Agatha   10 #2 Posted March 28, 2017 I went to the junior school in 1958 - 1960. My teacher was Mrs Steeples and the headteacher was Mrs Halifax. Have you any info about the 11 Plus exam? I am trying to trace my results but have hit a brick wall. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
ArhLass   10 #3 Posted March 28, 2017 I went to the nursery school in the low White buildings in 1962, I can remember my teacher, Miss Paddling (I think), I remember playing outside at dinner time, coming back in through the door where a teacher would be stood with a bottle of cod liver oil and a spoon, giving each child a spoonful! Then we would have a nap on little camp beds with itchy blankets, happy memories. I didn't move up to the infants as we moved away, my cousins went to the junior school though and, eventually my boys went to the secondary school which was called Herries by then.

Agatha   10 #4 Posted April 15, 2017 Hi, Thanks to everyone who has responded so far. I have now confirmed that Sheffield was responsible for setting the papers. All I have to do now is find the relevant department at Sheffield Education.Here's hoping. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
