- Our classification: Photos
- Photos sent to ntz.info by Alan on 8 March 2005. Some of the photos are from Helen Grazier in Western Australia - Mrs Goode, the school Matron, was her grandmother.
Alan said: "I went to Arusha from 1935 to 1943. Mrs Goode was the Matron and I remember her very well. I was only 5 years old. I can still taste the tablespoon of liquid quinine received from her every night - and feel the red hairbrush that delivered some well deserved whacks! We loved her dearly.
I have a few photographs of pupils from that era."

School Photograph
School photograph. 1939. My ugly mug is between Miss Reed and Mrs Horn - two rows back. I have identified (I think) the lady seated on the left of Mrs Goode. She is Dorothy Thompson who joined as a nurse in the East African Regiment and was drowned on board the Khedive Ismael, a troopship that was torpedoed in the Indian Ocean on its way to India in WW2.
