School Buss
I looked the school up and they have a web site. You may get some excitement going and a lot of support getting done what you want to do.

Thanks sfort.
Do you know which school you Googled?
I've tried that and got a bewildering array of schools to pick from.
I've e-mailed a few I thought might be "The One" but have yet to hear back from them.johnboy

Some mistakes are too much fun to be made only once.
I don't know everything about anything, and I don't know anything about lots of things.

You might want to try here and maybe they can give you some more leads.

I like that one better also !
Hey Johnboy, I live in Texas and I have unlimited long distance phone calling so if you would like for me to make a call for you and ask you particular questions, then I would be happy to. Just PM me with a list of things you would like to know and I will try to find them out for you. Sometimes calling is much better than emailing IMHO.
Just let me know if I can help - - OK?.

That, Sir, is an extremely generous offer to a complete stranger.
If I may I will take you up on that.
I have clicked onto the sites that have beeen posted, (thanks for that too!) but they won't allow me access to their archives; and even if I could get into their archives, it would only verify that that was the school these 'kids' attended.
That would be a step forward; but what I'd really like is to make contact with some of the pupils involved and get their stories regarding this particular bus...which is about to start a new life on the other side of the world.
Expect a PM from me.
And thank-you very much for your offer to help.johnboy

Face book
May have something to offer too. A lot of people still live in the town they grew up in. You could also look up graduating class and reunions.
