            50th Birthday Celebrations

Sunnymede Primary School opened 50 years ago this September. To mark this special event the Infant and Junior Schools held a Golden Day on Friday 26th September. The children baked and iced special cakes and we held a tea party in the school hall. Parents who came to Sunnymede as pupils were also invited to our tea party and afterwards, they kindly went into the classes to answer questions that the children had prepared about 'what school was like for them'.

 

 

We would also be delighted if you would share some of your memories with us by leaving them in the guestbook section on this website. We would like to share these on this 50th Birthday Celebrations Page.

 

School Memories

Sharon Smith nee Cornes
 

I attended Sunnymede from 1974-1981. Mrs Howarth was my teacher in my first year and we had a classroom in the demountables that have since been demolished! Now I feel old!!
Mrs Barr was my teacher in my second year and Mrs Grottick in my third. The hall always smelt of school dinners - they were tasty but we always had mash and peas and afterwards some giant sponge tray bake with either pink or yellow custard!!
I remember one hot day being taken to the field where the head teacher gave us all a mini milk ice lolly! Happy days!!

What great days i had at the Infant and Junior School, the best days of my school years i would say ! Do you remember the swimming pool out on the back field, it was really cold and i can remember having to climb the steps to get in but great fun..... Good memories of the Infant school was the long corridor and the setps outside the Heads office and the demantables outside, we got wet if it was raining but it was fun. The Hall where we did our Nativity Plays always had a smell that to this day i can`t fathom what is smelt like ! The p.e. equipment that we pulled away from the walls? ? FAB DAYS

I started Sunnymede School in September 1960 and the 3 years I was there were the best of my school days. I attended the recent Golden Birthday celebrations and was delighted to meet staff from my era! Who remembers Mrs. Stevenson and Miss Mayles? There were also many familiar faces from my daughters' days at Sunnymede ..Mrs. Rowley, Mrs Barr, Mrs Shannahan Mrs Grottick and of course Mr Cox. Now my granddaughter is the third generation to go to Sunnymede and I look forward to many more years of association with the schools...the happiest school I know!
