9 retro photos from the Sunderland school which has its own egg jarping competition!

Have you heard about the Sunderland school which had a cracking good time in an egg jarping competition?

We have the proof with some archive photos from St Benet’s RC Primary School in Fulwell Road.

The Sunderland Echo archives came up with scenes from the 2011 and 2003 egg jarping championships at the school and we hope we can egg you on to share your memories.

There are plenty of other St Benet’s scenes in our archive round-up so join us on a journey back in time.
