Lanfranc Girl's Prize Giving

A Memory of Croydon.

I too remember the Godrey Talbot talk at Prize Giving. I also remember we were given the afternoon off school to get ready, and given book tokens before the event to purchase a book that would be presented on the night. I see now how lucky I was to live in the centre of Croydon, until I moved when I was 12 years old. I had such freedom. I would go Christmas shopping on my own after school with saved pocket money. Woolworth down from Crown Hill was my favourite place. I went to the Croydon Parish Church Infant and Junior school. We had the best teacher in Mr. Thompson, he lived in Kent and taught us grammar school maths when we were 9 or 10 years old. I have never forgotten what a great teacher he was.
