\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>Recently both the Sunshine and Rainbow Rooms were lucky to have visits from children’s grannies who gave us a fantastic insight into life in the past.
\nRohan’s Granny is an expert on how life used to be in Hecklegirth School because she was a teacher here for a long time. It was great to be able to compare school life then with now and the children certainly didn’t like the sound of “the belt” which was used in her time.
\nKatie’s Granny talked to the children about how the buildings in Annan had changed and brought in some pictures of the shops from years ago. The children also compared their favourite toys with the ones she had played with and talked about school life.

Your stories certainly captured the children’s imaginations and brought the past to life. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
