Thankyou, Blankenhagen School (closed 2016) for the pictures above 

POSTED!
This sculpture was created by the children of Ark primary School (JHQ), in 2013 and has been on permanent display at the National Memorial Arboretum, Staffordshire, since 2016.  Since November 2017 it has sported an explanatory sign and a 'QR' code' linking to a simple web-page.  

Your new webmaster is trying to figure out how to create a hot-link.  Meanwhile, here is the URL: ​https://postedark.wordpress.com/
 See our 'noticeboard' page for details of planned dedication on 8th April, 2018

Much of the information on this web-site and in the Association's Newsletters comes from the attics/albums of ex-teachers' own memorabilia which they have kindly donated. This history of our schools eventually makes its way into our archives held at the IoE at University College London.

Below are two examples of such donations, from Marian Andrews (Nee Riley) of her colleagues at Marlborough First School, Osnabruck; 1981 - 1884.

Summer 2015 saw the closures of the schools in Hohne/Fallingbostel Garrisons.

A significant quantity of memorabilia, documents and photographs were collected and sent to the Association's

archivist. Much of this has now been sorted, annotated, catalogued and deposited in the Association's archives at the

Institute of Education, University College London.

The final box of material from Gloucester School, Hohne was deposited on in November 2015.

Some examples are included on our Archives page.
