shaznay Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 I went to this school, I would have started in 1966 cause i was 5 then, I also remember going to the new school in 1970. The old school was horrible, i was in mrs coopers class, then mrs southern, mrs greener, mrs pashley and mrs parkin, I proberbly was in your class. I lived in the maisonettes on foxhill ave.

pamrenshaw Posted March 17, 2008 Author Share Posted March 17, 2008 Thanks for the reply its great to know someone else remembers it being horrible!! I can remember mice running around the class room and we thought the old air raid shelters were haunted. I was in Miss Bexley, Miss Stills (I think) Miss Sutherland (she got married but I cant remember her name), Mrs White in the old school and then Miss Pashley, Mrs Parkin Mr Youle and the head teacher was Mr Parkin who had a bendy cane to smack the boys. There was a really scary Mr Reville who used to play the piano and scared the living daylights out of me and a scary old Miss who taught needlework . And do you remember Miss Bowie in the new school she was a bit strange!!! I lived on Foxhill Crescent and have seen some old school friends over the years I know it was old and horrible but I would love to find some photos of the old school I will let you know if I come across any Pam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaznay Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 hi, hope you got my pm, I remember most of the teachers names you mention, my favourite was mrs Sothern ( or sutherland) she used to let me brush her hair while waiting in the queue to have our books marked. I too used to think the school was haunted, used to be scared to go sometimes. I think mrs moorcroft was the old needlework teacher,I dont remember mrs bowie though. I dont think any photos of the school exist, ive searched a few websites but no luck. it would be great to see some though. The new school was fab though, even though a bit strange with classrooms divided by blackboards, and the quiet rooms ! good days, hard to believe over 40 years ago, scarey.
