    Did everyone have the words up on the hall wall through an OHP, with tiny blurry handwritten words?

    Nah, we got little hymns books. I remember the first song in the book was Morning has Broken (choon) and people always sang Glory Glory Alleilijiua as Glory Glory Man United :no:

    Yup. Though one day they went all hi-tec and some of them were typed!

    But not the ones that had call and response. Tylers Green hadn't invented colour printing...

    We didn't have a hall :(. Well, we kind of did, but it wasn't a proper one. My primary school only had about 30 people in it total, though. It was tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiny, but I loved it.

    I miss primary school, actually :(.

    Bloody hell, that's a bit posh.

    We had an OHP. And the headteacher, despite the fact that we sang hymns every assembly, still spent about 5 minutes at the beginning trying to put the transparency on so that it didn't read backwards, or upside down, or sometimes both! :rolleyes:

    Yup. We always used to fight over who was on OHP duty. Your job was to change the songs, but it meant you had a chair to sit on during Assembly. :thumb:

    We just had hymn books. Although if we didn't cover them and make them look pretty we'd get sent outside the staff room. Haha, those dreaded words.

    Man I miss those days.

    We had them, too. They were just printed booklets, though. Nothing fancy.

    And at my school, everyone had to sit cross legged on the floor if you were in Infants, and the Juniors got chairs :yes:.

    Man, those were the days...

    We never had digimon :chin:. Tamagochi's though :D. I had like 4 on the go at once at one point. And one of them used to wake me up at like 5am and I could never figure out how to turn that feature off...

    And the yo-yo craze :(. Pokemon wasn't til I came down south though, so late year 7 (March 2000).

    Ah, remember how grown up you felt, being 10/11 :D We had this amazing thing on a friday afternoon in year 6 called "Choice". It wasn't really much of a choice, but there were vaguely fun, non-school activities to participate in, and the rest of the school didn't get to do it, so we were all well chuffed :D

    Haha. I loveddddddd being in Year 6. I felt so old! We got to do our own Leaving Assembly as well :hyper:. All the little kids in Infants decided it was a good idea to colour in the armpits of my polo shirt with black marker when I was getting messages written on it, though. I had black armpits :grump:.

    Oh, Oh, Oh, How good is the lord. Oh, Oh, Oh, How good is the lord, Oh, Oh, Oh, How good is the lord. I never will forget what he has done for me.

    Does anyone remember that song/hymn and the actions that went with it? :D

    Ooo, tamagotchis! This is shameful, but I'm packing to move house and found my original tamigotchi the other day! Sadly lacking in battery power, but I thought I've got an antique on my hands here :thumb:

    I loved my leavers assembly.. we had a well funky song.. "Goodbye our school, we're going away, goodbye our school, we're leaving today. Goodbye to the teachers goodbye to you all. The playground the cloakroom the classroom the hall.. goodbye our school, we're going away.." etc. Ahhh. Annd I loved getting my shirt signed by 25435464 people.

    Talking of tamogochi's.. is it shameful to admit I got one for Christmas from my mate? :o

    Awwww....all those hymns brought back so many memories!!! :)

    Rise and shine, and that "and the creed and the colour and the name don't matter, were you there?" song....annnnd.....Autumn Days WAS the absolute best!! When I think of that, it just brings EVERYTHING back to me in one big rush...ahhh...happy days! :)

    Does anyone remember "When a Knight Won his Spurs" too??

    When a Knight won his spurs
    in the stories of old
    he was gentle and brave
    he was gallant and bold....

    ....then looots of verses in between, then....

    ....yet back into storyland giants have fled,
    and the knights are all gone
    and the dragons are dead.... (that bit always made me feel a bit sad...:crying: )
