The Junior School not quite as I remember it; there was a dividing wall to the right of the photograph, maybe it’s still there? This wall with just a small adjoining gap, kept the boys from the girls. Yes we had separate yards to play in, not that it kept us separated for long! The yard that can be seen was the boys yard and school entrance and I don’t remember the small gardens being there do you?
