Toastmaster 05-12-2008, 16:29 Fond memories of st pats.
especially the day sister bernadette gave me a thrashing with hers beeds for acidentaly dropping a tray of bonfire toffee the nuns had made to sell to the kids at playtime. I was eight at the time.
fonder memories at st peters where i bumped into another nun, sister john who loved to roll your hair around her finger near to your hair line then pull with all her might until you obviously cried. Only when you were crying would she walk back to her desk with a rather pleased grin on her face.
sister john taught me at st pats along with other nuns cannot remember her at st peters though.

I don't think Sister John taught at St. Peter's, you may be thinking of Sister Josephine who I heard about from my older sisters.
I saw Sister John recently, she has just moved to a convent nursing home in Doncaster, she is ninety years old and doing very well and I can't remember her being anything other than a pleasent person.

Toastmaster 21-11-2010, 19:10 Dear Mr p2E
Your absolutely right I did get mixed up, I do mean St Josephine and not sister John, sister john was a kindly lady and she did teach me at st pat's.
I'm sorry for the comment I made about sister john, My last day at St peters was in 1965 and during the yard assembly a pupil threw a metal poker up at the 2nd floor widow where sister Josephine was stood watching the assembly.
Obviously she wasn't very popular with many of the pupils

My dad's description of Sister Josephine was,she was thrown out of the Gestapo for over doing the cruelty.
That memory was from the late 30's early 40's, she must have made a lasting impression !!! :o
Toastmaster 21-11-2010, 23:38 MY father was around at the same time as your dad he was john wall, his 3 brother matt, tom, and Jim and his sister May were also there in the late 30s and 40s. they lived on butterthwaite road

There are some sick people in this world. Unfortunately too many of them had access to children.

Hi,,shaunfl,I wasin the same class as your uncle VINCENT,for most of our school life, i left st. pats, and did my last two years at ST. THERESA'S, as we moved to the ,MANOR.(it was pretty hard moving to another school and district after all those years).Although i kept in touch with my pals and made new ones.Sometimes VINNY,my brother and i would walk home together,as we all lived quite a ways.We lived on hartley brook at butterthwaite rd,but vinny had quite a bit further to go.He had a couple of close pals named FEENEY and MARTIN. (surnames) Well,SHAUN,i hope VINNY is enjoying good health.regards (arthur) eightlegger'
went there from 1999-2007.
Horribley strict place, Nursery teacher was mrs Gregson + Ms.young
reception teacher was ms.Devaro,she put me through my first firedrill...sounded a bit like a air raid siren to me :)
year 1:Miss maneon - had constant back Pain and was off most days.
Year 2: Miss Gooding- Lovely teacher, kind ,caring.
Year 3: Miss Marshal- Harsh, but very fair.
Year 4: Miss roddis (formally miss antcliffe)- okay, not understanding at all however.
Year5: Mr.Brighton: left due to 'personal reasons' resulting in 2 terms of supplys and only having him until Christmas.
Year 6: Miss Rawson- Lovely,kind and understanding woman!
If you were naughty, You were sent to the wall.
I also remember clearly, Mr.Tandy, Miss.cox, miss.kingcellar, miss slaytor, Miss.Kirwin,Mr.dent, Mrs.Batams.
Monday mornings were led by mrs.farrar on the piano, and we were drilled into singing endless hims and what not, Before the toilets got refurbished, countless kids got themsleves locked in them, only getting rescued after screaming for help, before mr.mitchel,Miss.perry,mrs.meadowcroft theres also another woman who used to teach us history in year 3, a really older woman who had been there for some time, but her names slipped my mind ( the care taker, must admit he did look a rather dodgy bloke) I can also remember being scared to climb the stairs, to the cloak rooms on the top floor, there were some creepy times around that building, always thought I was being watched...
any one else got any interesting storys to tell about that? ;/

FR Collins was the parish priest when i went to St Pats, he always read the Sunday sermon from the pulpit with his eyes closed, never opened them even when he gave out communion.
