The new school is fully operational. It has been built on the opposite side of Exchange Street to the old school. Obviously the children still had to attend the old school whilst the new one was being built. It's very modern compared to the old building(s) with computers in every classroom and interactive whiteboards instead of the old chalkboards. The hall has excellent acoustics - meaning you can actually hear what the children say in assemblies without them having to shout and their little voices getting lost up in the height of the ceiling. The lighting is partially provided by reflective tubes which come down through the roof to bring in the daylight, very impressive.

Reception, Infants and Juniors are now all in the one building. Previously reception class was way over in Hannah Street and one of the Junior classes was housed in a "temporary" prefab hut in the schoolyard.

How long ago did your sister go to Springhill Juniors? Do you know who was head teacher then?

Springhill Methodists is still there, but that's also in a modern building adjacent to the old church which is now a snooker hall or something similar.
