Did anyone attend Phillimore Road School in the early to mid 70's? Can you remember having to stand up whenever the headmaster came into the classroom? And those horrible rubber swimming hats you had to wear for swimming lessons at Upperthorpe baths (I think that was girls only)? If you didn't have one you couldn't go!

I knew a lady who taught there Mrs Grace Hill.
Not sure how long ago though

I can't remember Phillimore School at Darnall, but i do remember Whitby Road Infant & Junior School (now Greenland School I think) at Darnall which I went to around late 60's early 70's.
I can remember a few teachers Mr Brindley, Mr Albere (who I think was killed in a car accident) and Mrs Southgate. I also think the french teacher was called Mr Ellis.
Does anyone else remember this?

Another thing that I can remember about Phillimore Road school was that it only seemed to have one long corridor through the whole school, with classrooms going off. Or at least it seemed that way. I visited the school again a few years ago (it was a few years!) and the same old white railings (which I used to swing on) were still outside the main gates. Anyone know if the school is still there (or the railings for that matter)?

the school is there, my neice and nephew go there. and so are the railings

i started at phillimore school at the age of 5yr in 1957 can't beleive it's still there.i must go and take a look when i'm in sheffeild again. i live in germany at the momment

yup gladys i went there, and its funny cos all i remember was the long corridor same as u, i cant even remember the heads name, but i do remember a teacher called Mrs Parkin ? se used to use the ruler on ur arm if caught chatting :suspect:

I went there too in around 1973- Mrs Parkin in particular seemed a 'bit strange:suspect:
I hated that school:mad:

I attended Ph Sch 67-69. Mrs Parkin was plump with a ruddy complexion but a lovely lady, she would have you sit on her lap and give you a hug as she instructed you on how to behave or what to do. Mrs Carr was another teacher there, young and cool for the time, I use to walk her to the bus stop at the end of the day, really special, she was fabulous at reading Paddington Bear and bringing the stories to life. We use to have a summer open day when we would all barn dance or similar in the play yards; I can remember my mum peering through the railings on such a day. I was at school with an Anita Humphry's, Diane Bell, Gerald and Graham(those names just appeared!). There use to be a big family of Lister's, sandy to red haired family, they came from poor circumstances. We learnt to knit dish clothes, we would listen BBC radio school programmes. It was actually a good school without any memories of cruel teachers. I do remember however, having my tonsils out and when I went back to school some smug maths female teacher mentioning it had been lovely without me, ouch! (always thought of myself as a quiet kid) Another memory just came back I do rememember telling every one how much my mum loved me and I was the favourite of six, untrue, she loved us all, totally forgot about that - I see how these Forums can bring old memories to life now,,,,,

yup i remember the lister family, think there still at darnall. maybe not i dunno cos i dont live there now. And i remember knitting dish clothes. OMG i even remember collecting the teachers coffee cups and taking them upstairs where there was suppost to be a ghost in there (the staff room), there were always 2 of us doing that job thank god!! We used to just chuck the cups in the sink at times and run out we were that scared. (we used to scare ourselfs walking up the stairs talking about what if we saw the ghost) pmsl.
And yeh i remember the barn dances lol

awwww i kinda miss them days :(

As a young trainee teacher I did my first Teaching Practice at Phillimore in early 1975.I can't remember the name of the male class teacher but I believe he became Head or Deputy later - not Tony Philliskirk by the way.
We spent four sucessive Wednesday afternoons with a group of 6 of the more "excitable " kids on the subject of fire.
The last lesson being the fire service. It must have been a success because that evening the same group went out and set fire to one of the many houses that were about to be demolished at that time - so that they could see the fire engines!!
College received a phone call from the Head Teacher congratulating us on the success of our teaching - a little tongue in cheek perhaps?

I remember the Lister family very well. There was also another Lister family
who went to the school too. I also remember the knitting of the dish cloths,
I went there in 72 ish. Eventually had Mr Arnold (very strict) who if you
did anything wrong made you stand on a chair so he could throw a board rubber at you:gag: - my bad memories only come from being tormented by
other kids. I had someone in my class called Zane too- but couldn't be you cause of the year you left.

oh my god!! i remember Mr Arnold :o I never got the rubber tho thank god, but my best mate did :mad:
Im tryna think of the head at that time, but i cant remember the name, anyone ?

We had a teacher come to our school from Phillimore in the 70s - Mr Staniland, anyone know him?

oh my god!! i remember Mr Arnold :o I never got the rubber tho thank god, but my best mate did :mad:
Im tryna think of the head at that time, but i cant remember the name,

can't think of heads name either- who's class were you in?
Do you remember Miss Shillitoe?- used to do Poetry with
her

yup i remember Mr Staniland he was ok. Dont remember Miss Shillitoe tho soz.
i cant remember many teachers names, i must be older than u pink hun or maybe i just got a crappy memory :?
but i was there in the 70's

I think the Lister family was quite a large family maybe 9 to 11 chidren (vague). I'm of mixed origin and Christine Lister, god bless her, was the first person I can actually remember bringing it to my attention. I'm really quite pale, I've been described as anemic on bad days, not that that matters, but Christine enjoyed calling me 'blackie' very confusing for a small person who knew it was literally incorrect. I have to admit as a consequence I had a great dislike for all types Ginger after that, but got over that when I actually had to mix and work with Gingers!! We're all human regardless of colour, the rest really doesn't matter to me. Any way back to Chistine, I eventually built up enough courage to stand up to Christine and would eventually shout her down, amazing how quickly you can pick up bad behaviour. No grudges held, hope you faired well Christine if you're out there. We used to live on Fitzmaurice Road, a long road of terraced housing with outside toilets in the back yards, Shops at both ends of the street. I think Flo's was one of them, her husband either had one arm or leg, war casualty, there was a similar shop across the road but run by a man, he would accept any coupons from promotions as long as he stocked the goods and we could trade off the coupons for sweets. At the other end of the street there was a cafe, Dyfella's (or similar) lovely man, his wife was a great knitter, she could knit without watching her needles!! I remember a boy called Albert, again from a largish family, remember my dad carting him off to the hospital with Appendicitis in the back of his van. Jubilee Road ran parallel to fitzmaurice but I think they actually had gardens instead of yards? Really vague memories of a hard place. Cold winters, smog, no greenery.

That brings back such memories of the roads for me- My Mum lives on
Fitzmaurice now- the roads run 'across'- instead of down iyswim now,
I had i think Glenn Lister in my year at school.

Im tryna think of the head at that time, but i cant remember the name, anyone ?
Mr Edwards was the Head at that time, a lovely olddish man who would tell the class stories.
It was not mr Arnold who used to throw the blackboard rubber at you it was mr falkner, he was always known to to do this. if he thought you were talking then the next thing you would see was the rubber coming past you at speed lol, Both mr Arnold and mr Falkner were both 4th year teachers. i was in mr Arnold's class.

I knew a lady who taught there Mrs Grace Hill.
Not sure how long ago though

mrs Hill's classroom was across from mr Arnold's classroom. she had a habit of speaking to you with her eyes closed.
She was there in the 70's.

yup i remember Mr Staniland he was ok. Dont remember Miss Shillitoe tho soz.
i cant remember many teachers names, i must be older than u pink hun or maybe i just got a crappy memory :?
but i was there in the 70's

I can just remember her, miss Shillitoe, she had long black hair in a plait and wore glasses. she took year 3. I was in miss Saul's year the other 3rd year.
I started Phillimore in 72' as we had just moved from the white city at Aston.
Our father aslso went to Phillimore and when i went into mrs Parkins class for music the first words she said was- Oh no, not another one from the same family" lol, yes she had taught my dad and his brothers and sisters all before my sister and i went to phillimore. lol

Well he certainly did when i was in his class- was never in Mr Falkners
class

mrs Hill's classroom was across from mr Arnold's classroom. she had a habit of speaking to you with her eyes closed.

Yes i was in Mrs Hills class too- used to make you do times tables
before letting you go at lunch time

Does anyone remember a play that we did there it was called "The good old days" ?

Does anyone remember a play that we did there it was called "The good old days" ?


Hya, yes i do, didn't Tracy Rawson have a big part in that.

Well he certainly did when i was in his class- was never in Mr Falkners
class

Hya pinkgirl,
i was in mr Arnolds in the 4th year and a prefect for sheaf, mr Arnold used to make us laugh cos he used to use the long board rule as a golf club. When i was there we had blackboard monitors who would clean the boards down. I left phillimore back in 73". Anyone remember the old outside toilets in the infants yard. these were still in use in the 70's.

Did anyone attend Phillimore Road School in the early to mid 70's? Can you remember having to stand up whenever the headmaster came into the classroom? And those horrible rubber swimming hats you had to wear for swimming lessons at Upperthorpe baths (I think that was girls only)? If you didn't have one you couldn't go!

Hello Glady's. i was there in 72 - 73 and we had mixed swimming lessons at
Attercliffe Baths. Yes i also remember those rubber swimming caps, they were awful lol.
I also remember a few of the teachers from the junior department;
Mrs Mathumen, mrs Shilitoe, miss Saul, mrs Parkin, mr Failkner, mrs Hill, mr Arnold, there was a part timer called mrs Beader who originally took my mother at CARBROOK BOARD SCHOOL. and mr Edwards the head.
Do any of you who went to Phillimore also remember these teachers .

i remember a few bluebird, Mrs Parkin sticks out the most, she used to slap ur arm with the ruler if u got caught chatting :mad:

And i remember the swimming lessons at Attercliffe baths. At one time i more or less lived there as my best friends mum worked there so we used to go lots, cos we got in free I also remember the ghost story's about that place :rolleyes:

I remember all thoose teachers- i went in 72/73. I also remember attercliffe
swimming baths more from being at Parkhouse- on the way home used to
run under the dark little bridge but the boys used to hide in there and we would hit them with our swimming bags and run:hihi: - remember the greek
guy who took swimming there?- he had a long stick when you did your
distance he used to poke you if he saw your feet touch the bottom- it
worked:loopy: think he was called Mr Merota (not right spelling)

Hya, yes i do, didn't Tracy Rawson have a big part in that.


The name Tracet Rawson rings a bell, but cant put a face to the name. Were u in that play Bluebird ? i was one of the barber shop quartet, and the actobats :gag: lol was fun to do tho and if u remember who the
pearly queen was then u will no who i am :D

Fab memories, I remember

-the staff room where Mrs Parkin taught us to eat with knives and forks in the 'correct' hand, never mind if you were right or left handed.

-Good old days was fab, still know the songs (I'm 39 this year).

-Walking home unsupervised from swimming, for our weekly meeting with the Attercliffe flasher, past the factories etc - wouldn't happen now.

- Mr Staminore's wife dying

- Residential to ? Hall?

- the wind sensation on your ear, as the board rubber just missed you head

My Mum lived on Jubilee Rd. I remember visiting my Grandad and walking up the "yard" to the outside toilet. I also remember the tin bath infront of the fire. Sadly, both my Mum "Alma" and her sister Doreen have passed away.Their maiden name was " Peverly". They would have both been in their 70's now, but if anyone does remember them I would be interested to know :).

i went the school mid 60s and lived on plowman street no 49 on one side of us was florrie dixon tony dixon was in our class on the other side was mrs flint and alfie rita pickering lived across the road as did my aunt and uncle Lilly and Ernest Robinson with my cousins keith david gary hazel and christine.I have some happy memories of the school and some horrid ones which i can laugh about now mr arnold always played with his false tooth and had a huge stash of different thickness canes which he often used on the lads on our last day there(our house was being demolished) my brother kicked the teacher whilst lining up for dinner the whole school cheered as he was chased down the long corridor he never got his dinner that day and we moved that afternoon wonder if the present school still has jerusalem as its school song

There's some photo's of the "Good Old Days" on Facebook.

I went to Phillimore both infants and jnrs and can still remember some of the teachers.Mrs Conway,Mrs Hill, Mrs Mathewman, Miss Thompson, Miss Spaven,Mr Bailey and the dreaded Mr Arnold.

Our surname is Stevens I went to school with your aunt Doreens son Neal before they moved onto the Gleadless estate, you don,t mention your dad I hope John is still going strong as I remember visiting him and Alma on many occasions when they lived near the old ASDA.

My nan went to that school,must have been in the 1920s because she was born in 1919.

i think my auntie went there they called her linda darby

Hi All

I went to Phillimore Road School back in the 60's.

Remember my first day and being split up from my Cuz Steven Booth (RIP).

Mrs Mathuman (spelt wrong) she used to have a Scooter and I remember righting a bit about it getting wet in the rain.

Also remember putting my fingers down my thought and being sick in assembly.

Being the Archangel Gabriel in the Nativity play "Do not be afried Mary I bring you tieddings of good cheer".

Years latter being in Mrs Hill class when she broke her arm.

All good memories.

Mr Edwards was the Head at that time, a lovely olddish man who would tell the class stories.
It was not mr Arnold who used to throw the blackboard rubber at you it was mr falkner, he was always known to to do this. if he thought you were talking then the next thing you would see was the rubber coming past you at speed lol, Both mr Arnold and mr Falkner were both 4th year teachers. i was in mr Arnold's class.

I was in Falkners class he used to rub his knuckles on the top of my head, sure he caused me brain damage.
