sugarnspice Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Oh and Mrs Yates with that lovely long hair! Mrs Calvert really was lovely, very maternal and always fair (and dished out gold stars like they were going out of fashion). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daven Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Yes she is lovely - and Mrs Yates has still got her long hair - she did the last time I saw her ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sugarnspice Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 I even liked Mr Wright even though he screamed at me when my map of the world was utterly wrong. Ahhhh memories ..... Still trying to remember the name of the scary lady, it's killing me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daven Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Was it Mrs Francis ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daven Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Because if it was - and I can understand why a small child might be scared of her - she was actually a pussycat and a really sweet person. Sadly, she passed away a few years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sugarnspice Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Was it Mrs Francis ? She was quite stern but no, definitely not her. It was Mrs B.... Mrs B.... Mrs B..... Hell I cannot remember! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sugarnspice Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 All my kids were taught by Mrs Calvert and they all loved her ! Mrs Finbow was one of the ones who left soon after the present boss arrived . I think she had a lot of input with the children with SENs When were your kids at Greenhill School?

kanga Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 Was it Mrs Behan or something like that? Was she the one who used to complain that everyone sounded like a bunch of wet cabbages when they sang, or am I mixing schools up..?! I really liked Mr Hawksworth, Mrs Finbow, Mrs Thorpe and Mrs Jones. Mrs Baker the school secretary was lovely too It's a shame if the school's changed as you say, I always liked it there. I didn't want to leave to go to Meadowhead at all! Forgot to say... yes, I do remember Mr Gundry, he was my teacher in the last year. I always remember when he sat down on a chalk drawing (of fireworks I think) one day and when he stood up, he had them all over his bum... oops.

angelamary Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 I was their the very first day it opened and it was marvellous, everything spanking new, and the school dinners were wonderful, on Coronation Day we ate ice-cream and were given presents of mugs,pencil cases etc. Cannot remember any of the teacher,s except a Mrs. Parker who we had to go and read to every week as a test, she was very frightning, a lot of the children would be sick or wet them selves, Oh happy days!!!!!!!
