A bottle was discovered which contained lists of pupils’ names from 1967 during Ulster Tree Week when a tree was planted at the school.
One sheet of paper reads: “ULSTER TREE WEEK. This tree was planted on 16th November 1967 by the pupils of Knockahollet School.
"The names of the pupils present are written on the enclosed sheets.
"Teachers present were:- Mr Ronald Waterman, Miss M. Ross, Mrs S. Boyd.”
The first page of names includes Lorna Anne, Noelle and Marlene Munnis; Joan, Iris and Rosemary Gage; Kaye Dinsmore, Elizabeth Tweed and many more.
A second page lists the names of the pupils from “Middle Division” in Knockahollet School.
Finally a fourth page lists more names of pupils including Jennifer Christie and Barbara Moore, Billy Gilchrist and Alex Crawford.
