Re: Tennal School
hi bob
I have just been reading your thread on tennal;
and i have seen the dates you say you was there during the fiftes ;
being you asked if any body whom was there during that period , do you recall a lad whom was a perament
obsconda over the wall with his mates , his nick name was goldie; a blond hair lad
and he and his mates was for ever going over the wall for various reasons ,
and i think you would really know what i meant by dad
you said the staff was half decent and nothink went on . well it must have been quitely kept
before all this scandal of abuse in the homes was and had been carrying on since the year dot.
and because of the stigma of these homes in the way back years
like they called them approve schools .borstal s and hard labour detention centres and prisons
the society and the legal system did not to know and they thought they should not have the right to complain
even the kids parents was to embarres to complain for the thought of letting there neibours are in jail or locked up for theiving in these institutes so they never went to complain how there kids was treated
if joe public heard about it they would have said yes they deserve it flogg them with the cat
so these people whom was to be there carers got away with abusing them
but i have information from way back in the early fifties from such kids whom was interd at tennal
during that period you speak of at that actual time speaking to me in the year of fifty five on wards
when these kids was being abused, but thank god all those tyrants at tennal have all been found and dealt with afew years back and have been punished
on the subject of the lad i called goldie he obsconded and was eventualy transfered to a school in south wales
where he was a happy lad loved to play foot ball and done well ;[i will not reveal is true surname]
but is nick name was goldie ; he his happily marrid and with childremn of his own now
thet ain,t no trouble . but just before i will stop .i will tell you years after in the seventies the slime crept into
the south wales home where goldie went , goldie got out in the sixtys
and one lad there whom was new there was abuse by a member of staff and he was brave to tell his parents about it and through him society and the law became very knowledgeable to the wide scale of such abuse to these kids ,you was lucky .it was only a select few , but through out the country it was on a wide scale
hence the operation flight as it was called then--at las it no longer in operation
thanks for putting your thread on
