Talk:Liverpool Collegiate School

Untitled
I was there '68/'72. Stupidly only did 4 years but looking back it was the best 4 years of my life. I was in the C.C.F. Can't imagine now in this day and age that why an adult teacher would want to teach a twelve year old boy how to shoot a Browning 9 mill automatic hand gun. But that did happen in them days I should know because I did it !!! (as the pupil that is) I did the lot. The operas, the Isle of Mann the weekends away with the C.C.F firing all them wepps (303 was defo the best). All good stuff. Have'nt done too well for meself but I get by and I'm enjoying life as best as can and I think that going to the school without doubt put me on the right track.

Merge
I suggest that Liverpool Collegiate Institution should be merged into this article as a history section. - PKM (talk) 19:48, 23 November 2014 (UTC)

"Soccer"
The section headed "Thereafter" mentions that the Old Boys association runs "soccer" teams. Since the article isn't about anywhere in North America, shouldn't it state "association football", or possibly even just "football"? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pithecanthropus4152 (talk • contribs) 20:30, 24 January 2015 (UTC)

It's fine to use the word "soccer" in English English, as well as American English. More to the point, soccer was the preferred description at the Liverpool Collegiate where the bias was firmly toward Rugby Football rather than Association Football which was called soccer by school staff, at least in the 1960s when I attended. 86.153.100.77 (talk) 20:29, 10 March 2015 (UTC)

motto
Translate: As formerly, upholders of cleverness and virtue. Since there is no verb, I imagine it to mean that all pupils of the school continued the tradition of upholding these two qualities.

I was at SFX and we used to climb into the Colloegiate yard on Sunday to play football.Pamour (talk) 15:34, 23 December 2017 (UTC)
