Hi there, I was also a pupil at Finniston Primary from 1970-1977.
I loved reading the posts about Finniston thankyou.
I have fond memories of that time.
We would get the "Special Bus" from Manor Street, which took us along and sometimes up the Cliftonville Road or Oldpark, stopping to pick up pupils.
Mr Russel was the Head-Master, Mrs Elliott then took over, Mr Pollock was my p7 teacher, Mr Woods p6 Mrs Emery, Mrs Hewit
Funny looking back now it was all rather exciting having an Army Base in the school.
Think we had a mortar bomb once?
Getting stoned I mean bricked, as we passed the Chapel on the bus going up the Oldpark Road.
It hardened us lol Michelle xoxo.
