White House school 1959

Another one for you Sheila;
We were known as "The Bumble Bees" because of our striped school blazers and woe betide we should meet any of the Warrenby boys when we were outside of school, they certainly teased us and any chance they got they would snatch our school straw hats and use them as Frisbees.
