the Old Girls\u2019 Facebook page, about the identity of the students so we will keep you posted if we arrive at any definite conclusions!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>One of this week\u2019s photographs, from the Archives, shows video equipment being used in the classroom.
