Tales Out of School eBook

Colwyn Bay Heritage Group is very pleased to announce the launch of our latest eBook – Tales Out of School. This collection of memories of schooldays, along with photographs, is available to download here as a free PDF booklet.

Local author Cindy Lowe (Colwyn Bay Accredited: the wartime experience and To Where We Once Belonged: Colwyn Bay Revisited) has compiled the booklet with the support of other group members.

Colwyn Bay Memories TALES OUT OF SCHOOL Edition 1 2018

The Pier Memories booklet is in pdf format to ensure it can be read by anyone who has the free Adobe Acrobat Reader. You can download the reader here.

Cindy Lowe: The collection of these memories has been sporadic, from those people found at random and willing, from those who have time and inclination to share the memories, and those who have been referred by others. Some memories are from the 1940s, wartime days. In all the collection is but a tiny sample across all establishments and all eras. Some of the teachers who worked at schools in our town are legendary, others don’t get a mention in this collection, they may have been less popular or not memorable enough to appear here and so are consigned to obscurity despite all their efforts, but better than being singled out for detrimental reasons. Some are remembered for their discipline or their idiosyncrasies and not for what they actually were supposed to have taught us, others have been inspirational in influencing our future.

Our thanks to everyone who’s contributed memories and photographs.

If you have memories or photographs you’d like to share do please use our contact us page.
