The school later became Howardian High School and a Grammar School in 1941. Much of the school was subsequently destroyed by incendiary bombs in the Cardiff Blitz 〔(Bomb damage at Howard Gardens Board School, Cardiff, 1941 (photo) ), www.peoplescollectionwales.co.uk〕 during the night of 3–4 March 1941 in World War II. After the war the building was partially repaired.〔(Cardiff Schools & the Age of the Second World War, The Log Books: A Documentary History 1938-1945 ), Keith Strange, (undated document)〕 In July 1952, after Howardian High School had relocated to Penylan, the Howard Gardens school was opened as a new technical school in September 1953 with around 200 boys. The school was officially named ‘Fitzalan Technical High School’ in December 1953. The Howard Gardens site was to be re-developed (now the campus of Cardiff Metropolitan University) and Fitzalan Technical High School acquired new premises on the present site in Lawrenny Avenue, Canton, Cardiff. It was opened on Tuesday 3 March 1964. In January 1968 the school was renamed Fitzalan High School (dropping 'Technical'), becoming a comprehensive school. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fitzalan High School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
