If you are a former pupil of Knightswood Secondary I would encourage you to visit the Former Pupil Website created and maintained by Rosemary Young (herself an ex-pupil of the school). On the site you will be able to register messages and get in touch with old school pals all for no fee (unlike friends reunited). There is also a huge amount of old photograph waiting to be seen (thanks to John Lightbody for posting these images).
