I commenced grade prep in 1951 at Colac East Primary School. I'd lived in Colac for almost two years after my father was transferred to the local police station. We left early the following year. I have mixed memories of my time there, but mostly happy ones. The teacher we had was lovely, I think it was Miss Makem (or similar). Friends at school I remember were Lindsay Zooner, Rosemary True, Dawn Heppell and many whose faces I still recall, but not names. The headmaster was Mr Treadwell, with whom I had a tempestuous relationship. I'd do something wrong, he'd chastise me, I'd retaliate, etc etc etc. Looking back at the stunts I pulled, it's no wonder he seemed to always have me in his office for punishment. I was creative, even at that young age! :D PS: Sad to see the old bluetone school building has gone. :\
