Used to go here in the sixties after going to the Odeon cinema. After a couple of pints would go to the chip shop opposite for supper, lovely.

I think my grandfathers Aunt worked here at the time of the 1911 census. Does anyone know if there are records kept from this time so that I can try to verify if I have the right lady or not.

Thanks

Denise

I attended this school from 1945 until 1948. My religion is Church of England not Catholic but after my mother was left as a widow during the war, she chose this school because she thought that the Nuns would be kinder than ordinary teachers, which in my case they were kind and I will never forget Mother Columbia all dressed in her white Nun's robes. I loved her! I was there from age 6 until age 9 when my mother decided to take me away because of an argument with the Nuns. Apparently I was dancing on the stage with whopping cough during one of the parents visiting days, although I did have by liberty bodice on (which in itself annoyed my mother). My best friend was a girl called Angela and I think I still have a picture of her. It would be lovely to find her.

I boarded for a few weeks when there was a emergency in the family. Luckily I had a torch to use so I could read in bed! I had to be one step ahead of the Nuns so I wouldn't get caught. Looks like the dormotories hadn't altered that much when I stayed!!!

I bordered from 1965-1967. It looks quite the same. Except there was a wall in between cubicles. For more privacy, a sink, wardrobe, chest of drawers, night table.

I was a boarder at this school in about 1965 and it was in this chapel at morning mass that I fainted. I was sitting first row on the right. I have very fond memories of this school.

Comment 2

Pauline Newman from Stony Stratford posted this comment on Thursday 27 January 2011 23:04:00.

I was a day girl at the convent from 1968. The chapel was very beautiful. Such a shame that the Convent was demolished.

Comment 3

John Barrett from Reigate posted this comment on Thursday 23 February 2012 17:38:00.

I saw the last of the roof being removed from this Chapel on 22 February. It was the curved piece above the altar. The site is being levelled for housing.

Comment 4

Mary Poole new marti from Cotswolds oxon posted this comment on Monday 16 November 2015 08:08:00.

I was a boarder from 1964 to 1968. I vividly remember the dormitory and the daily mass in the chapel. The only way we could be excused from 06.30 mass was to go for a cross country run! Does anyone remember sister Jerome and sister Emmanuel?

Comment 5

Joan Evertitt from Farnham posted this comment on Monday 11 April 2016 17:02:00.

Hello Mary Poole, I went to St Josephs from 1960 to 1964 and I remember Sister Jerome and Sister Emmanuel.I can't say that I was happy at the school however I would love to hear from any of the girls in my year. I can remember Jacko Bateman Ann Connelly Karen Clark.

Comment 6

Elizabeth Heyer from Steeple Bumpstead posted this comment on Thursday 11 August 2016 22:09:00.

I was at the school with my twin sister Jane for about 3 years - about 1963 to 1967. We hated it. The nuns were cruel and their behaviour was at odds with their apparent religious beliefs.

I remember Penny I was a boarder when she was there, I kept in touch with Sister Jerome who later became Sister Nescall she died in her 90's. I was at the convent 1948 to 1954.

Comment 9

Maria Victoria Garcia Azuero from Los Angeles, California posted this comment on Thursday 06 September 2018 19:28:03.

I remember Reverend Mother Bernard. I was a boarder from Colombia. Very little English. One day, at noon, I wanted to go to the Post Office in town, Redhill. Instead, when asked by Sister Jerome, 1966, ¿Where are you going? I responded to the City to post some letters for my family. Little did I Know that City is London. Soooo, Sister Jerome was infuriated. She said: You need to go and talk to Reverend Mother. Off I went. Knock on door. Yes, Enter. Me: Reverend Mother. Yessss... ¿What have you done? So I told her. And here eyes became giant. ¿What? ¿Are you going to London on you lunch break? Noooo! To town. Redhill. To Post Office, to send letters to my family. Ohhhh! She began to laugh so hard. And then Reverend Mother explained to me the difference between City (London) and town (Redhill).

Comment 10

P.A Bateman from Llanwdra posted this comment on Saturday 28 December 2019 21:47:14.

My name was Penny Wilson when I was at the Convent I 1954 ish. I remember Sister Jerome and what a sarcastic person she was. Sister Rita was head mistress then and she would march about you could hear her coming. Not a happy place for me.

Comment 11

María Victoria Garcia Azuero from Cartagena, Colombia posted this comment on Monday 08 May 2023 21:11:49.

The chapel was beautiful. My cubicle was right next to the hall which communicated our cubicles with the choir’s chapel. I suppose in another era, boarders could go down to mass from the cubicles. I loved to go the chapel and just pray, through that door, without being caught by sister Bernard.

Comment 12

Maria Victoria Garcia Azuero from Cartagena, Colombia posted this comment on Monday 08 May 2023 21:20:54.

Apologies. Reverend Mother was Bernard. Sister Pascal took care and slept on the third floor with all the boarders. She would draw the curtain without any notice. Just to check and see you were busy. Sister Jerome would do the same. One time I had a nasty cold. And one of the boarders brought me a tray with food. I was very hungry. As I am eating dinner, all of a sudden, I hear footsteps and the curtain is being drawn sharply. Says sister Jerome: you are not ill at all, if you are eating. Tomorrow, down to class!
