Notre Dame Convent School,Plymouth

[lcopper01]

hi, I was wondering if anyone had any information about this school as I have searched the internet and found very little information about it. My grandmother and great aunt attended this school from 1925-1938.
Any information would be appreciated.
Thanks

This is possibly the same place:

Notre Dame Roman Catholic School, Looseleigh Lane, Derriford, Plymouth PL6 5HN
E-Mail: info [at] notredame [dot] plymouth [dot] sch [dot] uk

Drop them an email and see if they are able to help. They are bound to have an archive of past pupils and school history.

I do not know if it is possible after the amount of time has passed to get in touch with the person who started this thread. I attended this particular school and as stated above the school is situated in Looseleigh Lane but the school was not in Looseleigh Lane between 1925 and 1938. At this time the school was sited in Wyndham Square Plymouth but received a direct hit during the Blitz on Plymouth in April 1941. The school was evacuated to Teignmouth and returned to Wyndham Square in 1945 where it remained until about 1965 when it was then relocated to Looseleigh Lane. I do have some pictures of the convent plus some pictures of pupils around 1938/1940. If anybody knows how I can contact this person I would be grateful. I have sent a PM but it may or may not be received.

Hello Janet,

lcopper01 has not used the forum since September 2008 but may well have email notification enabled for the PM. However, they also have the email function working, so you could try sending an email direct.

Hello Jan,

Thank you for your note. I have done as you have suggested and sent an e mail via this site and will now wait to see if there is a reply. If there is a reply I can send another pm giving my e mail address and hopefully can respond that way. So many thanks for your help.
