Ridge House School

A Memory of Cold Ash.

I went to RidgeHouse school from about 1952 to 1956.Unfortunately the school which was almost opposite the convent school has been demolished and replaced with some houses. The school had a large area of ground which included a wood,great for playing in as I remember climbing many trees ( no health and safety then!). The lessons were varied ( about 10 different subjects from maths to French). We also had a rest time which involved lying on the floor with your head on a horrible plastic pillow. The Headmistress was a Ms Wilder, but I can't remember any of the other teachers names . I still have some of my attendance cards. We also had nature walks around Cold Ash in a formation crocodile. It was a mixed day school so there were no boarders If there is anybody out there that can remember this school it would great to hear from them.
