Profs: Fr Swaby the rector who taught Maths (and it was Modern Maths! just after it had been invented, with all sorts of new-fangled ideas - teaching colleagues nowadays are impressed when I tell them about it.)
George aka Fr Shaw who played the organ, piano, cello and I don't know what else, taught Latin and Greek and had the untidiest room you've ever seen.
Paddy Kearney who tried to teach science. His sex education lesson was wonderful - when we got to the chapter entitled 'Reproduction' in the 1947 science text books, he said "Well, you can read the next chapter for yourselves," and that was it. We moved straight on to genetics and heredity.
Fr Oria the French teacher who spoke French, German, Basque, Latin, Greek, English of a kind, and was learning Russian. He was years ahead of the game because he actually insisted we speak the language - and thereby helped me get a degree in French.
And finally Fr Joe O'Hanlon, the English teacher, who inspired me with a love of literature and helped turn me into what I am today...
