Talavera Junior School c1960
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

I too have very happy memories of Talavera Junior School. I was a pupil there in the late 1960s, having moved up from Marlborough Lines Infants School. I now live in Essex, but over the years on my travels, I have visited these old schools. Does anyone remember the cats' masks in Talavera Junior playground? I also remember that on a Monday, the shield for the winning house (Wolf, Wellington, Clive or Gordon) was announced to the children. As previously asked by someone, I believe that the head of Marlborough Lines was a Mrs Searle, and my teacher at Talavera was Miss Milton. I too also lived in Ramillies Park, although thankfully these terrible looking boxes have now gone. Who on earth was responsible for designing those places?!

RE: RE: Talavera Junior School.

I wonder what's standing where Ramillies Park is now? Does anybody remember the woodland area around Ramillies Park? We were always out playing until 6 in the evening. I left Ramillies Park in 1972 and I do admit I have never seen anything like it since, thank goodness!!! We used to go playing at the Daisy Field too....back to work now....daydreaming.....
