OCHS stood for Oshawa Catholic High School. It is now known as Paul Dwyer High School. It is still located at 700 Stevenson Road North in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada. These images are from my photography archives, and they are intended as a blast from the past. I have just digitized these images from dusty negatives that have not seen the light in a pile of years. In addition, other archive photos have been added from contributions by graduates and teachers of the high school.
When OCHS was first incarnated, it was known as St. Joseph's High School (after St. Joseph's Primary School on Simcoe Street North which is now shuttered. Incidentally, I attend St. Joe's primary school. The Sisters of St. Joseph taught at both places. Coincidence -- I think not). This is a rare photo of Boys Basketball in the Fall of 1962 at St. Joe's High.
The "old school" Simcoe St. N. is now a Montessori School. Guess they got all of the asbestos out!
ReplyDeleteA lot of good lookin' guys. Of course, I'm a little prejudiced about that. Many good athletes and very many successful business men in later years. Good crop.

I am also in the picture above, front row, second from left. Stewy, is beside me at the far left. I can give you the names of the rest of those characters if you need them.
