New Life
This is the pub we went and trained in and from there we got our life back on track.
Eyes
I attended the junior school, but slept at the senior school. I have wonderful memories, especially of the eyes of the paintings that followed one if one wanted to go to the loo at night.
Fedsden School/Parndon Hall
I also went to Fedsden at Parndon Hall, but quite a bit later (around 1963), as a boarder. Great happy memories of this place. Remember Mrs Clare very well and though she seemed a bit severe I liked her a lot. Fabulous old house with painted ceilings, rambling old grounds and woods, and outside ramshackle buildings used for domestic science and woodwork. Happy, happy days :)
Parndon Hall School
I attended school at Parndon Hall, then referred to as Kinsmoor School, in 1956 when I was 13. I have a photo that I took of it at that time. We were only there for a few terms before the students were moved to Fedsden School in Roydon. I remember Mrs. Clare was the headmistress and the school sponsored students from France. I remember finding old stone arrow heads on the property. If anyone would like a copy of the photograph I took of the house I would be happy to email it at no charge.
