Sitting on a wooden floor singing “cauliflowers fluffy”
Did you go to the same school as me!!! I think I sat next to you 🤣🤣
Was “the apparatus” that wooden climbing frame thing that was folded away against one wall in the assembly hall of every primary school that got used maybe once or twice in a kid’s whole time at the school?
Time standing still on the day of breakup for summer holidays.
Crack the whip and red rover.
Being absolutely chuffed when the TV got wheeled in
Give me oil in my lamp keep me burninggggg 🎵😂
Conkers! I’m collecting conkers! 🎵
We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun 🎵
A few more:
Cross country, saved for the very coldest days
Parsnips, disguised as chips
The school office and taking the register there after form
French
Bunsen burners
Pepsi pencil case used to hit hard. 🤣🤣🤣
Oh, the Apparatus!
Meatballs at school were a different entity, you could never replicate them outside of school. I don’t care what anyone says, school meatballs were heaven. Also semolina, never saw that outside of school.
using a candy necklace as a catapult
Um Bongo? They drink it in the Congo!
Lunch boxes used to be boss as well before Jamie Oliver ruined it for everyone.
Bottle of Sunny D, handful of Pringles in one of those Pringle shaped holders that you could get in all sorts of colours, some even with sparkle on them, a rocky bar and a pack of Bn Bns
im not british but many of them are very relatable for me
No-one mentioned ‘kiss chase’ and ‘British bulldog’ yet?
The smell of the duplicator.
‘got….got….got…got…Need!’
Where is “The Overhead Projector”?
Shatterproof Ruler?
Challenge accepted.
Wow reading that takes me back nigh on 50 years……..I remember every one of those ……..👌
The smell of the wooden floor in the assembly hall
A pencil case full of pencils with broken leads because you play drums on the edge of the desk.
The television which was wheeled in and was in a cabinet was another one for me.
“To be a pillock” extra loud when signing the “to be a pilgrim” bit out of the hymn “he who would valiant be”
Forgot rubbers were erasers, I was like damnNNNN ok messy
Surely it’s the green custard over the yellow?!
Top trumps on the last day!
Read the list, sang the fifth item! And I’m sure I’m not the only one!
I cannot relate to copying homework on the bus. Maybe for secondary school but absolutely no way for primary. Don’t even think my primary had a bus service, does any primary?
Tipex graffiti – I.D.F.T
My best childhood memory was living in a world without shite facebook memes like the above.

The caretaker and the sawdust bucket.
Jerusalem on St George’s day.
5 GOOOLLLDDD RINGS and a rush to the Partridge in a pear tree.
