Those who attended the older schools in Peterborough sat at desks similar to these, until.... when? They were just as comfortable as chairs, I thought, and the wood could be sanded and refinished. My desktop was made of one of the rarer cuts of maple - birds eye maple - and freshly varnished on the first day of school. We were taught to lift the seat silently when standing to answer questions, and at dismissal.
