I was there long before that. I was only there for two years but Mt Lovatt was there the year I left 1957.
The question I have is, when did he retire?

Dewi Lloyd was headmaster in the mid 60's to mid 70's as my Brother was always having run-ins with him, but not sure when Mr Lovatt retired.
I know Mr Lloyd retired in late 70's.
