Phyllis Eastgate’s last class, Peckham Road, 1958
1958 · Peckham Road
Peckham Road 1958 was her last class – she is the one in the blue suit in the back row.
From the collection of Phyllis Eastgate, who taught the senior girls at Peckham Road. Her great-niece Julie Eastgate recalls on Voices of Kingstanding: “My great aunt taught the senior girls and did indeed teach German (and was strict but nice). She was pretty good at German and would visit friends over there who were also teachers … They arranged pen-friends between their respective pupils.”
