with Felicity Baker a past pupil |

"I stared at Blackmoor Park Junior School in 1994.
Mrs Collinson was my year 3 teacher. I remember it felt
strange going from being the top year in infants, to being
the youngest year in the juniors."
| How
long ago were you in this school? |
| "I
was in this school from 1994 to 1998." |
| Did
you like it here? |
| "Yes
of course I did ! It was great" |
| What
was your teachers name? |
"In
year 3 Mrs Collinson
In year 4 Mrs Martin
In year 5 Miss Burgess
In year 6 Mrs Russel" |
"In
year 4 I was in Mrs Martin's class. I remember going on
a trip to Pex Hill. My mum came as a helper and I really
enjoyed it. "
| Were
you upset when you left the school? |
| "I
was because I was leaving all my friends behind." |
| Who
was your head teacher and are they still here? |
| "No,
Mrs Wilson was and she was great." |
"In
year 5 I was in Mrs Burgess' class. That year, in science,
we were looking at space and the planets. We were taken to
the Planetarium at Liverpool Museum. I really enjoyed the
trip and the topic."
| Were
you in any sports teams or clubs? |
| "No
I wasn't in sports teams or clubs but I was in the choir,
drama group and orchestra." |
| What
has changed since you have left? |
| "Lots
have changed - the carpets, the stage, the bomb shelters
and much, much more." |
"In
year 6 I was in Miss Russell's class. For your class assembly
we used the theme of the Victorians. We all had to read the
poem "The Charge of the Light Brigade" together
and I can still remember some of it. I was chosen to be on
the school committee for class. We had to take the Friday
morning assembly. It was hard work but good fun."
| Would
you send you children here? |
| "Yes
because I have been here myself and so I know what it
is like." |
| Did
you ever go on any great trips? |
| "Yes
- when we went to Croxteth Hall we got to dress up like
Tudors and it was really fun." |
"When
I was in years 5 and 6 I was in the drama group, the choir
and the orchestra. I was the narrator in the 1997 Christmas
play called Sheik, Rattle and Roll. I sang at the Philharmonic
Hall with the choir and lots of other schools. I also played
the drums at St George's Hall with the Orchestra. I really
enjoyed most of my time at Blackmoor and was sad when I
had to leave."
| Did
you play an instrument - if so which one? |
| "I
played the drum in the orchestra but I never learnt
to play properly." |
