John Warner - 1961 to '66
After reading ”Marise’s Memory” item, I recalled the caretaker - Mr Reg Harmsworth. He was caretaker whilst I was at The Tech and he would probably have been there until around 1964-65 when he left and became caretaker at Wellesbourne School.
My father was the groundsman at Wellesbourne School and became friendly with Reg Harmsworth, and I remember him telling me that one of his reasons for leaving the Tech was his dislike of Harry Ward.
One of Harry’s punishments was to assign an "errant boy" to assist Mr Harmsworth with janitorial duties after school. A little unfair on Mr Harmsworth I felt. I always found Mr Harmsworth to be a friendly enough sort. A Mr. Davis (Davies?) took over after Mr Harmsworth left.
