A Memory of Laleham.
When I was 4 years old my mother used to work for the nuns at Laleham abbey, she used to take me with her, what fun I used to have. I used to roam all over the grounds and also inside the buildings, all the nuns were wonderful. l remember Sister Mary Phillipa, Sister Flora Mary and Sister Mary Gertrude, I think the best event I used to attend was Corpus Christi. I also remember at lunchtimes tramps used to come to the abbey kitchen door to get food and often they gave me a sixpence. It was a sad day when I had to start school but I looked forward to the holidays. I moved away from Laleham in 1976 but often go back to Laleham. I only wish I could go back being 4 again.
I was Rita Jarvis back then.
