My memories are more of such things as sports days, activities and assemblies. Assemblies were daily affairs with lusty singing. Even in those early days we seemed crowded in our long narrow hall though we cannot have been because we continued to use the same place even when numbers increased dramatically. Little girls would fall senseless to the floor as the temperature rose and the oxygen level fell but we did not over react. In those first few weeks we did not even have a uniform.
Many people have.
The explanation is not too complicated. Shortly after we opened a tailor brought us his samples of blue and white striped material for the girls' summer dresses but we soon found that it danced before the eyes to a quite unacceptable degree whereas the brown version didn't. Very gradually the school took shape. Classes increased in size, activities prospered and we all settled in to what had been the hospital wards. Concerts came and went, ties were created with other schools and the community and our first year drew to a close.
