Title: Save our school

I heard about this campaign and urge anyone with nothing better to do
on a Friday afternoon to listen to this and support these kids so they
can save their school.  They've even been on Richard & Judy singing.

Aww


Three local school's are closing near me, including my daughter's school. They are going to build a huge Academy. No one wants it. They are going to cram 2,300 kids into a huge glass dome.


Luckily, my daughter is finishing her A Levels and is heading off for university so she won't suffer but many local kids will.

unfortully it a lose casue !

if the council want to spend the £70, 000 a year on a school bus instead of school there will do it.

other problem is that there is a falling school attencede meaning there will need Less school in the futher unless we suddenly have an Baby boom ( which help the ecomany and porvide More taxs to pay for Our pension)

Children in key stage 1 get a piece of fresh fruit or veg a day- sometimes they get these tiny cucumbers which they love.  Some kids at my school have milk at break time which parents choose them to have, it isn't free but i think it is pretty cheap.  Also I think kids on free school meals get their milk paid for, but I'm not certain about that.  I do know that we were stopped from giving them proper milk in cups due to health and safety, now they have those cartons of UHT and fewer of them drink it! Plus they love to inflate them and then burst them over the playground which in the heat is not good!

I have just seen the school, it looks just like mine which I can see closing soon as only OAPs and holiday home owners can afford to buy in the area.  We end up having to poach from the neighbouring schools which puts a lot of pressure on us teachers to make our school the best at everything.

Don't you just love the song though?  Let's get it in the charts
by downloading it.  The more money they make, the less likely the
school will close.

When I was at school the cartons of milk were about 12p. I loved them.
SOme people used to get 2 cartons and sip both through straws, and the
greedier kids had 3.

About 15 or 16 I suppose.  This was in about 1979 - 1980.  Perhaps I'm forgetting the better ones.  I was too busy birdwatching. bounty hunter38907.5224189815

Incidentally, I used to hate school milk.  It made me feel sick.  That's going back a LONG way. 


Nearly all my memories of school are bad ones.  I was misunderstood both by teachers and pupils alike.

If you think these kids are irritating little bleeders who should keep their noses out of things that don't concern them, click here to vote to close the school down:
