Wendy Chalk, a former student at Park Lodge - a Surbiton school that closed more than 50 years ago - wants her peers to come forward for a school reunion in April 2010.

Park Lodge, a private school in Claremont Road, shut in the late 1950s after the three sisters who ran and owned it retired, and the building was later demolished.

Wendy Chalk, who was one of the last pupils, has contacted about 20 people on Friends Reunited about the get together, but hopes others who attended and still live in the area will get in touch.

She is particularly hoping to hear from Janice Blin, Ruth Cohen, Gloria Kennedy, Connie Allan, Christine Lohmeyer, Elizabeth Harding, Penelope Tedder-Shepherd and Suzanne Fountain.

The event will be held between 2pm and 4.30pm on Saturday, April 24, at the Walton Centre for Retired People in Manor Road, Walton on Thames, with a £10 charge to cover costs.
