Starting School

A Memory of Dunston.

This is my first school, Dunston Hill Infant & Junior School, I started school the year the photo was taken, I fell off a small wall first day, I remember it vividly.
Favourite teacher in the junior school was a Ms Hallgarth, my first love.
I was born in Beech Drive only a few hundred yards down Dunston Road.
Part of a gang ('snake belt gang') including Howard and John Smith, Peter and David Coxon, and the Brydon brothers.
Always out and about, no WII's no X boxes, no videos just fresh air and 10 goals halftime epic games of footie in the park.
