I'm pleased to hear you enjoyed our virtual tour & thank you for your comment

Good site!

not that much has changed since i left in 2002 except the nursery and where the little playground used 2 b, now known as the multi use playyard

What a charming video. Well done Year 6, I now know a little more about your school and would love to make a visit to see you all in person soon.

Thanks, Jayne. If you're a former pupil/member of staff then you will be more than welcome to visit our school. Especially before we move to our new site over the summer. Keep checking this weblog for further details or contact the school & speak to a member of staff.

Lovely to see the video of the school. I left the school in 1973 to go to Dunston Comp. and now live near Rugby. Much of the school building looks the same and watching the video brought back some happy memories.
I did wonder if the headmaster's office looked the same as when I had to visit the then headmaster, Mr Ebdon, but given the circumstances perhaps I was better not seeing it!!!
Good luck with the move. Nice to see that the video will preserve the old building for posterity,
Regards

A very enjoyable trip down memory lane. I was at the school (including infants) from 1962 until 1967 when I left to attend what is now Kings Meadows Comprehensive (at that time Dunston Hill Secondary School). Lots of changes but the main buildings are very much as they were. I now live in Northumberland but clearly remember my school days in Dunston. My headmaster at that time was Mr Ebdon, a very strict disciplinarian with a very large facial mole and a similarly bushy/twirly moustache. My last form Teacher was Miss Arkless, a very large and strict lady who could maintain discipline by just a certain look. I would love to visit the school again at some stage and share some of these memories with present day students. Well done to the video's authors.
