Who remembers the days of watching films on projectors in the classroom?
Or ink wells, blackboards and haversacks? We are going back to school in South Tyneside in 1970 and we want you to join us.
We have scenes from Westoe, Jarrow, Horsley Hill and more.
Your homework for today is to see how many of these scenes you remember. Ten out of ten if you recognise the lot.

3. Dinnertime at Barnes Road
After 120 years, Barnes Road Junior School finally got a dining room, converted from the air raid shelter that stood in the yard. Does this bring back memories of 1970? Photo: Shields Gazette | SG
