School in the 1950s was very hard for the children.
School is now a lot different. If you
don't know what school was like in the 1950s, then you should read this
report. This report will tell you what it was like, the stationery, the
rules and the games they had.
THE TEACHERS
The teachers were very mean.
Now in our days the teachers arent so grumpy. Is
guessing you wouldnt want to be there. The teachers could sometimes get
very angry, especially if you lived on a farm. This is because you
wouldnt be able to wash your hands because you wouldnt have any time.
The teachers also had to make sure you had clean hands.
STATIONERY
In the olden days they had to have different
things than we have now.
They had to have H.B. pencils, an ink dryer, a big, big
rubber, a bottler, books for each subject, a pencil case and the big
people had good ink. |
RULES
These rules are not the same as in New Zealand- but
there is only one thing thats the same, that is you start school at the
age of 5. Another thing is they had to have clean fingers and hands. They
did have drinking taps but they weren't allowed to play with them- the
drinking taps. You weren't allowed to argue with the teacher.
GAMES
The games were marbles, cricket, knuckle-bones,
netball, soccer, hide and seek, monopoly, board games, courts and card
games.
