Mr Dawkins came to our school

On Tuesday the 5th of August Mr. Dawkins came to speak to the middle school about the past at MLPS. Mr. Dawkins was a senior teacher and first started at MLPS in 1975.

The children where very scared of the teachers because they would strap the children for dirty nails or being naughty or even if they got a spelling mistake.

Under the ground there was a little house in case there was a war in New Zealand the children would go down to the house and hide.

If the children did one mistake they would get one strap, if they made two mistakes they would get two straps if they made three mistakes or more they’d get three straps.

Great work Victoria and Noor N, one comment though, i think Mr Dawkins was probably tricking you when he said that the children got the strap for getting spelling mistakes.
Victoria's mum remembers having Mr Dawkins as a teacher when she was your age and nothing like that happened when she was at Marshall Laing.
