Eustace Street School
A Memory of Chadderton.
I was born in Chadderton in 1953, in my grandfather's house on Bamford Street.
I attended Eustace Street School and the memories of my time there have shaped my life. I simply adored school and I am now a Special Needs teacher and writer. I particularly loved my junior school teacher ( who was also the deputy headmaster), Mr Goring. He was a marvelous teacher with heaps of charisma. Every day in school was an adventure. My time in his class left me with a life long love of books and poetry. I only ever wanted to be a teacher - and some fifty years later - it still defines who I am. I was saddened to read that the old school was pulled down in 2009, having been left in a state of disrepair. However, it will live forever in my memories of those happy school days.
