was there until 1960, then moved house, and went to St John Fisher Jnrs.

I remember Sister Cecelia, and Sister Lucy. My two older sisters, and two older brothers also went there. Wow, thats a blast from the past!!

I can remember Kathlene Lawson, and there were twins, Rita and Susan, the Granelli twin boys. I remember the ice-cream van turning up on their birthday, and getting a cone from the van, as a treat. My little brother kicked Sister Cecelia in the shins as we lined up to go back in after break, i was made to take him home and tell my mother not to send him back until he could behave himself! To be fair, she was pulling and pushing him by the shoulders, and he was only new at school, usually a very quiet polite boy.

Anyone else out there ??

I was there in the 60's...believe Sister Catherine was headmistress...Brother Smith was there...can hardly remember the names of the teachers tho?...Mr Hosty..Maths....might be wrong and a teacher that married Sherwood...an athlete...?

Loved it at St Vincents....but hated St Pauls...the secondary school...and walked past the place many a time when i should have been going in...as I would rather sit on a Norfolk park bench than have a french lesson with bad tempered French teacher who I will not name on here

I loved St Vincents...hated St Pauls...dunno why....St Vincents was a lovely school...Me Dad kept the Star and Garter pub at the time and I used to jump out of bed to go to school....

St Pauls was totally different...no sense of community..and teachers i thought at the best... indifferent ...at the most...uninterested...and in the case of one or two...downright violent...I know that sounds dramatic...but stuff went on in that school that would make headlines today...Ive seen a teacher throw a blackboard rubber and hit a girl on the head...ive seen a teacher turn a desk over onto a pupil...(The same teacher by the way)...I'm sure some of the teachers at the place were brilliant...unluckily for me...I only ever met a couple of 'em...and it put me off school for life...
