Teachers I remember at St Oswalds Miss birch my very first teacher. Miss Gardiner Head teacher.
every Friday we were marched to Sacred Heart church for benediction. Every Monday Father Stack ( I Think ) would come and grill us if we had been to church on the Sunday.
At Paddock the houses were
Augustine, Moore, Campion and Fisher Head teacher Sister Mary Magdalene
Rhyddings always took the mickey out of us due to the uniform.
the dog biscuit factory used to stink in the summer
Looking back they were happy days
