Herries School

Recommended Posts

I Went to Herries from 1976 - 1981

Does anyone remember the Air Dome with it's air lock quite funny when it went down, cutting edge really if the vandals would have let it be...............

Where is Herries School ? I went to Shirecliffe school & left in 1958, the only other school I remember was Longley, it must have been built after I left for Oz.

Miss Cox was head of the Junior school but I can't remember the head of senior- We moved and I finished my schooling at Shiregreen. Shirecliffe must have been built late 30's because it was a fairly modern school for those days.

nanrobbo, I have to agree with you yet again, Shirecliffe was well ahead of it's time, I moved from Crookes school with it's bitumen playground & not much else to Shirecliffe, where I did the last 3 years of my schooling.

I was amazed to find that it had it's own gym, woodwork & metalwork rooms, etc etc,not to mention the big playing fields, at Crookes we had to go to other schools in the area to use their facilities.

Things aint wot they use to be, but it looked the same when I went back for a wander in 1992.
