Neil Gandhi

So one year ago yesterday on 20th June 2024 my old dad departed this world he had a good life and left Blackpool Victoria hospital with two legacies being a good cardiac unit and the MRI scanner so tonight me and my mum are spreading some of his ashes at glasson dock obviously a big chunk will also go to India and some will go to Scotland too as we all have an affinity with the beautiful country so Royal Deeside will be where some ashes are spread so happy travels to my dad and he gets to travel first class around the world for free.

Glasson

 

John Hodgson (1952 - 58)

John has been in hospital. We wish him well.

This says it all

What is the world coming to when the excuse for not choosing Baines is the colour of the uniform. It shows these parents in a poor light when they way they look seems to matter more than education. 

Items for the Bainesian and Alumni News 

The Bainesian and the Alumni News section of the website is very important to let other members of the Alumni know what is happening. 

If you have any items for the Bainesian or Alumni News then please email me at Bainesalumni@btinternet.com and I will endeavour to publish the information. No information will be published without checking and getting prior permission.  

The FPA and Alumni

Some have asked about the association between the FPA and Baines Alumni.  Baines Alumni is available to all members of the school community, past pupils, teaching and associated staff and Governors and is free to all. 

Where the Former Pupils Association is open to past pupils and is fee paying. 

To join the FPA there is a cost of £10 per year and this helps run the association as well as gives donations to the school. 

If you wish to join either the Alumni or the FPA then please contact me then I will pass on your details.
