Newhaven
I have been looking at the old photos of
Newhaven. I went to Vicky Primary. I remember them digging the
foundations for the new houses, There were thousands of sea shells,
I remember trying to look for dinosaur bones,
not that I found any.

recollections of Victoria school.

1950s
Milk
"I lived on
Annfield Road in the early fifties, where I attended Victoria
School. I had the duty of delivering the crates of milk to the
classrooms by sliding them down the slick concrete floor of the
corridor to the classrooms."
Dodo
"Somehow an
image that seems to stay with me is a display case in the main
hallway containing a stuffed Dodo amongst other exotic creatures."
Headmaster
"I also remember
a Mr. Mackenzie who was a headmaster there. He had a huge red
mustache."
