Quote: Nottingham Rover "Bizarre question perhaps but as I left hull in 1983 my memory isn't what it was. Is the old decrepit school at the back of the east stand Greatfield HS? Every week it drives me barmy trying to remember....!'"


It was definiteley called Greatfield high school in the 1970's and 1980's.
A lot of high schools in Hull changed their names in later years so it may well have become Isaac Newton at some point.

Quote: hull2524 "Went there 1969 to 72 there was 3 schools all together. Issac Newton. Elizabethan and Shakespeare which combined to make greatfield high school. Great schools and great times'"


No school there when I was a kid and played in the fields of the two farms that were there. At junior school( old Flinton Grove) my best mate lived in the house at the gates of Eastern Cemetery and I ran across open fields to play from where I lived in Marfleet Lane. Finally left the area in 1966 but no school built as I recall.

Newton hall was a grammer school, Elizabethan Hall was a secondary modern school and Shakespeare hall came along later.

I played for Villa Place against both St Richards and Shakespeare. this was around 1970 remember beating Shakespeare easily enough but St Richards with Mike Smith were almost unstoppable we only beat them once, in a semi final and got to play at the Boulevard were we got beat by St John Fisher.
also remember 7s rugby there.
happy days.

I went to Shakespeare and left a year early as that was when Juniors got done away with. I loved it there but we didnt actually do a lot of Rugby. Our PE teacher was called Mr Goulding and he was a rugby lover but for some reason we only tended to play football if it was dry or indoors was indoor hockey (Unihoc?) in bare feet. Our form tutor and Science teacher was a loveable loono Mr Holmes, affectionately called Ratman.

I didn't go to Greatfield though, for my sins I ended up at David Lister.....
