What school did you attend?

Schooling is such a massive part of childhood and everyone has a different experience of it depending on where they attended. So we’re wondering, where did you go to school? Did your kids or grandkids attend the same school?

For many of us, we grew up close to our local school and either walked or caught the bus each day. While the rest of us were from the country and had to attend a boarding school far from home. Either way, there are so many fond (and not so fond) memories that come flooding back simply from looking at photos.

Have a look at these images and tell us what you loved and hated about school!

Do you remember sharing these desks on hot summer days when air conditioning didn’t exist?

And of course, the memories of milk at school! Not such a pleasant memory, though it’s funny to reminisce!
