Hi I was compelled to send a message on behalf of myself, my brother and 2 sisters to say how very sorry we were to hear that Mr Robson had died. All four of us had the huge pleasure of having him as our English teacher. Im sure he would have remembered the Wilson tribe starting with Peter, followed by twins Linda (me), Helen and lastly Alison our younger sister. We all feel so incredibly lucky to have had him as our teacher and we definitely owe him for our continued love of English and so much more. Probably the best teacher we ever had and we will certainly never forget him. Our thoughts are with the family x

So sad to hear about Mr Robson. Myself, my twin sister, younger sister and brother all were in Rogers English class at St Aidens in late 1970. He truly was one of the best, most interesting and encouraging teachers there. Our thoughts are very much with his family. From the Wilson family xx
