School in the 60's

Couple of threads and lots of beer have got me feeling a little nostalgic.
What are your memories of your very first school?
Mine.
Going for a kip after lunch. (This really happened kids)
Little bottle of milk.
Taking home daffodil bulbs,hoping for a coloyr picture of said bloom as a prize. Poorer efforts were rewarded with a black n white photo.
My sister getting into lots of fights. With boys. She kicked arse.
Yours?

First day, a little girl lobbed a wooden brick at me. I lobbed it straight back.
She didn't get caught. I did.
Surprisingly, as it was in the Dark Ages, I don't think I got corporal punishment, but got a very stiff ticking off.

Ink wells and broken nibs
Cathochism
Football at 11 and lunchtime, games of marbles that were a matter of life and death
Milling out on a Friday at 3.30 to the newsagents for Shoot and Goal, happy days.

I described my teachers as psychopathic, you described them as sadistic. We are both on the same wavelength I went to SWHT 1963-68

Every year, Santa would visit the caretaker's house opposite the school before coming to the party to hand out gifts.
I was happy skipping all the way home and the wife told me (yet again) that Santa was not real :-(

Got threatened with the cuts in primary school, got 2 sets in secondary school, one was for drawing a line without a ruler in Technical drawing (fair play on that one), and 2 sets of cuts in Technical school
I love school, me

Thanks to afternoon breaks, I know what anarchy looks like.
Deptford Boys were always supposed to be coming up the hill to wait until we got out at 15h45. They never did.

School in the early 70’s in Australia
Starting the day with each form class standing and singing GOD SAVE THE QUEEN and reciting the Lords Prayer. Not sure if the new national Anthem is sung these days but am sure the latter doesn’t happen
Being sent to the headmaster for cuts was standard practice
In early high school a disruptive chemistry class was brought to order by the teacher grabbing the long hair of a boy and bashing his forehead into the desk. Everyone just shut up and got on with the lesson and it went no further. No one got sued or sacked and no students went into therapy

We only had a couple of teachers in the school, the rest were all nuns. Contrary to what you might think, the teachers were great. The nuns walked about with old wooden rules which served only one purpose. They weren't measuring anything, the horrible witches.

60's ? I have no idea but it must have been scary with all the dinosaurs roaming about.

They sat our class in alphabetical order. I had to share a twin desk with a right psychopath who liked to play practical jokes.. It was no use retaliating against him because you knew he wouldn't stop until he did something even worse in return .
He ended up as a leading biochemist, I ended up posting on WHO. I think there's a link somewhere.
