With the subject of King Henry VIII attracting so much interest, 
what about Bablake. Surely there are Bablake pupils with their memories. For me, the odd thing about Bablake was the pupils wearing a grey three piece suit & attending school on a Saturday morning instead of Thursday afternoon. Come on Bablake, let's hear your memories, please. 
Hello Phil. When I was at Bablake School in late 40s early 50s Thursday afternoon was for School Sports activities at the school playing fields some further distance up Coundon Road and Thursday afternoon also the time when you served, in school, your detention penalty (report card entries etc.) whilst others played games. Saturday mornings were to replace education time lost enjoying yourselves on Thursday. what about Bablake. Surely there are Bablake pupils with their memories.
