PENSIONERS will get a taste of life in a modern classroom, as part of celebrations to mark a school's 91st anniversary later this month.
On Thursday, October 16, Tanfield School, near Stanley, will welcome back pupils from more than 50 years ago.
It is part of a string of events organised by the Tanfield Association, a group of former students of the school who support it through fundraising.
Celebrations start on Friday, October 10, 1pm to 3pm, with a guided tour of the buildings.
The next day, a birthday party will take place in the school hall, from 7pm.
Tickets are £10 and are available from the school by calling (01207) 232881, or Tanfield Association secretary Fred Westwater, by calling (01207) 234548.
