Morgan Academy Snapshots from the '50s.

Snapshots are time capsules. Take the annual Sports Days depicted in some of the photos below. Many people, pupils, family members and school staff, attended, assisted or competed, and had a fun afternoon together. Photos such as these may be the only records of such events apart from the fading memories of those who attended, soon to be gone. I hope these photographs bring back some pleasant memories. If you have any snapshots from your Morgan days, please share them with us.

Centre-spread article on Morgan from People's Journal, Saturday June 13, 1953. (It was too large to scan in one piece with my equipment, so I had to do it in overlapping pieces.) It's rather hard work, but if you're interested ... there are 6 columns of text which can be followed in this order: 2,3; 2,3; 2,3 then 4,5; 4,5; 4,5.
