My mate went to St Bonnies in the late 60s.Quote:

It's interesting listening to accounts about school life there, and very sad to hear that after 1973 was the demise of this fine school.
Tragic when the results of a fire took its toll on the building.

I went to St Michael's RC Primary in Guion Street off Boaler St. Then to Our Lady of Fatima split between Mill Rd and Margaret St in Everton.
Hi, I used to go to Ranworth Square infants and juniors, from about 1958. I then went on to Abbotsford, Secondary Modern, I remember crying when I found out I had to go there( I lived just around the corner) Because, as I put it. "The boys all swear" lol. Anyhow after about 12 months, Abbotsford merged with Ellergreen to become a Comprehensive. I now really thought I was posh going there.
That is great, I left Ellergreen in 69, and also went to Ranworth, but a lot earlier than you. lol. Dont know whether any of the old teachers that I remember would have been there when you were there. Mr Murphy (P.E) Mr Turner (English) Miss Woods, Miss Jackson, Mr Williams, Mrs Scott (Music) Mrs Dyson? How do you put pics on here? I have one taken when I was in a school play in Ranworth, which I would like to put on, just in case anyone recognises themselves.
he was a great footballer if he played to day he would be booked every match because you cant make a good tackle any more with all the diving

Yeah that's the one Ged....I may well have been one of those scrawny kids in that photo! I remember the teacher ( Mr. Coleclough ) He had a fearsome collection of canes all of which he used quite freely!
The School was great though! Summers in the playground with the smell of strawberry Jam wafting over from Hartleys mixed with the smell of rubber from the Dunlop factory off Stalamine Road...Great! :)
Nice one Linda. Have you managed to suss how to post a pic yet ? It's easy when you know how.Quote:

A faint and admittedly tedious link - It was also the School that taught Alan Ball and Kenneth Wolstenholme (A lifelong Bolton Wanderers fan). Who'd have thought they'd come together a few years later as they did..........and they thought it was all over?
Alans family lived in the street behind where I used to live, and Kenneth was from Walkden, a few minutes away.
Just nostalgia for you :)
Dont get too excited its only a pic of me with some other kids in fancy dress, taken in the school hall about 1961/62 ish. hahaQuote:

Belter pics them Linda. I'd love to see a few pics of the wooden huts we had.
It's changed a lot since those pics.
You must of been leaving Ranny when I started. You where probably in my brothers year.
Ta for them. Very good (don't stop there).:PDT_Piratz_26::handclap:
You made a cute fairy,Linda! :nod:
One of those pics above (pic 5) was taken in the court yard. It was the only place with a bit of grass on. Sometimes in the summer, if you where lucky, you'd get to have a few hours in the sun doing school work. It was a big treat and made our day. :D
