The summer dresses included blue and we could wear any of the four colours irrespective of our house. In winter the girls' hats could be a sort of grey pudding basin with a brim, but most preferred the smart pork pie style in red. Girls graduated from gym-slips<br />to skirts in the third form I think - when they had waists! Zillah Full was a fearsome Senior Mistress, she was the PE teacher when my Mum was at school. I can remember that we had to kneel on the floor to check that our skirt lengths were right!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5806896152316154316.post-10725838843100279792009-06-05T15:20:42.888+01:002009-06-05T15:20:42.888+01:00Excellent web site Bryan.
