I was there '77-82 also and I remember Ms.Feran fondly. Sadly, she was the only thing that I liked about Irish class, a genuinely cool person. I had a good time there as the lads were generally sound and the Staff were fair. I was probably what we now call a disruptive pupil, always gabbing to my neighbours around me but I lived for the 11 and 1 o' clock football matches plus P.E. lessons. Happy Days.
Lets not forget Mr Seagrave, avuncular Maxie (McMahon science), mad but stimulating Fr Casey, the terrifying Fr Archbold (Archie w imagind hand-washing of soap gestures) , tmaths teacher Fr Ned Barrett who I always remember as a greyhound lover, the always warm, impossibly patient Mrs Feran, Mr Garvey too, who would collude with us indelaying the learning element in Latin classes by discussing the English football results ad infinitum. So I did learn some Latin. Hail to them.
Was there 1981-86. Teachers I remember: Feran, Dempsey, Gleeson, Byrne, Corbet, McMahon, McDonnell, McVeigh, Haughey, Casey, McGuinness, Garvey, Logan. Had a ball going to school there.
Went there from 92-98. Seeing the assembly hall and around the interior after so long brings back a ton of memories.

Thanks for this video. I'd not seen Belcamp before. My late dear father Michael Patrick Winston (RIP 1991) was a pupil there in 1929.
