WELCOME to the latest instalment of our chronological look through the Evening Star picture archives.

Today we are remembering the year 1984 and hope that these pictures spark some happy memories.

We have pictures of Burlington Playgroup’s summer outing in July, Boys Brigade Raft Races on the River Gipping in May, the Felixstowe Carnival Queen ball, also in May, free rides at Manning’s in Felixstowe in April, youngsters wearing Easter hats at

Nacton School in April and a teacher retiring from Dale Hall School in Ipswich in April in 1984.

As ever, if you have any memories you wish to share with Evening Star readers, drop us a line at the addresses below and we’ll feature your contributions at a later date.
