Shamley Green School

A Memory of Shamley Green.

My father Fred, went to this school many years ago. He remembers the swimming pool that was at the far end of the playing field (now coverd by weeds and trees), the boys would swim in the summer months. Sadly there was a boy who died in the pool.

The dinner hall was then the toilets that would freeze up in the winter, along with the pool!

I also went to the school in the 1960s, I remember ringing the school bell and getting a bloody nose from boys fighting. Swinging on the bars. Mr Walker was very scary! I had a very happy time there, and went back for a look around last year. It is still a dear little school and I feel very lucky to have been there.
