Wood End School

A Memory of South Harrow.

Hopefully this - my school until 1946 - is still standing. I attended during the war, and clearly remember the reception class at the end of the building (where we had to have a sleep each afternoon). Also the Air Raid shelters in the playground where we sat during a raid and sang songs like' ten green bottles', and I remember the teachers sitting there knitting!!. Surprisingly, I walked to school at the age of 6 or 7, with my Mum waving me off until I was out of sight - we lived on Wood End Lane. This was where I was to spend the first 9 years of my life before moving to Bournemouth in 1947. Anyone out there who remembers me? My name was Ann Cooper.
