I have only just joined this forum and read all comments on prefabs in Heaton Park. We lived on Erlmere Dr, my name was Carole Hill and I went to Parkside school, my friends there were Linda Lee and Kathleen Whitehead. I remember Jean Worsley well, I once went to her house for tea(egg and chips I think) I was a bit envious of Jean who's house was tidy and correct with a tablecloth and glasses of water on the table etc, my mum was great but very disorganised.I also remember Roberta Goodalf, she was in my class and I was on the netball team(for a while) and the rounders team ,I have a picture of the team, will dig it out and post it. I remember all the teachers mentioned, and Joyce Whitehead, I went to a birthday party at her house and her mum made tiny pink merangues, I was in awe! I also remember Barbara and David Greenburg, John Seldon and his little brother Philip(I think) who lived opposite us. Marsha Mendellson( who we all thought came from a rich family) she brought a block of Walls neapoliton icecream into school on her birthday to share with friends. I also remember Albert Bowers, Sheila Ryan, twins Susan and Christine, a lovely girl in class called Deborah ? who looked after me on my first day as I joined school when about 6 or 7yrs. I also remember Barbara Bond who went on to Mcr central high. we were so sad to leave it broke my mother 's heart.
