Re: pictures of your schools.

I'd put a pic on but my school is so far removed from how it was when I was there that it is unrecognisable!

My primary school; the main building is little changed since I was there.




My secondary school. It has been greatly extended since the 70s, repainted etc. I couldn't find a better picture I'm afraid.

No darren, I now live nearly 300 miles away from the school, though my Mum, Dad and brothers live close by so I see the school sometimes when I visit.

I need to take some pics of my old high school -- a complex of ugly concrete buildings with narrow gun slit windows that looks like a prison.

Also my secondary has been there since 1913, but was founded in the 1400s

Wow!
The school where I work at the moment is celebrating its centenary this year but my own primary was built in about 1966 and my secondary a few years later.

The primary I put the picture on was built in 1927. My secondary was Hamilton Grammar School if you fancied a look.

...Hamilton Grammar School if you fancied a look.

I just Googled it. What a striking and imposing building.

I found one of my old school yearbooks. This picture was taken in either 1975 or 76.

Re: pictures of your schools.

I have been thinking about my old school a lot from the age of 8 _11,I cannot remember much about the infants.I have tried to research my old school photos but nothing showed up,had a look at a few different sites but nothing and I thought the best option would be to contact the central library but seeing they are shut no joy there.There were 32 pupils in my class 16 boys 16 girls I was thinking about where each of us used to sit and who next to,curious indeed how many are still around how many have past I know one girl died 18 months ago.Does anyone else think about your class mates

Re: pictures of your schools.

With regards to the schools that I went to, just imagine a "run of the mill" building with an entrance at the front, and a sign with council or LEA logo and school name outside.

in response to Amethyst's question about whether we think about former classmates, the answer is yes - I mentioned the fact that I was in touch with a former one in time for my 40th birthday, but decided that too much water had passed under the bridge over the years in order to get together - I decided to leave the past in the past where it belongs. And there was someone in my class who was killed just a few years ago, and since then I have thought of local journalists as being too speculative to be honest - this is why I never read local newspapers or watch or listen to local news.
