- Staff Letters -

The staff used the post to keep the Head informed about developments and problems at the reception site.  These letters reveal a degree of irritation and understandable difficulty arising from the integration of children from more than one school attempting to rub along in the same building.  There were obviously problems with accommodation, timetables and staffing.  The Heads attempted to resolve them and to pour oil on troubled water.  I have blanked out names because whilst I thought that it was interesting to read about what happened it wasn't appropriate to expose who it was who was being written about and who was writing.  Here are a series of letters written in January and February of 1941.















With all the shuffling back and forward there were practical problems and here is one letter that illustrates that.  I left Les Holding's name on it because it was far from controversial.
