As an ex pupil of this school and a school where all my children goto i find the decision of the people involved to close it unfair and unjust.The school has served the people of boldon for a long time and has always been highly respected along with all the teaching staff that work there.This decision to close it must be overturned so im making my feelings known by standing side by side with all the other parents,children and ex pupils boldon church of england school must not close

My favourite teacher is Mrs Kane, I love her and all the other teachers. I don't want to go anywhere else.

Cameron G. (23rd Sep 2007)

Why do they want to close the school its like a second home to me.

Samuel G. (23rd Sep 2007)

I love the school and everone in it why would they close down such a wonderful place.

Emily G. (23rd Sep 2007)

All 3 of my children attend Boldon C of E School, its such a family orientated school that has been running for over 60 years, the proposal of its closure is absolutely preposterous. I've always thought South Tyneside Council to be an excellent local Authority, but not anymore. They've got it so wrong this time, I've lost all faith in them.

Jayne G. (23rd Sep 2007)

I love Mrs Kane and my new friends. Why do they want to close my 'big school'?

Ellie G. (22nd Sep 2007)

My daughter has settled in so well as I believed she would when I chose the school. Not all decisions come down to money in life .. my childs well-being, education and social development is positively effected by Boldon C of E being a smaller school.

Julie G. (22nd Sep 2007)

Please do not disrupt the education of the youngsters of Boldon C of E Primary School. They deserve to be educated in the local primary which has served the community very well for many years. Continuity is vital in these early formative years.
