I to went to Craylands School but slightly earlier. I was there from 1956 to 1961. I believe that my first year there was also E.E. Haynes first year as Head Master. I remember that there were "mini riots" in the playground which Mr Haynes sorted out by just standing against the building wall, with some of the other staff, and just letting it run its course. That didn't last long and soon everything calmed down and returned to normal. Didn't have many of them because there was "reaction" on the part of the staff.
