5 scariest places at Cottons

(Add yours to the list by clicking on Comments and we'll add them in to the main list later)

Nazu's scariest:
1. The green scummy tank that used to be near the auditorium (I plan to write a horror story about it one day!)
2. Miss Drayton's house (now gone and replaced by the auditorium)
3. The trunk room (now gone and replaced by the dining hall!)
4. Under the stage in the old hall (rumours were there was a secret passageway to boys school there but I'm not sure anyone had the guts to check!)
5. The tailor's room (mostly because the boys from next door would yell out at us!)

Sandra's scariest:
1. The toilets!! Need I say more...

Veena's scariest:
1. Behind the chapel
2. Behind Mrs. Marchand's room (there always would be cats wailing)
3. Inside the principal's quarters (some story about a couch that blocked a secret passage where lovers were said to have perished)
4. Near the tailor's (strange men calling out to you)
5. Under the old stage

2. The big tree in the middle of the quad
3. The canteen
4. The music room

Leena's favourites:
1. The Quad....just the ambience of the place
2. The big tree in the middle of the quad
3. The porch in front of the dining room (wonder if its still there)...it had steps that provided perfect audience seating for impromptu productions
4. The Music Room...oh yes!
5. The school field when it was transformed into the School Fete!!!

Veena's favourites:
1. The big banyan tree at the edge of the playground
2. The quad
3. The verandahs of the boarding school. Spent many a afternoon lounging on the benches
4. The Music room
5. The old auditorium when we did the Christmas plays. I remember one year we hung X'mas lights the whole length of the auditorium. We all dressed up as shepherds and had to sing by candlelight. Absolutely awesome!
