Saturday's Header from 1985-6

Posted by Norman Dunn on November 26, 2022, 10:13:40

I have quite a few photos taken at the time when the 100 yr old Newtown School closed and the children were moved to Bedewell (previously Clegwell).
Names wanted for these children from 37 years ago please.On the back wall there are some children's names and one is a Dunn but no relation.

I left Hebburn in 1974 when the Newtown School was still standing and only returned for a short visit in 2017, but when I attended Newtown 1961-1967 there was a School Uniform of Black and Silver...........what happened ??

As far as the council was concerned the school was past it's sell by date and the old Clegwell site was sitting empty. When you look at what the council has done in recent years I am surprised Clegwell didn't come down to be replaced with housing.
