Do you recognise any of this smiling bunch?

This picture of the third year class at St Mary's Catholic Primary School at Crewe back in 1963 was found by former pupil Daniel Riley as he rummaged through his mother's old albums.

Daniel, 55, who lives at Burchmuir Close in Crewe and works for a CCTV firm, says the picture brought back fond memories of his days at the Dane Bank Avenue primary.

He said: "I think we were 10 years old in the picture and we're all smiling so we must have been having fun. Even our teacher Mrs Mason is smiling.

"At the back of the picture you can see the stage where we used to do our nativity plays.

"I still keep in touch with a couple of the guys on the picture but I want to share it with everyone so hopefully others will recognise themselves.

"I remember it was a very strict time and religion was everything but we still managed to have fun."
