English: "The Academy" primary school, Derry Road Strabane. Basher, Bomber and Miss Adams come to mind when I look at this photo. I attended here in 1957 and am most thankful for that. Basher was an inspired teacher and Bomber was Mr Stirling the headmaster, a credit to the teaching profession. He could handle the cane and I have only one memory of perhaps one miscarriage of justice. He called a boy to "come here" for punishment who had the same surname as myself. My mind was elsewhere at the time and although I was not the intended victim he told me that I would not have "come here" if I was innocent so his only course of action was to cane both of us. I have only gratitude for Mr Stirling and forgive him entirely.
