Samuel White's School - History taken for their website..
In 1860, Samuel White's School opened in Hanham High Street where the library and youth club stand now. The school was then called 'Hanham Wesleyan Day School' because it was next door to the Wesleyan Church. A man called Samuel White gave the money for the school to be built.
In 1900 the school closed for quite a while and when it opened again it took the new name Samuel White's School. Until 1929 the school took children up to 14 years old.
In 1936 the children at Samuel White's School who were 7 and over were moved to Hanham Abbots Junior School. Most of the children from our school still move on to this junior school.
