Holy Cross School (New Malden) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Holy Cross School, New Malden
The Holy Cross School is a Roman Catholic secondary school with academy status for girls located in New Malden, in the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames, England. The school specialises in science, and converted to academy status on 1 August 2012. 143 girls are admitted into Year 7 of the school each year. Most Year 11 girls apply to the small sixth form. Pupils are joined by girls and boys from other schools - mainly through its link school Richard Challoner - in the borough. The school has just under 1000 pupils attending in total. ==History== Holy Cross School was founded in 1931 by the Sisters of the Holy Cross Menzingen. The Sisters arrived in England from Switzerland during the early 1900s and set up a convent at Wimbledon (now in the London Borough of Merton). They bought a house along Sandal Road called "Southesk" - over the building's front door was a Latin inscription which read "This is the house that John built" - from Mr John Austine to use as a new school. On 23 September 1931, Sr Christina and two other Sisters opened the Holy Cross Convent School with 5 pupils. The junior department was split into a separate school and moved to new premises in 1971; it is now an independent school Holy Cross Preparatory School. Over the years, the school has continuously grown and buildings added, renovated and refurbished. The original house front remains and is the current school's main entrance. The school is no longer directly under the Sisters and now mainly staffed by lay teachers but is under the order's trusteeship.
