Carbrook School

[Clifflad 10]

Which Carbrook School? If you mean the one at the top of Janson St me and my brothers and sisters attended during the years 1958 and 1963. Our names are Steve, Jean Sue Alan and Angela Suckley.

 

Dont remember the name of Miss Sanderson. I do recall Miss Renshaw; Mrs Dobson: Mrs Featherstone; Mr Wilde. Mrs Tucker; Miss Middleton; Miss Carr; Miss Valentine.

 

There are 2 threads you might find useful - anyone from attercliffe and anyone from carbrook.

 

 

I think Miss Carr was the headmistress. Miss Renshaw's first name was Beryll.

 

Think Mrs Gillett was a teacher there , she used to take rounders. I remember Miss Wilson too - it was her first teaching post.

I received the cane from Miss Renshaw in 1954 and it still stings.

Can anyone let me know if Carbrook County School at the top of Janson Street is still standing - someone said it is now a pub. Is Coleridge Road School still there or been demolished.

 

I attended both but have not been to Sheffield for the last 30 years I have lived overseas in Paraguay since 1970.

Phillimore and Carbrook County both attended Coleridge Rd Sec' Mod at 11 years of age.

 

Remember lots of fights on the ' tip ' to get the pecking order from the two schools.

Did anyone used to go in the recreation ground ' reck ' and use the tennis courts.

 

There were two entrances one from Terry Street and another near the park - keepers entrance.

My mother went to Carbrook School, though a bit earlier than this. Joan Peacock was her name. She also has a sister Hilda, brothers Malcolm, George and Geoff. I forget the name of the street...there was an old joiners workshop on the corner and it met Broughton Lane near the Bird in Hand. It may have begun with 'M' and ran opposite to Raven something street. The Twiggs lived in the same yard. Any help would be a help to but some names together, it holds good memories for me

 

i remember the twiggs sheila was my age
