Knock School 1952
SS # 15 Knock Knock School was noted for particularly Good Christmas Concerts. The children of the school would prepare songs, drills, recitations and dialogues. The young people of the community no longer in school would also prepare plays and dialogues for the concert. As more and more people became involved, the concerts got longer and longer. There would even be speeches by people running for council. One concert ran so late it was after midnight before Santa arrived for the Children! Frank Cowan
