    I am a British Citizen and have been living in Lesotho, Southern Africa since 1983.
    I lived in Herne Hill and East Dulwich from 1940-1983. I attended Dulwich Hamlet Infant and Primary School before attending Mary Datchelor Grammar School for Girls.. from 1948-1955. I then went to Lincoln Teachers Training College from 1955- 1957.
    Whilst at Lincoln I studied History and wrote a thesis about Camberwell. My completed work was left at Dulwich Library where I thought it would be helpful for other Students in the area. I do not know if it is still there. I would be interested to find out.
    After qualifying as a teacher I taught for 2 years in Hampshire and then retuned to London, to work at Heber Road Primary School, East Dulwich. from 1959-1978.

    I have many memories of my time there and will be writing about them on the, ” East Dulwich Forum. ”
    Yours Faithfully Anne Dyson(Ncheke)
