My nan Joyce Avis born in 1928 went to Sunday school here from the age of two and went to service every Sunday until she was 14. At 14 she was asked if she wanted to be trained as a Sunday school teacher. She remembers a Dutch song they used to sing.
In a little Dutch kindergarten
By the little old Zuiderzee
There was started the sweetest romance
That anyone could see
She was dimpled and round and rosy
There was mischief within his eyes
But the teacher was never nosey
So the teacher never got wise
They would share their sweets
Each day in the sweetest way
That was twenty years ago
And they do the same today
Now they’re married and they’re so happy
And they’re sending their children three
To that little Dutch kindergarten
Down by the Zuiderzee
