Does the school still exist today?  If so - have you tried writing to them direct to see if they have what you want?

Park School as it was in 1950-1955 does not exist anymore.  There is a new school built on the other side of Park Avenue.
Whitley or North Shields Libraries may have pictures.

Thanks for your response

I have tried Whitley Bay library without success. Have contacted North Shields Library

I went to Park Junior School 1949-1954.  If you want a photo of the school then maybe the Whitley Guardian may have an old photo which appeared in the paper before the school was pulled down.  You could also just google it and see what comes up.

I still have my 2nd and 4th year photos taken in the playground with just the building in the background so not much seen there.
