Byegone Days
A Memory of Harold Hill.
I was interested to read your account of Quarles and Bosworth schools.
The primary school set my opinion of education, we were constantly beaten for minor infringements, made to stand on a chair hands on head whilst a female teacher hit our legs with a ruler.
I'm afraid this conditioned me for life in school.
It took me years to get on track, all my educational achievements coming in my thirties.
Thank God I came out on top and ended up with a not to bad a job in local government.
I retired early on a number of pensions, my own property and comfortable in life.

I think I remember the name Schuler at this building .. did you have a brother? Perhaps, Peter? Were you both good swimmers?
The very best ... Ken
He resides in Gidea Park whilst I moved to Scotland and live just outside Edinburgh

I now live in New South Wales Australia. I emigrated with my family to Adelaide Australia in 1968.
