Lord Russell Johnston


Last week, whilst reading an obituary for Russell Johnston, I learned that he taught History at Liberton High from 1961- 1963. Do you remember him? Have you any interesting stories to share?

Alex Robertson memories

From Alex. Robertson

It is great to hear the old school group are having these celebrations. Unfortunately due to distance will not make it, however I would be glad to keep contact with any of my former friends, whom I made during 1960-1963 in 3B2 (prior to that I was at Fernieside Primary School).

While I am still active in sport, it is with regret that I heard (after the event) that we had lost Bruce Hay. I had the good fortune to know Bruce - and his brother David, well. Actually I gave Bruce his first rugby lessons on how to tackle in 1962 at the request of our PT teacher. Then, as we had few players, we mixed years to form a team and as a result we played together. In the years after we both left school it was always magic to chat together in the street, or at games (I later played for Musselburgh RFC).



Since 2002 I have been racing professionally in NASCAR here in the USA, which I enjoy a lot, as seen in some of my PR photos (attached). Plus I own my own Management Consulting business here San Diego, California, where I help design of professional TV equipment used by all the major TV companies in the world.

Home Economics

There is a new album on the right and it's from the Home Economics department. The pictures range from May 1959 when the Duchess of Kent opened the school right up to quite recently. Why not see if you're in any and let us know.
