And there is special reason to do it this week as the country celebrated Thank A Teacher Day.
Who was your favourite in the classrooms of South Tyneside and are they included in our retro feature?
We have scenes from Westoe Crown and St Bede’s RC Primary. We have teachers at schools in Hebburn and Westoe.
So why not take a look and see if you can recognise someone you know.
