A FORMER pupil of Boteler Grammar School now living in China has been looking back on his school days.
David Morton has been going through old pictures and found this picture of staff during his time there (1965-1972) and two others are class photos from that era.
He has remember many of them but wants help from other alumni to identify the others.
