Extract from guestbook
Feb.2006, Glenda
Croll (nee McCrone), Suffolk, England. age 52
I first attended Queen Mary St, then on to
Dalmarnock Primary then John Street. I have just read through all the
guestbook entries and am flooded with memories. Like John Paton and Willie
McArthur said Ms Kenny was wonderful. I was in two of her classes, the
first when she was Ms Kenny and later when she became Mrs Crosbie.
I remember being frightened of Miss Dow and Mr Wright the Deputy Head in
my time. I remember the dreaded tin showers and carbolic soap, dinner
tickets at 4/9 pence and singing to music played of the school radio which
was fixed to the wall. I lived at 741 London Road, three up. At
street level was McConnel's the news agents where I got my Beano and Dandy
comics then the Judy and Jackie. My time at Dalmarnock has happy memories
and I think we got an education which holds up well anywhere.
