Lynette Manning "Looks like my Grandad Henry Salisbury who taught woodwork at the school for many years. Making wooden frame kayaks one of his specialities."

Benge Kate-Vin "Defiintlely my Dad He also used to take boys especially those who went to the Every Boys Rally on kayack trips up the Whanganui River or to Tennyson Inlet in the Marlborough Sounds"

Brian Benge "That's me standing to the left of grandad. I remember Charles Langford from heretaunga college but I don't think he was in my year at Maidstone."

Nick Barnett "I thought that was Charles too. And I can spot Alan Carr, Philip Manning, Howard Pink and Stephen Bowles. Will zoom and try to get some more. Mr Salisbury taught me woodwork. I can still remember his creaky jokes and the way the boys pretended to laugh at them!"

Jill Benge "I learned to kayak in one of grandad's kayaks when I was a little girl and still love white water and sea kayaking"

Helen Salisbury "He, my late father in law-Henry Salisbury, used to tell these pathetic jokes to his woodworking classes, and then blame my husband, Dennis, for telling them to him in the first place. Dennis had nothing to do with it!"
