My father was
evacuated to Lytham St. Annes on 2/09/39. I am trying to find out any
information of the school he was sent to. The school in the sun. I would
love to be able to give my dad a history of the school.

Blast from the past! I
was at mcr rd from 76-81. Remember Mr Pickford (jolly green giant), think I
sat next to Judith in his class. Mrs Bird ,Miss Trill and Mr Blease (footy
coach). I remember being a biscuit boy going round the classes selling
crisps etc before break ( bet that's not allowed now) and being scared stiff
going into Mr Beaumont's class to be made a fool of. Teds v froggits at
break time when not playing utd v city at footy. Great memories.

Hello all, what a
great site!... and a huge shock to see myself on one of the old photos in
the archive pics!! lol Regarding J. Rothwells comments in the archived
Guestbook, I agree - there doesn't seem to be many of us from early 70's to
the beginning of the 80's. Amidst many fond memories, I too was fortunate
enough to be taught by Mr. Beaumont. What a fantastic teacher he was! Put
the fear oh God into me when I first encountered him (for talking in
assembly!), and I spent the whole summer holidays panicking when I found out
he was to be my teacher in the new term LOL! How wrong I was, he was the
best teacher ever (not sure the boys who experienced his punishments would
agree!). Pigs trotters were another of his favourites, which he used to send
one of us into the butchers for on the way home from swimming. My mum still
has the scarf he taught me to weave on the loom! Very best wishes to
Manchester Road school and all its pupils, past and present, and
congratulations on a great site! Judith Whitley (nee Strudwick)

in a previous email i mentioned a girl in one of my classes, vera bartrip,
she was an evacuee who i became friends with. noone else has referred to
evacuees nor is there a mention in the centenary book.i do not remember if
it was at the start of the war or towards the end, when she came to the
school. i can't even remember how long she stayed.
my name was gorrell when i was at school.
if anyone remembers anything about any evacuees i would be pleased to hear
from them.

back fond memories. Names of people that come back to me are Lynn Harrison,
Lynn Pervical which are obviously maiden names mine being Elaine Holt from

My sister Beryl and I attended M/c. Rd. between 1942-1952 in fact we lived
next door to the school as the back of our house backed on to Water Lane so
there was never any excuse to be late. I remember the prefabs being built ,
my bedroom overlooked them, they were supposed to be only 'temporary'. As I
lived so close to school and my elder sister was already a pupil I was a
regular visitor 'via the back door' plying the infant teacher Miss Duncan
with gifts of dandelions etc. just to get my feet under the table , it
worked for most of the time.
We had some excellent teachers Miss Sumners, Miss Stait, Miss Hallows (very
good with the cane on ones knuckles) Mr Richards, Mr Lawton who organised
some fantastic trips, and our head Mr Gleave just to name a few.
I can remember in winter when we had snow and ice our playground would be
awash with the most fantastic slides, and as we lived next to school it was
also our playground at night.
The time we had at M/c Rd can only be described as truly wonderful and
provided us with memories that will be with us for ever.
