At the end of the corridor there were these big books … they were gospel stories and they were all on a big string hanging on a coat stand or something. Inside they were lovely. They looked like paintings but they were on like a linen background … great stories and the colours were quite vivid. Everybody sat down and listened to the story. Kate Hanna

We had assembly every day I think, from what I can remember. We had prayers and all stood in our lines and there were big hymn books that were given out. We all sang the hymns and the teacher played the piano. Gemma Vaughan
The subjects you would hav e covered were generally the same. Every morning when you came in you did your spellings an d your times tables. You had to know them. Every morning you were tested on them. You did your Engli sh work, your comprehen sion, some difficult passages and poetry. Pro se, stories and maths, wo uld have been in the morning time. In the afternoon it would have been some science, geography, history ... we always looked forward to PE. We would have had PE maybe twice a we ek. Paul Gilchrist
