My Mum Came To My School

Yesterday we were lucky to have Aly's mum come to our classroom and speak to us about what St. Luke's was like when she came here as a student. Rachael came to St. Luke's in 1986 and she was here for Years 4,5 and 6. These are some of the interesting facts that she shared with us -

• the Discovery Centre used to be the toilets
• they had Tuck Shop everyday
• the Senior Rooms were the Staffroom and Library
• there were no whiteboards just blackboards
• there were no computers in the classrooms
• the Hall used to be the Church
• the Hall hasn't changed
• the children wore woollen jumpers with no emblem
• they didn't have Letterland
• the children got awards
• children could wear a school badge
• the playground equipment was made out of wood so the children used to get splinters
• Mrs Luzza taught her
• Mrs Davey drove Rachael home from school

Thank you Rachael for sharing your memories with us.
