Nine pictures of Sunderland little ones when they were aged nine and ten at Wearside schools
Didn’t you just love lessons in Year 5 classrooms across Sunderland in the past.
You had loads of fun at Hastings Hill, Bexhill and Town End Farm Academies if these scenes are anything to go by.
You dressed as First World War children in 2013 and made your own Chinese New Year decorations at West Rainton Primary in 2013.
There’s loads more besides but why not have a look for yourself.
