I was thoroughly embarrassed by the whole experience but relieved he didn’t decide to take our pants down and spank us on the bare on this occasion. After he had finished told the class that this “public display” should be a warning to all of them of what would happen if anyone else decided to be rude in assembly. He then put each one of us into a different corner with our hands on our heads where we had to stay until the mid morning break. I definitely learnt my lesson and I never talked in assembly again and although it wasn’t the last time I was spanked at school it was the only time I was spanked in front of the class. Other girls in the class also received spankings in class over the following year but maybe I can talk about one of those next time. The whole spanking incident only lasted about ten minutes in total for all three of us to go over his knee but at the time it seemed to go on forever.
