Try contacting your school to see if they have a copy in their archives.

Hi optomark,

These restorers are the best, but these pictures are badly damaged!

I shall watch with interest as the magic unfolds!

Thanks for your efforts so far guys.......its a big improvment. The pic is around 1974. It was a Catholic school in Co. Durham and and my memories of it are all happy ones.
