I Got The Cane At School

[image deleted]
Getting the cane at school was a Hazard of school life. Even some of the well-behaved girls got it on occasions. I remember a really nice, studious girl called Pat. She was quite a looker even in her school uniform and she attracted the attention of some workmen at the school. Unfortunately, she made some rather ribald remark to them which was overheard by a bossy prefect who reported her to the head. So although Pat never gotten into any trouble at school before she found herself bending over the desk for three or four strokes of the cane across the backside. She was right upset about it and we thought it was a bit harsh, but that's the way things were. And some of us were maybe a little secretly pleased that even a good girl wasn't exempt from getting the cane

I got it five times in six years. Given how strict our school was, I thought this was a pretty good record! My sister managed double that.

@JoBlak I lost count of the number of times I got the slipper at school. You're right about the sting.

@JoBlak I remember the sound as a sharp "crack!" rather than a thud. I don't recall anyone been sent to fetch a slipper for others to be whacked with, the intended recipient (or one of them if there were a group) would be sent. That was quite rare anyway, most teachers kept a slipper readily to hand.

@JoBlak My teachers didn't bother trying to identify ringleaders. Unless a ringleader was obvious, we all got the same.

@JoBlak It was rare a ringleader could be positively identified. The few times one was, he or she got a lot more than one extra whack but didn't alwys go last.
