Try this one??  I think the original image that was sent to me was scanned as a colour photo.  I opened it up in photoshop, and converted the picture to grayscale.  I think this will fix it???

Hello, has anyone got a picture of Miss Ryan's class around 1949. My mum Mary Cleland and my dad William Divers are both in this photo. Thanks

That photo of St Mary's Duntocher is actually Duntocher Public School. My sister Madeleine Turnbull is the third from the right in the second row from the front. It must have been taken in 1953 because we came to Australia that year. The teacher is Mrs. Bex.

Hi All, this is the public school, I think this photo was taken when the prefab classrooms were being demolished at St Marys.  Goldenhill school didn't open till 1955. I would think children  are a mixture of Duntocher and Hardgate pupils.
