"I was pupil of st johns from 1975 to 1978"

A review of Springboig St Johns School by Patrickmcdaid/paddy written on Tuesday 3rd of December 2013

I remember mr bulb alright never liked that man at all he read all my private love letters from my girfriend out loud in front of all boys.i always kept running away i hated the place so depressing, im from clydebank, most other staff were fine to me, when i look back now i realy should not have been placed in any home by social work dept it done no good to me removing me from my family was cruel stupid and because i kept running away every week i eventualy got sent to borstal in polmont falkirk but that borstal did more for me in 9 months i was there iv never been in trouble since and im now 52.these days if you murder someone youl not be sent to list d school but cinemas instead. and by the way according to times and the way things were it was normal for staff to batter the ****t out of anyone, i liked mr dunn and mr myers who were kind staff, i recal a mr scanlon too, and the big governer with shaved baldy head, because i kept running away the police kept finding me but it was great spending precious time with my girfriend and family well worth it all and to confuse the police id dye my hair blond and many times they could catch me those were the days alright.
