Norma Anthony - what was the Co-op Childrens Guild? Was this a Christmas party? My mum is the one who Sharleen Murtha mentioned (Betty Hillhouse). She had a younger sister Margaret and a younger brother (Billy) so I'm wondering why they weren't there?

Norma Anthony
They had an Older Guild for the Co-op which Mrs Lee who was a neighbour of my sister Leona Menzies who was in it is why i was asked to be there think it was for an Anniversary of the Co-op had the book but lost it and was so pleased to see the photo remember it well .

Kathy Marshall
Lorraine Lee certainly looks like her Cuz

I think so as well

Vicki Smith
Mum would have 15 yrs old in 1941, so I don't think it is her in the front row. Looks very similar though.
