Is the Hartley Brook school the one in Gregg House Rd. If it is I went there in 1937, the infant school. I went and had a look at the school a couple of years ago, the front entrance behind the gates had been bricked up.Can't remember much of that time except my first day at school I was given some string and a box of beads to play with. On the outbreak of the war, the school was closed and we went to private houses in small groups for lessons.

 

 

I cannot remember the school ever being closed, I was went there when I was 5, 1944.

The school closed for a short period in 1939 into 1940. It was closed when war was declared because of the fear it may be bombed, after several months when nothing happened, it was re-opened.
