I thank everyone who attended the St Luke's Junior School reunion last Friday.
I was there in 1934-35 but many recognised my name from The Argus. Next year, it will be the school's centenary.
I thank the children for all they did to make us so welcome, bringing us more food, teas and coffees to save us getting up. They read poems, sang and, of course, their orchestra played.
Later in the afternoon, we were taken on tours of the building and shown where they work and their drawings on the walls. They could not have done more for us. They were between eight and 12 and very caring. Finally, I thank all the teachers and helpers who made the lovely sandwiches and cakes but, most of all,
the deputy headmistress, Mrs K Berny, who somehow kept the entire show running smoothly. Roll on next year.
