Cove Junior School - Bed Time Story
Gollywogs
Paul Lamont recollects…
“Michael Hobby had a big drum (with school badge) and his own hand-made (by his mother) guard’s uniform and the teachers made up a play about the boy and girl in dressing gowns dreaming that their toys came to life. Hence the Moon and two Stars with an Owl before the Cock crowed. Gabrielle Maxwell-Hyde was the Sandman (left of girl in dressing gown), Jean Smith (right of boy in dressing gown) and Anne Dukes (right of girl in dressing gown) representing the Night. The girl Star behind the drum may be Valerie Walden who later went to A.C.H.S. Colin Roberts and I (Paul Lamont in striped trousers) were the Gollywogs.”
