Haileybury Junior School


Here is an interesting photo. Ringo is sitting with his son, Zak, in the Spring of 1978. At the time Zak was a student at Haileybury Junior School, which was a boarding school for boy in Windsor. Ringo had came to visit Zak at his school for "Speech Day" (Not sure what that is). The photo was taken by a fellow student at the school.

  1. This is a really sweet picture. Ringo seems like he was a good dad to his children, considering the divorce situation.

  5. Hi, I was at Haileybury Junior School when Zak joined. We were in the same year and I remember that even to a bunch of 8 year olds, Zak was kind of exotic. We didn't really understand how famous his dad was. Zak introduced us to porn magazines. I still have a picture in my mind as I and a group of other boys gathered around him while he flicked the pages of the mag that he'd brought in. We were all well brought up middle class private school children and we'd never seen anything like it? Still makes me smile.
