My First School

A Memory of Preston Capes.

Living in Hellidon I was sent to Preston Capes when I came 5 years old in 1951/2. Mrs Smith was the teacher. I remember the smell of coffee coming from her. We went by bus from Hellidon on a Judd's bus through Charwelton. The school had one room with two classes and there was a pot bellied stove in the middle of the back wall. I remember Mrs Smiths son had a model train set in the back garden. I also remember that when we were playing in the playground out front we had to run to the trees any time a car drove into the play area.
