Year: 1930s
My Mum Annie Spreadbury
My mum was born in Wintney Hartney near Binsted and went to school here.
These are her memories.
The school was staffed by nuns (maybe two). She remembers that one of them was very handy with the cane on knuckles! But she also remembers the kindness. She came from a typical large, poor family, which was rent apart when her mother died when Mum was only 9. In the winter she would be given a baked potato by the kind nun. This would keep her hands warm all morning, and be eaten at lunchtime.
