Beaconsfield Street School

I also remember the school in Beaconsfield Street and I remember Audrey who was in my class.
Albert Street is clear in my memory too as it was in the Salvation Army there that I learnt to play the cornet in their band.
Strangely, I have little recollection of the coronation celebrations though I do remember the street party in Victoria Place for the Festival of Britain.
There was also a day in 1953, I think when the school had a holiday so we could watch the Queen drive through Prescot. I watched from opposite the Council Offices.
