  • I went to this school from 1959-1964 I think I was in 5c in 1964. If you were in my class can you remember the name of the gym teacher?

  • Was at GGSS from 1963 to 1970 and remember Mr Robson well. History ‘A’ level only had 3 participants once we got near to the exam – Jane, Felicity and myself so we were almost tutored. Met him again when he was pushing a buggy round the Town Centre years later. Then on the Supply Teaching round in the 1990’s when I just couldn’t call him Colin. Memories!

  • I remember Colin Robson from when I attended Skegness Grammar School, 1959-66. He was one of the few teachers who encouraged me and I responded, ending up as a Head of Humanities and the author of several history textbooks. All down to Colin’s inspiration. We also both played for Skegness Cosmos FC- he was a creative midfield player. Thanks, Colin.

  • Colin Robson is still around. He lives in the Chells area with his wife Carmen. We see him every Sunday at Church.

  • I remember a classical concert held here. Famous guitarist who played classical Spanish compositions. It was beautiful. Does anyone know what became of the history teacher Mr Colin Robson or the geography teacher Mrs Seale?
