Pupil Around Late 1950s

A Memory of Selsdon.

We moved to Littleheath Road circa 1957, I was a pupil until we moved in 1960.
I remember: Colin Smith, Mervyn Allinson (spelling?), Janice Russell, and her friend Judith Hardman, Peter Martin, and that is it as far as full names go.
The year I left, I watched the eclipse of the sun, on the top playground. I used to run around a lot, and run into the infants? playground, knocked a little girl down, damaged her party dress, and damaged/knocked out? one of her teeth....Sorry!! I got a telling off from their head mistress. I had the cane quite a few times, I learnt how to drop my arm down just at the moment of impact, to lessen the pain.
Walking up to Selsdon, after school, we would stop off at a bungalow/shop?, and buy a 'Jubbly' or liquorice stick.
