Eastbrook Boys School

A Memory of Dagenham.

I attended Eastbrook from 1959 to 1964, after Richard Alibon Juniors, Dickie Davis was my first form teacher and my memory of him is he always carried a cane, he was one of the few teachers that would give you the stick himself rather than send you to the headmaster, Mr. Curry?? Dickies catch phrase, which he would say whilst shaking his cane and looking up to the ceiling was 'Sit up and shut up'. The religious studies teacher was Mr. Reynolds, 'Herbie' He would regularly wear a black gown and mortar board as if he was at university.
