Modern School c1955
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

Started my school life here in 1967 and was at St Botolph's school, or as it was known to us as just ropewalk school. I have very fond memories of the place and some rather nasty ones of a particular teacher called Mrs Wadsworth. Remember having my first crush on a girl in my class called Elizabeth Cockerham although all the boys did, including Paul Baines and Mark Pearson the vicar's son, we were best mates the 3 of us. This is the only picture of the school I can find although I'm sure there are some hidden away in a lot of the Knottla folks' cupboards, I would love to see some more if anybody has any.
