Hi everyone at Fourlanesend. It's Will here, the new pupil! I really enjoyed the Pendennis Castle trip today. You've got a great school, I can't wait to start in September. Byeeeeeeeeee

I attended Fourlanesend from 1955 to 1961 and remember my time there with great affection. There was so much to do. The sports days we such great fun. Does anyone remember the gardening classes? Brilliant!

Hello remember me Darren Mitchell the most annoying kid ever im missing every one from Torpoint school and Millbrook hope I bump in to one of you oneday.

It was great fun, as we were all included in a Mayday practice dance in school last week. we all learnt a new dance and had a load of fun. lots of us are intending to participate in the Mayday celebrations on Monday. we always wear red and white as it is traditional.

I love this school, it's
really good to see people still
come on here!

Hello everyone,
I am missing you all loads.
I wish you all a happy new year,
and thank you for having me on the last day. I had great time.
See you soon!

Hello, everyone!

I hope you are all well?

We are reasonably settled after a stressful summer. The children are happy in their new school, although they miss Fourlanesend, as do I.

Ella spent a lovely last day of term there (thank you to Mrs Selbie and the staff for having her) and both her and Tom are keeping in touch with many of their old mates.

Happy New Year to you all and if you are passing close by our door do call in; it would be lovely to see you.

Love and best wishes from me and the crew.

been living in australia for 20 years now, found website by chance and discovered a picture of myself in the archive section..... cool

For older photographs check out the archive from the contents page. All contributions welcome.

it's a good site but theres no pictures before 2005, it would be so much better because you only have one of this year.
So get some better ones lol

hi every one i am mising you loads, but i like my new school (but i like fourlanesend better!) we had a wacky slipper day on friday for children in need, see you soon from ella peers

Excellent site, well done. Thank you to staff and pupils for all your support in my fundraising for various cancer charities in 2006/07.
Be happy.

Hi everyone,

Hello everyone at Fourlanesend it's Frankie Obviously. Just wanted to say hi to all the new pupils at the school (especially Ted Glasspool he is my cousin) and teacher?s bye.

Just looking around this website it's hard to beleive that in 1954 i also climbed the hill from Millbrook to your school.I've lived in South Australia for the past 38 years so it's nice to remember some of the names like Messres Coon and Easom.I must admit by the look of the photos of the staff they are much better looking than in 1954
Keep up the good work Alan Pugh

Missing u all and have so much fun in are new school. Its our headteachers last day today so we are going in the sports hall to have the whole school saying goodbye. Missing u all and cant wait to see the new playground it lookes really good and I wish that we were there to play on it bye bye .

I want to say what a class school u have here and I just wanted to say hi to my brother fred.

Hi everyone I just wanted to say hi and a merry christmas. I am loving all of my new friends and I miss you lots. p.s Mrs Harris I've got you a christmas card

My great-grandfather lived in Cawsand as an adult having been born in Millbrook but I don't know where he went to school. Greetings to everyone at Fourlanesend from Millbrook Methodist Church www.millbrookmethodist.org.uk

Hello
I curently live in London with my Husband and two children of 7 and 18 months. We have visited Kingsand and Cawsand many times and at different times throughout the year both quiet and busy times and love the place. We are very seriously considering relocatiing there at least for a trial year. We dont want to see life down there through rose tinted glasses and so we would love to hear from any parents or young people about what life is really like year round in the area and indeed what school life is like at Fourlanesend School. You could email me direct or I will try looking on the website again for responses.
I also thought the web site was great.

hi to everyone at fourlanesend! hope your all having fun. the webs looking better than it used to! make the most of your school its tough at secondary-nah only joking! lol xxxx miss you all

this message board hasn't changed in a while, it brings back a lot of memories. I can see myself a few years from know looking at this message!
c ya later!

Hey fourlanesend! iv said it before and i will say it again! and im not the only people to agree! Can you put on some photos between 1994 and 2000!! Im coming to do a placement in fourlanesend next week so cant wait to see you!! xxx

Some of the happiest days of my life were spent in Kingsand & Cawsand, my sister Susie was at Fourlanesend late 50's. I recognise a lot of names on your site, particularly Terry Holland & David Rosson, but so many of these will be grandchildren of my old friends. A lovely site to visit, well done.

great website! well do to Dave and Sarah for updating the site,I really enjoy looking at it, SO KEEP IT UP!

A really good way for all of us to become more involved in the life of the school. Even the newsletter! We'll be coming back regularly.

Excellent site, its great to keep up to date with everything that is going on, Well done!

I am the I.T technician for Langley Junior and wish to compliment you on your website.
One of our children is leaving our school to go to your school. Her name is Hayleigh and we will miss her because she is a nice girl.

KEEP UP THE WORK MISS HARRIS AND MISS LRLAND

THIS SCHOOL ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This school has changed a lot since Mrs Selbie arrived. I mean in a nice way.

brilliant website so much to look at. Spent ages looking at old photos. Well done Dave and Sara keep it up.

Mrs Selbie is really nice and she is a great head teacher. I hope she has settled in ok.

This school is realy good now that Mrs Selbie has come. Mrs selbie has only been at our school for a few days and everyone likes her so much. well i do anyway

After Mr Kayes has left we have had a rough rollercoaster ride with two different headteachers. Now were up to scratch, we've got Mrs Selbie and we think she's a great headteacher, and we hope she will enjoy it here.

I think the school dinners are really good now and they are delicious

This school is really cool and Mrs Selbie is really nice

THANK YOU for the wonderful warm and friendly welcome I have received from everyone at Fourlanesend.

Visited on behalf of Veridor Credits ref an application for play equiptment.
Positive meeting with Sarah Riggs hopefully the application will be considered at our June meeting. Enjoyed the web site.

I hope you're all having a lovely Easter break and enjoying this fabulous weather. Please don't forget to sort out a few of your old books, videos, dvds, games, puzzles and compute games - NO toys, dolls, jumble - for the Fourlanesend School PTA fundraising stall at the Twinning Association Table Top Sale @ Woodlands, New Road on Easter Monday 17 April 10-12 am.

Take your stuff to whoever lives closest to you: Sarah Riggs, Jackie Robinson, Tracey Morcombe or me. Or if you can't manage that then give one of us a ring or post on here that you need someone to collect stuff from you and I'll be there like a flash!

And come and have a cup of tea and a bun and support us on the day.

Thank you.

It is a great website, and I really enjoy looking at it. SO KEEP IT UP!!!

It is a brave person indeed who has their picture taken next to a scarecrow! Well done Cindy. And the re-vamped site looks fan-doozy-tastic.

Well done to Dave and Sarah for updating this site; it's a wonderful resource. So, let's all use it!

I went to Fourlanesend school 1999-2003. Mrs Bright is the best teacher ever!!! I hope all the pupils in year 5 remember me from year 1and 2 ,I hope Miss Clarke remembers me.

Attended the school from approx 87' - '90. Now returned from Gambia, and living in Plymouth.

We should all have the pleasure of finding a website like this. I remember a lot of the guys in the picture. There I am standing next to Mr Easom, a wonderful man.
The school song then was "Forty Years On", it went as follows, "Forty years on when afar and asunder parted are those who are with us today". It' been 53 years since I was there.

I attended Fourlanesend from 1942 to 1951 when I entered the Dockyard, retiring 39 years later when we bought a pub in West Wales. I am now retired again.

i am leaving sone and i have really injoyed being here with mr.kayes and mrs.harris and i will miss the school, i think the school is really cool.

What an absolutely wonderful surprise. Just cruising the internet at 1 a.m. Mountain time in Edmonton Alberta. There I am standing next to that wonderfully patient Mr Easom in 1952. I used to get into lots of trouble then but who didn't. Punishment was the rule of the day for us boys, From the picture I recognize Edward Alpin, Derrick Smith, John Lethbridge, Goerge bus, Peter Arnold, David Elliot, Brian savage, Ken Newcombe, lots of familiar faces but can't remember all the names. Of course I don't remember any of the girls but what 10 year old boy remembers girls. I remember Mr Coon, he regularly had us sing our school song which went " Forty years on when affar and assunder. Parted are those who are with us today." A wonderful web site, there are thousands of us ex-Fourlanesenders out there. Thanks for finding my friends. I went on to Torpoint after the horrible eleven + exam broke us up. The only one I remember from there is Roy Selly who is now my brother in law.

I was at Fourlanesend school from 1985-1989 i think. I then moved to Germany with my mum and am now living in America. The website is great and brought back some memories. I am even on a couple of the pictures in the gallery. The picture of the teachers from 1985 brings back some memories, too. It was great to see all this. keep it up!! I will be coming back to check on the website again. xxx

To all pupils at Fourlanesend, make the most of it as the hard work starts at secondary! Enjoy every minute of it! Its great to see and read about the school I loved. My best moment was going to Weymouth! It was an amazing trip! Appreciate the teachers too. bibi x

Nice site..enjoyed looking at it...Would your Mr kayes be the same Mr Kayes that taught at Eastover Primary School in Bridgwater in the 1970's?

Fourlanesend is the best school eva.lots of good memories.if you want to send your kids anywhere look no further.

looking at at this website reminds me of all the good times i had at the school, but theres no pics of our year, hi to all the teachers and pupils lucy x x x

Lilly: i think that fourlanesend school is excellent and i would recormend it to anyone!!!!

Emma: So far, I have really enjoyed being part of this school and I hope it will stay this wonderful way!GO FOURLANESEND, YOU ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cool that the school has a site,its really good and the pictures are really nice..as is the school!
please could you put up some more pictures off the plays that have been performed and possibly some that are from 1993 onwards? thanks to miss summers for helping me get a good mark in my sats!! x

Nice to see our little school has a site!!! Brilliant to see pictures, but wheres the pictures from 1993 onwards?! Please could you display some pictures of us?? Hope the netball team is still going strong as when i left! I had a few good years at fourlanesend, but the best memory has to be when i fell down the stairs walking into the christmas play!! Makes me smile everytime! Those were the days, it's all hard coursework now :( Thanks to all the teachers who helped me in my years at Fourlanesend, without them, i would have for sure failed my sats. I managed to get an 7 in my English sats, and am aiming to become a barrister! Couldn't have done it without all the help from Mrs Summers, Mrs Kerslake, Mr Kays, Mrs Bright and Miss Clarke! Well enough of me babbling on, keep up the good work!! Tanya.

this school is the best if your thinking of sending your kids anywhere send them here

this is a great website sometimes i curl up on my bed and just dream of the good old days i love you all kiss kiss will b

hi everyone sorry about my spelling see you in a year jake

Great to see the site is kept up to date. My children can't lose newsletters on line!! School dates are an excellent idea. Keep up the good work

What a wonderful website! It really has brought back some great memories.
It even has some photos of me when I was really young and seeing the photos of the trip to Dartmoor was brilliant!
Good to see Mrs Summers looking so good but it would be nice to see a photo of Mr Kayes! {Somehow why do I think he'll ignore this bit.}
Keep up the good work!

NIce site, brings back memories from my time here in '98. Good to see the same staff are still there. Shame there aren't more recent photos, other then that, keep it up!

I was at Fourlanesend from 1948 to 1951 when my parents sent me away to boarding school (at the age of 7). I remember Miss Johnson and Mrs Eddy because they ran the whole infants' school between them - there was no talk about class sizes then and we must have numbered at least 60 little horrors!. I only remember Mr Coon (I always thought his name was Coomb) because we has to walk past his office to get to the infants' prefabs at the back. Unfotunatelly, my parents moved from Cawsand to Dartmouth in 1953 and we sort of lost touch with the village. My children have just got me one of these computer things and this is my first attempt to connect with anyone. I still have fond memories of Cawsand and hope one day to return - permanently.

What a great site! I see a lot of school websites and yours is lovely. Like the photos section

What a great site.I walked from Millbrook to your school in 1954,so I recall names like Mr Coon and Mr Easom.So glad to see the school functioning after all these years.Anyone who remembers me drop me a line.Do you have a photo of 1954? Best wishes Alan

As an ex governor,I found it most interesting.I must tell my son Darren to take a look ,as an ex pupil.Well done

A lot of hard work must have gone into creating this !!

I enyoyed looking at the website it was brilliant.

I enjoyed looking at the website.

I like fourlanesendschool because we make lots of fun things.

We stayed in Kingsand on holiday and often drove past the school, so it was lovely to see it from the inside. Excellent and very informative. Well done!

Thought I'd have a quick look at the Website for the school but my 'quick look' has turned into a 'long look'. Lots of really interesting and informative info.

Great site that is easy to navigate and full of useful info on the school......reminds me of the school that I attended many years ago.
Well done!!
Viv - Australia

Excellent website, it really shows what the school is all about without being too overloaded with information, easy to digest!
Adz - London

A very informative and useful site. A great way of keeping up to date with what is happening at fourlanesend I am especially impressed with the latest re-cycling programme that you have put in place.

Gosh, what a good site. Loads fast on my very ordinary bandwith. Logical and well thought out. Congratulations. The school looks great. Wish I was a kid again!!!
Kate - Colchester

Sal - Wiltshire

Hi Just to day good site but the photo on the front page does not fit its frame

Thanks for comment Andrew, this has been rectified now.

Well done for getting the web site up. I look forward to visiting it more and watching it grow.

Found your web site easily. It's a great idea.
Easy to follow, and very informative.
Any chance of putting school photos on it, which I could forward on to family (or would that cause a loss of revenue?)
I think you need to check the Autumn Half Term holiday dates. They don't look right to me!

Wonderful, informative, you have a wonderful website that you can be very proud of
