  1. A query as to the open day of the new build Bents Green School, 16th of June is not a Tuesday. What is the correct date? Pam-G
  2. I attended Bents Green Open Air School, as it was then known, between 1960and 1966. I was both a resident and a daily attender at different times. My memories are of many happy times, a very easy going lifestyle, plenty of fresh air, long walks to Forge Dam and the Round house. I never quite made it there before the return journey, due to my slow pace of walking, Teachers of the time were Mr Bailey, Mr Vardy, Mrs Jones, Mr Orgill, Miss Jubb, Miss Dodd, and Mr Slater who was a teacher for the partially sighted children. My one regret is that I didnt get as good an education as I could have in a normal school, but I later studied and trained in catering, brought up my family, ran a sewing business for over 20 years, and finally retrained as a pre school keyworker untill finally retiring recently. So after some consideration I think Bents Green worked for me!
