Good to hear from you, as always, Horton10.The school started life as
Burbury Street Board School but I doubt anyone attended there from Heaton Street, there were closer schools,
having said that, I ended up at St Mary's Infant School in Handsworth: My Mom worked full time and after only a few weeks at Brookfields School (near Hockley Station) I was moved to St Mary's and then after just a few weeks moved again to Farm Street Infant School -
why? My mother's choice of School for me was wholly dependant on who she could find to look after me.
So, I well remember the start of my school days
for all the wrong reasons. Ah well! That's life - it was 66 years ago.Peg
