-Started school 1945, left 1951 aged 15.   Lived at '[[Edgerley]]', [[Loosley Hill Road]].   Now at [[Dumari]], [[Loosley Hill Road]].   Walked to school or caught Famers bus.  The headmistress was Mrs Guerney.  Other teachers Miss Jarvis and Miss Janes.  20 or so in class. There was no moving around for lessons - we remained in our own classroom.  Face orange after teacher smacked me round the face.   Had school meals & enjoyed them.   Had milk a break.  Made a scarf on the school loom.  Played with hoops and marbles.   My mother Mrs Clara Stevens attended this school in 1918.   Daughter Vanessa and grandchildren Hannah and Andrew also attended here so here we have 4 generations spanning 80 years.   There were no morning assemblies each day -but special days were started at church.
+Started school 1945, left 1951 aged 15.   Lived at '[[Edgerley]]', [[Loosley Hill Road]].
-Each day started at 9 am - with three breaks, and finished at 3.30, when it was a walk home.
+living at [[Dumari]], [[Loosley Hill Road]].
-In 1945 an air-raid shelter was positioned on the school playground and I Well remember when the sirens sounded our going into the shelter and put on gas masks
-Additional Information.   Our next-door neighbour had a tame jackdaw and the bird would sometimes follow us to school.   It seemed to know that I didn't like it, so it would swoop down onto my head and peck at the button on my cap.   If a window was open at school or at church the bird would come in.   Reverend Stewart would shout "get that confounded bird out" - as it would sit on a beam or ledge and squark.
-School meals.   Hot dinners were collected from a central kitchen by Mr Hayward of Walers Ash Garage (now Esso).   Later, food was cooked on school premises by [[Mrs Leftwich]] and Mrs Lacey.
