Save The Memories

“Every time I walk past the school or through the school, it just doesn’t seem real. It doesn’t seem real that come September I won’t see any boys on the rugby pitch. I won’t see any girls on the rounders pitch. I won’t hear music streaming softly out of the music block. I won’t see anyone on the benches. There won’t be any art on the art block walls. I won’t hear the chapel organ on a Tuesday. I won’t rush to Priory to sing in the choir on a Friday. I won’t have the RSM shouting out orders in CCF on a Thursday.

And that’s sad.”

Thing I has written a new post – probably the last she’ll do on the closing of St Bees School. She ponders over the impact of the loss and is a very tender dealing with the subject.

I hate loss – of a school, of a way of life, of a friend – but these things happen for a reason and all you can do is work through them, learn from it all and move on. Thing I is doing that here.
