mick58ward   10 #1 Posted December 16, 2017 (edited) Hello folks, Does anyone remember singing, as part of a school event, Christmas Carols on the city hall steps in the late 1960's-early 1970's? I believe that I was at King Edward V11 school, but it could have been earlier, when I was at Lydgate Lane Junior school. My memory isn't what it used to be, but the only other child I remember there was my neighbour, Susan Hatcliffe. Does anyone remember taking part or even have any photos.

melv   16 #2 Posted December 17, 2017 I remember singing outside the cathedral in 1968. My school was Dykes Lane Academy for Young Gentlemen,(Jordanthorpe) I can recall everything going wrong as the sound system was not very good. The music teacher was Mr Kirkwood, who was excellent.

mick58ward   10 #3 Posted December 17, 2017 (edited) Hi melv, Hmmm, sounds like the right era, but mine was definitely on the City Hall steps, I can remember the memorial column opposite. Maybe they had a different school each year, or maybe they had more than one school together. I was either at Lydgate Lane Junior School, or King Edward Seventh on Darwin Lane. All I can recall is how cold it was and the back of a girl's head! Edited December 17, 2017 by mick58ward Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

mick58ward   10 #5 Posted December 18, 2017 Hi Sherman, I wish I could get to the bottom of this. All my life, I've been under the impression that it was only my school and that I was 'honoured' to have been chosen. lol;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
