So how about a look back at 15 of the great retro photos that we found of the school in the Sunderland Echo archives.
We have got scenes from World Book Day and a visit from SAFC mascot Samson.
And we have got two poignant reminders of the times when Southwick favourites retired.
So join us on a look back at Southwick Primary. And once you have, why not share your own memories.
