I Got The Cane In School 6 Of The Best

Most canings were administered in the headteachers' studies where we were either caned singly or with our fellow offenders.

Occassionally a large group would be caned. This was usually when teachers had made a concerted effort to catch smokers or there was a crackdown of lateness, uniform violations or some other petty rule.

In those cases, all those due to receive a caning would be assembled in the gym or the school hall. A few teachers would administer the canings. The number of teachers varied with the number of us to be caned.

We were all, boys and girls, caned in front of each other and our ages ranged from 11 to 18.

'six of the best'...haven't heard that since I was in high school.

I heard it a few times in school - often directed to me. Most canings were just 2 - 4 strokes though.
we used to stuff leather chamois in the back of our pants

@penguinswon: That wouldn't have worked for us. We had to lift our skirts to be caned over knickers so it would have been seen. The boys could have tried it but I don't know of any who did.
our teachers had special canes, though sometimes they used cricket bats or hockey sticks

Ordinary teachers used plimsolls, only headteachers used canes.
plimsolls?

@penguinswon: Commonly called "the slipper" when used to punish. Perhaps you know them as gym shoes. See Google images.
oh, you mean sneakers? we called them takkies
Sharon · F
@penguinswon: Modern sneakers are heavier than plimsolls
