Today at Nodehill we celebrated our centenary year and reminisced about times gone by. Pupils and staff dressed up in authentic costumes and lessons had an Edwardian flavour. For lunch, the canteen served up lamb stew and dumplings with Brown Betty for dessert and in the afternoon, a celebratory show included performances from past, present and future pupils who wowed us all.
Pictured above are a few ex pupils from the 1940s and 1950's who, over a cup of tea and a biscuit, kindly shared a few fond memories of their time on the Nodehill site and took us down memory lane with their funny and interesting stories of yesteryear.
