Where did we all grow up....

[Nyala]

I was just thinking that there are so many of us here on this site who knows someone who knows someone else that it would be interesting to see where we all grew up.

My Dad was on the Rhodesia Railways, later National Railways of Zimbabwe, so we moved around a bit. We lived in Harare, Mutare, Gweru, and Dett as kids and as an adult I've lived in Mutare (again) and Bindura before we came to Oz. I never stayed long enough in one place to really become part of a school, I was always the new girl. I'll try remember all the schools I went to:

St Davids Infants School - Mutare
Queensdale Junior - Harare
Lochinvar Junior - Harare
Lundi park - Gweru
Cecil John Rhodes - Gewru
Eveline Girls High - Bulawayo
Mabelreign Girls High - Harare
Mutare Girls High - Mutare

Anyone else want to add their life history in a nutshell?

School wise I was never moved much...

Alfred Beit - Harare
Hallingbury - Harare
Queen Elizabeth - Harare
BIC College - Harare....

Houses however were another story, we moved so many times (all within Harare) I never knew if I was coming or going... Spent all my 21 years of Zim life in Harare and have to say was the best time of my life - nothing I have experienced here on "mud island" has even come close to comparing with the life I (we all) HAD! in Zims...
