I was at Longstone Primary until I think about 1962 and Mr Gibson was my final year teacher. We had three sets of twins in our class, I think Robert and Alan Spence were one pair. My best friend was Sally Jarvis. I'd love to hear from some of my classmates, I have emailed a photo of our class. I have been living in South Africa since 1964.

I attended from 1961 to 1968. I just loved Longstone Primary. I had Miss Johnson as my teacher and whilst she was pretty fierce she was also fair. I was Captain of Juniper Green when they won after the big drought of not winning for about 12 years or so. I live in Australia now and my nieces go to Longstone school and I get very nostalgic when I see photos.

I attended Longstone from 1958-1965. I loved school, but hated it when our small bottles of milk were frozen in winter! We defrosted them by the radiators.

I remember some of the teachers as being very fait, but others as bordering on psychotic. In particular I remember Mr. Gibson who reigned by terror over the entire school.

Sorry, If you've not retired yet!

We have been learning about our school in the olden days and the furutre. We looked at your website to see what a city school is like because we are a small country school.
We only have 45 pupils in our school. We enjoyed looking at your website P3/4/5

Hi Class of '54!
Just accessed the new webiste - looking good.
I am hoping some of my fomrer class-mates and friends will remember me from
the old school and the "new".
I was very friendly with Douglas Muir, who transferred to Heriot's, and we
were near neighbours, and sayed friendly until around 1958/59 after which
time I had moved down to Peebles, (and was never as happy there as had been
in Longstone). I also remember Stanley Reid, Alex Borthwick, Jacqueline ?,
and other faces whose names have gone now.
We were taught, in 1957, by a Miss Greig, and the Head was a Mrs Phillips.
To this day, I have kept my old school tie!
If any of the 1954 intake remember me, would really like to hear from you
all and how Life is treating you.

Best wishes,
Ron Irvine

Hello folks,  my name is James Hey I attended Longstone Primary School from 1945 to 1952. Starting of in the old village school then
moving to the Red Hall Annex with Mrs Lusk as our teacher.
I have lived in the USA since 1971 with my wife and 3 children and would like to know if any of the old gang are still in touch as we seemed to scatter to the four winds after school finished.
Would like to here from anybody who is still arround.
                                                                  Jim Hey.
