On Monday, 31 October, marked 28 years since Laddsworth Primary School left the old premises at the site of the now Laddswood Lodge, and walked across the road into their brand new classrooms at our current school. It is amazing how far this school has come since its humble beginnings on the back verandah of Miss Daisy Ladds’ home.We are very privileged to have three of the teachers who taught at Laddsworth in 1988, still with us today. Mrs Sally Kelly, Mrs Cheryl Varty and Mrs Jenny Raubenheimer remember the excitement as well as the hard work in the big move to the new school premises.
