two days ago, I heard the staircase that many a Lawrence Tanner and ilk was dragged up, was going, to be demolished, along with the rest of the building. The last of the trilogy of schools I attended, with all their memories, all three reduced to rubble. But will this one, like one other, arise from the ashes and haunt yet a further generation.

I quite often pass my old primary school and everytime I look at it I think about all the injustices which took place within those walls.

It’s a wonder they are demolishging the place. The Kennett (Liberal) Government of Victoria some years back now closed a lot of schools and sold them to developers who turned them into Yuppie apartments.
