A Visit to Auntie Gackie's Old School

This entry in the blog probably only has meaning for Linda and myself. This school which is only located about 200 m from Sture's house was where Auntie Gackie taught for about 30 years. Linda and I met Auntie Gackie when she visited from Sweden and took care of the kids while Sture and Lena were working in Sydney. She was also responsible for being the source of inside information about the availability for sale of Sture's house. We were all sad when she passed away 18 months ago.


Here is a view of the school from the front.
Here is a slightly more imposing view.
Close up the door isn't in such great, but it looks fine inside.
The weather vane on top gets a good workout in Sweden. It can be very windy here.
Here is a view of the school complex from an overlooking hill. You can't see it from this image, but there is a courtyard full of outdoor recreational equipment like canoes and bicycles.
