My Time In Blurton
A Memory of Blurton.
my family moved to blurton council estate when I was about 4 yrs old, that would be 1952, my sister was 5, our first school was st bartholmews in church lane then we went to Sutherland primary and junior schools, after that we went to blurton senior school, which became blurton comprehensive, then blurton junior high, and I believe is now known as blurton high school, I attended st bartholmews church and joined the choir, later becoming leader of the alto,s choirboys, the vicar at that time was the reverend spencer, or pa spencer as he was affectionately known, I have very fond memories of my time living in blurton and my shool years, 1974 I moved to new Zealand and lived there for 30 years, since 2004 my wife and I have lived in queensland Australia, im glad to see st bartholomews is still going strong but saddened to see they have cut the 11am sunday service.
I was a member of the choir at the dedication of st albans in blurton when it was first built.
