Year: 1947
St George's School
Hi, Carol Jakes was soliciting memories from pupils of St George's School in the 50s. I was born in 1940 at Whitle Fold and attended Spring Bank Primary from 1945 to 1947(?) when I shifted to St George's. My memories of those years include sliding on ice slides in the play ground, frozen milk, Mr Neville slapping our legs for not lining up quickly, Mickey Jeffs' basin haircut and "Pingot Lill"'s boy Geoffrey(?) trashing the classroom because it was raining heavily and he wasn't allowed to go home to tend his pet goat!!
Around 1951 I scraped through the 11 plus exam and went to Grammar School (Grammar Grub) and that is another whole story, me being a rebel and heading into my Teddy Boy years.
Anyway, Carol or whoever reads this give me a 'mail and let's chew the fat.
Regards, Alan.
