Hello!
My name is Sarah Elliott I used to go to Mountbatten primary school. Its was my first ever school I left in year 2. My dad was posted by the army to Nottinghamshire. I now live in Newcastle Upon Tyne, England. When I left my teachers name was Mrs. Donnett.

I wish I could come back to see everyone, I am now in year 6 and in 5 days I leave primary school.

I don't remember many people. I remember,
Carl Collins, Chloe leigh-bland and Keither Buck.

I was at mountbatten school in the early 90's. The fire in1992 is still very clear to me. But the school does bring back so many happy memories for me, including the beach parties we had on the school field and the school dinners were fab. Most people moan about their years at school but i always say i enjoyed my time at primary school and thats because i attended mountbatten.

From Jocelynxx

Went to this school for a couple of terms in 1958 before going on to boarding schools in Plon and Hamm. My teacher was Miss Tochrane - lovely lady! I lived in Klein Hehlen in Bachstrasse. If you go to Multimap site and type in Witte Strasse it gives an excellent aerial view of the school. Would love to get in touch with anyone who was there between 1958 and 1961.

My father was with the Gordon Highlanders and we were stationed in Celle in 1956 for 3 years. I absolutely loved this school, and have very many happy memories of my time there.

Hi there its me again,In an previous message i wrote that the flats we lived in at the Am Kriegensteg were gone.
But i was mistaken they are still well inplace.
If you have Google earth you can see the flats.But also Collingwood school(Mountbatten).
And the Taunten barracks(94 Loc Regiment Now the Neues ratthaus celle)
i also remember my last teacher Mr Ottley
i will be going to celle in the upcomming summer,and hope to pay a visit to my old school.
BTW its only a 4 hour drive from where i live here in Holland....Cyaaaaaa

hi

Wow, glad i have found a peice of missing jigsaw. When we first came to Germany in 76, We lived at Wathlingen, near the salt mine, we attended what use to be called Collingwood School then. My father was stationed at the Trenchard Barracks, then we moved to the all new family quarters, just about half a mile from the barracks. i am sure you know where i mean. We use to go to Collingwood, in an old, green Army bus, with a crunchy gearbox, lol. Whilst most of the other kids arrived in big, white fancy coaches. I even remember the sports day of 76, in the school field. Twas a boiling hot summer then. And i remember having to go see Mr. Walters (The headmaster) For not playing nice in the wendy house. lol. I was soooo scared, he was a fearsom headmaster, as you can well imagine. I use to have a crush on a lass called Tracey Brikkate, with her long blonde hair, and big blue eyes. It was all those years ago now, and still remember her. Back in Bradford now, and father is working as a security gaurd, in Blackpool. He was known as Basher Briggs, at the time. For why, i will never know. That is all for now. Take care everybody. Hady x

Hi everyone I used to go to school at Mountbatten a long time ago when my dad was posted in Celle. It would have been around 1989-1991 although I came home to England when my dad went off to Desert Storm. I have some very fun memories of my time there and was just showing my husband and look forward to showing my children when they grow up where exactly their mummy went to school.

I am now living in America, although not military, enjoying the sun and views of Idaho. Good luck to everyone and every child in the British Army, I am and will always be a good old Army Brat =)

Hi everyone. I used to go to Mountbatten School. I was there from Reception to Year 1. My dad, Mr Jim Tague, was a teacher there.

If I remember correctly my Reception teacher was Mrs Case and my Year 1 teacher was Miss Vir Singh. I was also there when the school caught fire! The middle part of the school was blocked off with temporary walls that were painted with Biff and Chip images.

hi everyone i use to go to tihis school i was in reception with scott and erin and my sister jasmine my mum was a dinner lady she was called mrs mortimer and the haed teacher mr summers i have been told by someone that has just come out of the school that he is still there and that is chelsea trevor she has come to enland and she came to my school and my sisirt chez went to this school and it was so good i miss it so so so much hope it is still good love frome jocelynxxxxxxxxxxxx

hiya everyone I used to go to this school this is a fab school!!!!!!!!!!!

I was at mountbatten from reception to year 4 when i left, in 1999,i think! i can't belive Bob is still the headteacher!!..Living in celle gave me the best childhood i could have asked for, and i miss it so much =(

I was at Mountbutton for 6 month,while my dad was in N-Ireland.I stayed in Celle with my mum,but we were living in Osnabrück really.I remember I was in the X-mas play(Celle) and I had a mate he was American his Parents were civillians.That all was in 1992

How my god just been reading through some of the emails especially one from Tracey woodword god memories from the past i was one of those four how did the dance in assembly. Fondly remember Amanda mullen etc also was really good friends with Sarah Bull. Remember one of the school plays when we had to sing I'm forever blowing bubbles. Some really good memories!! Get in touch if you have my email address

God really cant believe ive found this site thought about this school for years. I went to this school for about 2 years in 1988. Lost touch with loads of good friends i had back then.
Hope everyone is great

omg! i used 2 love this scool it aint changed 1 bit xxx

Cheryl Furness- i think i remember you!!! I'll have to consult the teatowel I have that we made with all our drawings and names on it in year 3 :D

omg i can't believe this is where i used to go to school! I attended this school in 1997/8 and i was in year 3. I remember Mrs. Stevens and Mr. Sommer, as well as Milly, Charlotte, Cheryl and Karl. The pictures bring back so many happy memories- it will always be my favourite school and I wish i still lived in Germany :( it's such lovely country... lol i remember the blue spelling certificates, Mr Sommer making a joke about strawberry-flavoured envelopes cos he said they tasted gross, the football team and Celle long distance run thing. I still have all my jotters and work and MRS BELLAMY-BROWN'S NOVEL!!!

I hope this is of interest to someone but I attended this school in 1954-56. My Dad was in the RAF and we lived first in a families hostel and I had to travel in by bus but then in married quarters where I could walk to school. I remember two lady teachers in particular Miss Malzer and Miss Leach and a male teacher who I think was Mr Daniels??
I really enjoyed my time at this school, and the things that particularly stick in the memory are our nature classes, because we were alongside the forested area and were interested in the different trees etc. Music was also a favourite and I well remember dancing classes ( folk dancing ) and singing lessons.As you will gather my memories are no doubt much different from the pupils nowadays, but thought you might be interested to hear from a now 'golden oldie', still holding fond memories of this school and my fellow pupils. I believe I still have a class photo and can name quite a few still.

XxSarah RaynardxX

I attended Mountbatten from 1996-1998. I spent some of the best years of my life there and have fond memories, in particular of of Mr Summers, Mr Bielby and Mr Evans! I am now due to start mental health nursing, and feel that I should pay thanks to this school for educating me and giving me the best opportunities available! If only I could turn back time, I wouldn't change a thing. Some may also remember that my mother Sue worked at the school, and also reflects very highly on her time at Mountbatten. Best wishes to all staff and pupils at the school, love from Anthony : )

I taught at Collingwood / Mountbatten between January 1983 and December 1988. They were fantastic years! I really enjoyed teaching in Celle :-)
I went back to the school in April 2008 to have a look around. The pond is still there! Any of you remember helping me dig it out? That was fun ~ really!
I am still teaching, in Folkestone (Kent), and have very fond memories of my time in Celle.
You all take care!

Wow, can't believe theres a website for the school. Hi everyone, I'm in England, Bury now, just finished College (got a few exams to get passed first though) and I'm hoping to go to Edge Hill university.

hi Mountbatten school

i started at this school from the first year and finished this school miss u all

Hi every one, i went to Mountbatten twice, well the first time it was Collingwood! sadly i can not remember when that was, but i did get a Gold Star Award while i was at Collingwood, i think i went to Mountbatten back in 1990 only for a year as i went off to Gloucester School after, but i remember meeting Mr Summers for the first time, and chatting with him, i showed him my Collingwood GoldStar Award and he was really interested in it, a top guy, glad to see you are still there Sir, not sure if you remember but i am sure your wife is/was a teacher and i think she may have taught me else where possibly Heide School in Hohne! I do miss my school days, going to a Services School is the best experience in the world! Well for all those who were there in 1990 i was in my final year and sadly i forget my teachers name, but the class room was upstairs and at the far end of the second floor. If you remember me feel free to mail me gerryparsons79@hotmail.com Thanks all! Glad the old place is still going and i was shocked to read about the fire too back in 1992!

i not sure my comment worked so ill add another one anyways

Hi i attended Collingwood from 1979-1983 had a great time and i can honestly say i have very fond memories of both the school and Celle. I lived at 19/1 Amkriegersteg (not sure of the spelling i was very young at the time). Hi to any body who went to this amazing school and especially to Miss Jeffries even if you arnt there anymore you where a great teacher and i know i was a pain. Mr Holland was the head back then and im glad to see its most recent pupils still have great things to say about the school. I have class pics from my time if anybody wants them just email me, hope the school does well in the future, David

Hi All,

Collingwood School was my first primary school I attended back in 1982, i was there approximately 4 years when my Father was based at Hohne Barracks as part of the Royal Army Medical Corps.

I clearly remember my first day at school, I was introduced to my teacher Mrs Heron and was absolutely petrified when she held out her hand as it was just a stump!

But she turned out to be one of the loveliest teachers I ever had and she taught me how to tie shoelaces and do a plait with those hands!!

I then had Mrs Bell followed by Mrs Horner and Mr Spencer was our Headteacher his son Philip was in my class.

I remember the little green cards that we had for the bookshop upstairs , we used to collect tokens with owls on to be able to get free books.

I also remember when glass bottles of milk ceased to be issued and were replaced by cartons of orange, those cartons used to come with 4 disney stickers and those pupils who had been best behaved that day recieved them.

Our teachers also used to write our names in black marker onto the skins of our fruit!!

I remember school dinners being the best! chicken supreme and braised beef with red pickled cabbage being my favourites.

We used to have painted egg competitions at Easter which were always displayed at the entrance of the dining room.

I also remember when the school was renamed Mountbatten Primary, and when the wooden activity play area was built in the playground.

The big fields at the back was where I spent time playing with my friends, the woodland area around the edges were the best :)

And at home time the big green or white buses would take us home!

One year we did a play at Christmas which was a story of Babouska, and one particular assembley the Headteacher prior to Mr Spencer (I cannot remember his name) told a story of a Tree he said that we would have to remember the tree's name and I do to this day, it was the Ewongalema Tree!!

wow, who'd have thought that mountbatten still existed! i was a pupil there between 1989-1993, shared a class with the likes of adam bond, keiron brown and clint bredin, many of these people can be found on facebook if people want to get in touch. i still remember the fire that ruined the school and we had to go to school in the army barracks- that was mad! Mr Summers i cant believe you are still there, my teachers were Mr Tague, Mr Evans and Mrs Masterson to name a few!

Hi
I came across this site through a page on facebook.
I attended Mountbatten back in the 80's for 5 years while my Dad was stationed in Celle.I was at Callingwood when Grenville joined us to make Mountbatten.I have so many great memories of this school.My favourite teacher of all time was Mrs.Heron,but have great memories of Mr.Rivers,Mr Mason,Mrs Woodfine and Mr and Mrs Spencer to name a few.
I hope the school dinners are still as good as they were back when I went there,I looked forward to lunch everyday :)
I pray that my children will go to a school as good as this one was,it was by far the best I went to

Calli :)

Hey,
My names Katrina De-Lara and I used to go to Mountbatten school when I was younger. I left the school in 1996 because my dad was in the Army and we were posted to Northampton. I was in Miss Beckett's class. My older sister Samantha used to go to the school for several years aswell. I am now nearly 17 and my sister is 22! I am doing research on Celle for my German A level course!! Is funny to think that the school is still there after all this time!!
One day I hope to go back and visit Celle!!
Don't know if anyone remembers me?
x x

Hello i can't beleve that Mr Summers is still the head teacher!
i attented the school in 1997 - 2001. Mount battern was the best school i ever went to and i have so many good memorys of it, i would love to go back sometime!

Hey,
My names Katrina De-Lara and I went to Mountbatten school from 1995-1996 because my dad was in the army. I was in Miss Beckett's class. My older sister Samantha also went for several years! Although i was only there for a short time, i loved it!! Was a brilliant school!
I'm nearly 17 now and my sister is 22!! I can't believe that Mr Summers is still the headteacher!!
I'm now living in Northampton.
I'm doing about Celle in my German A level course and that's how i found the website, was amazed that the school was still there!!
I hope to come back and visit Celle sometime in the future.
Mountbatten school was the best!!
Don't know if anyone remembers me?!

hello to all. i was a pupil at mountbatten and left around 97-98 i think. i went up to gloucester school in hohne. i can not believe mr summers is still there. is mr evans(i think) or mr bilby still there(he was the best). i had a fab time at that school and wpuld love to be able to send my kids there. i am currently stationed in hameln with my husband and would love to hear back from anyone who remembers me.

Hi there, I attended Mountbatten from 1997 to 2000, I will always remember Mr Livingston being the best teacher I have ever had. One memory that will stay with me is getting a Certificate for feeding the birds that visited the school area - I still have it along with all my others! I'm in 6th form now at St Aidan's in Carlisle and having attended 8 schools; Mountbatten was the best. I have remained in touch with one friend - Faye Heslop and recently found Mark Rooke. I truly enjoyed my time at Mountbatten, more so than Montgomery, Heide or any others I have atteneded. I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their support and guidance during the time I attended. Mountbatten is a brilliant school and I would think my old friends agree whole heartedly with me. Many Thanks - Laura Cooke.

hello i used to come to mountbatten they were good times =-]

WE LOVE MOUNBATTEN AND WE LOVE YOUR PICTURE MR SUMMERS!!! FROM AIMEE AND EMMA PASSMORE XXX

Hi there, I went to this school 1990-93 ish can't remember exact dates, gonna dig out some old papers and check, just stumbled across the site by mistake.
Just thought I'd pop on and see if could find anyone I knew, now living in Yorkshire(used to visit yorks in the school hols to visit my gran) I also beleive I have a photo or two somewhere with names of old class mates so may post them if I find it, see if can contact anyone, it's so easy to lose touch the perils of being forces offspring I guess, although I have great memories of all the places we vistited, but mainly this school due to it being the longest posting we ever had of 4.5 years

hello everyone we enjoy our new school but we really miss mountbatten. i miss you mrs porter and miss burton. our new headmaster is our uncle but we miss you as well mr summers. bye for now.

hello everyone we enjoy our new school but we really miss mountbatten. i miss you mrs porter and miss burton. our new headmaster is our uncle but we miss you as well mr summers. bye for now.

I attended Mountbatten through years 1 and 2 when my father was in the Army, I was in Miss Meacham's class. My sister Lucy was in a KS2 class and our mum Margaret was a substitute teacher at Mountbatten too. We left about 2 months after the fire! I remember the big school play all the KS1 years participated in that was based on Sleeping Beauty, one class did a dance to Michael Jackson's 'Bad', the youngest kids dressed up as storks, my class dressed up as the thorns outside Sleeping Beauty's castle. I've still got it on tape! If anyone remembers me, my mum or my sister feel free to email me, sabbaroo@hotmail.com.

I wonder if anyone has any memories of Collingwood School? I was there from 1976 until my dad left 94 Loc. Reg. and we moved to UK in 1980. I have some vague memories of the school and the white coaches and green buses that used to take us from home in Alten Celle to the school and back. Great to see the school is still going strong under its new name!

Hello every1. I can remember this school like i was there yesturday. I left the school in 1989 just before xmas. I too still have certificates with Mr Summers signature on it.

Hi Bob, and Jan
Stuck infront of the computer again, I still hate the things! No idea what suddenly made me look for Mountbatten..., but, here I am. All these years on I still often think of the many happy times I had during my 5 years with you all - lots of lovely memories. Hope the new term has begun well, it's always as if the holiday never happened isn't it? Love the website, the School looks GREAT!! - we're just getting ours going - I have a fab T.A. who thankfully is doing our bit for KS1.
Have a lovely Spring Term!!

Hello,
I used to attend Mountbatten when it was Collingwood, I was there when we merged with Grenville school. My headteacher was Mr Spencer (an amazing man), I was taught by Mr Mason, Mrs Spencer, Mrs Woodfine-to name a few!!! I loved the school very much and have fantastic memories of the school, teachers and pupils!!
Hope everyone at the school is enjoying their time there as much as i did.
Lisa Childs!

Hey, i went here for two weeks about 14 years ago i was 5 and it was fantastic!

Hello there,
I attended Collingwood and was there at the amalgamation-when the school was renamed Mountbatten!! Our headmaster was Mr Spencer, I was there for several years and had Mr Mason and Mrs Spencer as teachers. Also some others but I cant remember names right now.!!! I have children of my own and am very excited to show them this website!!
Regards to you all,
Lisa Childs

All four of us went to this school, it was the best school we've been to.Can't believe Mr summers is still there, he was the coolest head teacher! We can all remember the fire i guess it's something you don't forget. Best times have to be the beach partys in the playing feild, hope they still go on. We all still treasure our gold star awards, something else we'll never forget. thanx for the memories!

Both my children, Sarah-Jane and Timothy attended your school and enjoyed it greatly. Mrs Donat was a dear friend and I pray our best wishes can be forwarded to her.
