They say your schooldays are the best days of your life.
Well, whether they were the best days of your life may be up for debate, but they were certainly in colour. But up until the 1990s, The Star was taking its pictures in black and white.
Now we have transformed 24 of the pictures of life in Sheffield’s schools, taken between 1960 and 1989, into colour using technology. They are sure to bring memories flooding back
We think it has breathed new life into the pictures, which show everyday life at the schools as well as exciting special events that youngsters there were taking part in.
You can see the pictures in the gallery below.
If you have pictures that you took of your schooldays, and would like them published by The Star in our retro columns, email them to us.
