Flash
Ley Community Primary School, Nursery and Speech and Language Centre THE WAY WE WERE |

A school was first opened on the Flash Ley site on 11th
September 1951. There was an infant school on the site of the present
primary school and the junior school was on the part of the campus now
occupied by the Flash Ley Resource Centre. A middle school was opened
on the present site in 1980 but then reverted to a primary school in 1988. We have some pictures from the 1950s and 1960s (Click on any picture to enlarge) |
