Can you imagine what this web site would be like if we were War veterans? 'We will fight em on the beaches, on the sea, on the land, until every blade of grass...
Jill indeed I do. Makes your head go a bit funny as well.Even more so than usual!!! Most of the time I spent in Battersea park was playing football on a sunday...
Andy, Has the badge changed in any ways since the original posted by Mike? And are the House Colours still the same these days? Red-Norman Yellow-Celtd ...
Yes it has changed a couple of times in it's life. I seem to recall a story abut it being a 'downward facing trunk' and then the school became mixed and the...
Stuart I don't know much about the badges' transformation over the years BUT I suppose that the current 'logo', as worn on the sweatshirts, saves mum a bit of...
Hello all! The house colours were: Red-Norman Green-Saxon Blue-Celt Yellow-Dane(My house, and obviously, the best!) Cheers. Colin. (Bored in Memphis) ... ...
I'll ask our honorary archivist about the history of the crest and try to get the definitive answer. He's away for a few weeks so hold fast guys. I'm not...
Dear Chaps and Chapesses If you look out of the westward facing windows of the Geography rooms and divert your gaze downwards you will (hopefully still) see...
Hi Mike, From one former Norman to another 'Bonjour'. Come to think about it yea I suppose they were slightly more pinkish than red. Yes I agree mixed schools...
Hi Colin, To be honest I really couldnt tell the difference, as to which house was the best, except when it came to the sports days, then held at Hurlingham,...
Bonjour Stuart Yes, I certainly benefited from attanding a mixed school......if you know what I mean!! I was at Elliott between late 1960and 1965. Classes as...
Hi Mike, Clearly, we were at the school at the same time. My old class mate Ron reminded me recently that I started in 1961, in classes 1,2,3,4c. (I had...

Hi Mike, I'm delighted that I have another school mate. (yipee) You are absolutley correct about Bobby Booth, he did indeed have two other brothers at the...
Hi Stuart Yes, it's good to know that some of your old school mates are still out there. Shame that so many have either disappeared or are afraid to recall...
Mike Although you are right (in that there are many who have disappeared), there are many who are contactable. If you look at friends reunited there are 50-100...
The Booths were the family to be feared. I lived on the Ashbuton so could never fully escape. That said I knew Bobby and his younger brother Terry quite well....
Yea, it wasn't Jacqui, it was Terry. I thought the younger one's name was Jacqui. Hard but fair, yes I agree with that. Bobby was always looking for a punch up...
Mike, Jeff Ashby was far worse than any of the Booth family. This guy was seriously dangerous. He even used to assault the teachers! Yea he did some serious...
Andy I TRY! I TRY! I TRY! I do tell all that I'm in touch with and hopefully I can get through one day. I was thinking. When people arrive at the reunion, have...
Stuart So Jeff Ashby is the one I remember. A real Dinsdale Piranah if there ever was one. Yes, I do remember a chap called Skipsey. I believe his first name...
Mike, About 12-18 months into my unforgettable sentence at the Elliott, I remember being taught by yet another excentric teacher, a music teacher (cant...
Mike, I had a Mr Walsh as a geography teacher, an elderly guy with glasses.A rite moody git. The unforgettable Mr Parry, who when he issued corporal punishment...
