Moreton Barnston Lane School
I went to Barny Lane during the war. There were brick air-raid shelters in the 'garden'. Mr Hibbert was the headmaster. Miss Banks was one of the teachers. There were no men on the staff [apart from Mr H.] as all the men had been called up. Does anyone else remember the 'good old days'?
