Trying to think of something humane or sensitive to say about my unfortunate time here but sorry I fail. I attended 80 to 85. It was a [Redacted. Ed]-hole and I have zero friends from my time here which says it all and the only friends I managed to retain when I left for a few years were simply because they were into drugs. I should never have been sent here but sadly my parents were ignorant and mistakenly believed it was good school.
I started September 1980 and hated it. Was bullied and picked on. Despite being told I would amount to nothing by a certain year master I run a successful computer repair business and live in somerset
I was at St Michael’s from 71-76, generally very happy memories, the school was unusual as it was built as a co ed school but the Sisters wanted segregated education and the council had to build St Angela’s in the town for the girls. It was fairly new when I joined and it was sad to see it demolished in the early 80’s for housing.
Omg! I am sitting in my house in Melbourne Australia reminiscing about my short time spent at a great school. I left St Michael’s in 1975 with my parent to migrate to Australia and I can’t help feeling a bit sad I never ever kept in touch with my class mates. Definitely along time ago but filled with awesome memories. Kind regards Richard James Luff ps if any of my class mates read this message pls feel free to contact me on Facebook

I started this school in 1968 and left in 1973
Whatever happened to my mate David Parker?

Would [like] to touch base with students who attended the school between 1977-1980
I attended the school between 1977-1980 before my family moved to Australia. Lots of great memories
Conrad, hello there. It’s been a while…. hope your well.
I was there 79-86. Great times. Remember last two entries. Clive and Dominic. Hello!

Was a [redacted Ed.] school, glad it’s been demolished

Wow!!! Brings back memories. I was there 79-83. Seems like a lifetime ago now.
I started the school in 1979 and it looked just the same as in this photo.
