I was there until 85.

Remember Mr Fletcher and his mad essays?

Mr Tindall and the tuck shop?

School trips to Hayfield Farm and the Norfolk Broads?

Marvellous days...

Believe it or not Mr. Tindall's still there, as mad as ever! :)

Mr Tingle really doesn't look much different either, still wearing a tracksuit.

 

Miss Jackson is still there as is Mr swift. I am sure those two used to date each other- am I right?

 

I used to hate science,and Mr Polson was one scary guy.I think he used to shove his fingres in a plug socket every morning before school, to get that hair!

Oh my god! He must be ready to retire by now, and Mr Swift and "Miss" Jackson! I've been left 20 years so they've got to be in their sixties!

I was at City from sep 74 to june 79

good days. I came from intake and spent four great years .

Remember watching Arabacus Pulp rehersing ,i knew Jarvis all hs school life as i was with him at Intake primary.Well done Jarvis !!

Remember Mrs Hasty and Mr Gardiner who is now Head of the new school that used to be called Walthof

Chatterton ,Sanderson ,Hughes ,Tingle, St John ,Fletcher, Brown (the man with calipers), Porter ,Ward ,Mr Kita , Mr Nicholls ,and the very fancy mr Harrison(P.B.C.)

Mr Mcpherson took over as deputy Head when I was at City and replaced the very draconian Mr Walker(the corridor patroller).
