Banstead Village

The hall, secondary building, stairs to Head's office behind the camera.

We used to be taken here to sit on the floor and watch a schools' programme on a portable TV that was wheeled out. (1973/4 ish). Best part of the day that, apart from marbles games outside.

We also had singing lessons with Mrs Sailsbury/Soulsbury (sp???)...

I did not like her at all. To the right, for a while - maybe near the nearest radiator, they had the "Banda" spirit ink duplicating machine that used a gel coated master that the teacher typed through without a ribbon, then spirit blue/purple ink was used to go through the typed impressions and print onto plain paper multiple times for handouts. Sometimes the print was so fresh that it was still stinky.

Days before photocopiers :->>>
