The time now in Ruislip

The teachers in the back row from right to left are Mrs Wheeler, Miss Whelan, the Headmistress, Mrs Edwards (I think this is her name) who taught kindergarten and the last teacher I cannot remember her name but she taught ballet and elocution (both I think). I have been trying to remember exactly.

I am the girl sitting in front of Mrs Wheeler in the 2nd row with what looks like a bow in my hair.
The photo it taken in the back garden of the school. There was a huge bush that you can see in the background which I think was a rose bush and as children it was great to play in.

Miss Whelan lived at the school.

It was a girls school but became co-ed for a time during WW2. Principal's name was Nora Whelan, there were just two more teachers called Mrs Edwards and Mrs Wheeler .

Very little is known about this school, which was at 44 Pembroke Road (demolished for flats to be built) but it certainly existed as the above invoice shows, and still existed in 1952.. So do you know anything? If so please advise Ruislip Online
