100 yrs ... Mount Pleasant primary school

Hi, not sure if this is the right place to put this.
Anyway, its Mount Pleasants 100 year annivarsary this year and I am wondering if anyone has any old photos or info on the school.
We are going to be doing some events through the year but we would also like to put an album together about the school and its changes over the years.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Bernie x

Bernie, If I put my thinking cap on I can possibly give you hands on information from the late 1940s and a couple of photos. Roy

Accrington Library has the original papers for 1912, so you can get in there with your camera AND get copies off their copies on microfilm.
