Smith,I had 3 years at Goldings and the training and respect I was given did not come through being pampered,over the years we have lost many brothers and remember them with respect,our site shows both sides to live, remember tears and laughter should be shared together. Fact, nobody was ever forced to join the cadets,I joined by my own choice.In the real world not everything is a smile and joy.Please respect our site and it`s content.

Hello Mr Smith
I’m not a Golding's boy but I have attended Golding's Reunions for nearly 20 years and a nicer bunch of Old Boys and Staff I could ever wish to meet 30's 40's 50's and 60's.
We have a great day and some of us we also have a great weekend recalling and sharing. I'm proud to call these Old Boys my friends.
I don’t know what Golding's was intended to be, but the Golding's Old Boys I know are the nicest bullies or borstal boys you could ever wish to meet.
Bullying has always been a problem and it goes on in many schools including Public Schools,and at homes and work places today, and will always go on, I think that’s human nature picking on the weaker or maybe that’s not the word the different, that’s not to condone it just trying to explain, (the bully is the weaker person in the end.)
The people I know and their families, not all go on the website it’s not their thing, and the website isn’t really a chat site its more for information and getting and keeping in touch.
I hope you keep looking in we really appreciate your comments
I would be interested to know the Barnardo,s site you also visit and take a look

Now and again I pop onto the website only to find it's all about obituaries, birthdays and sadness being a member of another Barnardo site how refreshing it is to read their stories of Joy and true happiness within the Barnardo umbrella, sadly Goldings was as intended, originally a Borstal later run on similar lines with discipline the highest priority,the introduction of military type cadets served only to sort the wheat from the chaff with priority over the trade ability or an academic person, manifesting into nothing more than Bullying from the ranks, Goldings by today's standards ranks amongst the highest, looking forward to your comments.
