At school aged 7 I pushed the class bully into the school pond, and legged it into the PE shed, pretended to tidy the hula hoops away, and got away with it!
In my teens I became good friends with her, and eventually confessed, she thought it was hillarious.
This is DS1s 2nd week at school, and Im dreading what he's going to get up to !

I bit my friend

She used to follow me everywhere, and I had (and still have) a horrible temper - one day I had enough, and turned round and bit her...

I still remember to this day "Kittens bite... Little girls do not bite."

Pinned someone who had been tormenting me for weeks to the wall by a chair, I only dropped it when he went blue

I tapped another child over the head with the handles of my skipping rope (remember the heavy old-fashioned ones with ball bearings?), and, when sent to the Headmaster for punishment offered to tap him on the head too, to show how lightly I'd done it!

I was quite serious, but he saw it as cheek for some reason.

I once snipped a hole in the front of my school shirt just to see what noise the scissors would make.

And in the last year of primary school three of us convinced ourselves we were allowed to spend all our playtimes in the music room, playing the pianos and percussion instruments, dancing etc. We got away with it for nearly two weeks before the teachers caught on.

PC!

Radley - you would have got on well with me in college - I had my "friend" cowering in the corner of a nightclub toilets whilst I thumped her lots for kissing my ex

When I was 11 Had a fight in the playground with a girl, in the end we were just pulling handfulls of each other hair out till some other girl separated us.
When I was 8 I saw a packet of cigarettes on the path outside the school grounds so jumped the fence to grab them and later smoked them in the bushes then was vilontly sick at home but managed to convince gran who was looking after us that it must be a tummy bug!

Elibean · 12/09/2006 16:29

Organized a rebellion on the hockey coach (used to take us to wind swept forsaken field every week) after the sports teacher was a bit rough with my pal about not tying her hair back. On the count of three, we all (well, most of us) put shower caps on our heads. The teacher was Not Amused...
dd just started nursery yesterday, wonder what I'm in for....

MerlinsBeard · 12/09/2006 16:31

i was quite tame at primary but a right bitch at high school, the things that stick out the most are

Threw a stool at a teacher
HIt a (different) teacher on the head with a metre stick
I was the class bully
funny how having children changes you isn;t it?

Wisp · 12/09/2006 16:31

Brilliant stories

You were the bully MoM???

VoluptuaGoodshag · 12/09/2006 16:35

Stole a Dolphin keyring and a set of beads from a girl in the classroom coz I was jealous of all the attention she was getting. Racked with guilt I returned them about 3 years later, hiding them in her desk - I apologise profusely and still feel bad about it today

In high school, a mate and i pretended we had a media studies assignment to do and we borrowed a video camera from the media room (we didn't even study media!), excused ourselves from our other classes and spent the morning at the boys school next door filming the lessons of the boys we fancied!

And we got away with it...
and I still have the tape

MerlinsBeard · 12/09/2006 16:36

i wasn't just the class bully either flame i was one of the school bullies by the time i was in yr 10! Then i found god and settled down and actually had some friend s by yr 11!

Gingerbear · 12/09/2006 16:36

I let off a stink bomb in morning assembly

Flamesparrow · 12/09/2006 16:37

awwww

Mine are quite bad. All done with other people:
Tried to knock friend's mother unconscious because she wouldn't let us watch The Blackboard Jungle (on grounds of content and late hour). We rigged up a trip wire, put ping pong balls under the carpet and a pile of suitcases over the door, and then my friend wailed 'I feel sick...'
Dangled a girl over a 12' wall with a rope made from coat belts threaded through her belt (she had grassed us up for soimething and had a pony).
Got into the tunnels and caves under Nottingham, through the school foundations - looking for the Black Panther (a murderer rumoured to be hiding out there). Then spending alternate triple science lessons hiding out in the tunnels.
Then, when my friend was hiding there, not confessing for ages when friend's mother tried to get her out of triple science for a dentist appt - friend's unexplained absence triggered a police search and poor mother screaming in terror in school office
Causing a fire in the cellar of the library block - again truanting under the school and some people were smoking...old sacks smouldered and filled the building with smoke
Running away from home when we saw the Fire Engines arriving...

It's a wonder I wasn't sent to a young offenders institution - and I had a reputation as a nice helpful friendly girl, too!

thewomanwhothoughtshewasahat · 12/09/2006 16:44

I called a teacher a f-ing bitch. in rather a loud voice. and it was the kind of school that was mostly full of nice girls who were genuinely shocked. I was the talk of the school. Rather enjoyed my infamy. But I'm probably not meant to say that.

Flamesparrow · 12/09/2006 16:45

Blu wins so far!!!

thewomanwhothoughtshewasahat · 12/09/2006 16:46

Blu! and I thought you were a nice girl too. I was one of the hardcore school smokers but we did it on the premises. didn;t have tunnels to hang out in. how cool!

Aged 10 when walking back to school after lunch I found a page from a porn magazine on the ground (man with a huge hard on) and took it into teh playground. Dinnerlady from hell caught me showing it to friends, had to go and see head master.

They told my mum to keep her 'reading material' away from her daughter she was mortified.

Blu · 12/09/2006 16:48

What on earth posessed us as 12 year-old girls, to go into dark tunnels in the sandstone, looking for a man who had brutally murdered a young girl? We thought we were helping! The school had to get it all bricked up. We got in through the back of a sports store in the cellar!
