This school was opened as a consequence of the 1902 Education Act on 24 Jan 1910 and has no relation to the earlier school of a similar name. On the first day there were 130 pupils, drawn from the Abbey School, the Commercial School, the Pupil Teacher’s Centre in Mennaye Road and some intake from the top of the elementary schools.
The school was divided from the start, by the house system, into four:—Richardson, Dolben, Hodgson, Thorne after the house-masters but after one year these were renamed Treneer (dark green), Godolphin (cerise), St. Aubyn (white) and Trelawney (mauve and gold).
There was just the one central building, designed for 180 pupils, and the surroundings were rough and undeveloped. Football was played on a field by Coombe Lane, otherwise there were no dedicated facilities—there was an early demand for a Gym. There were eight classrooms lettered A to H, and woodwork below the dining room where meals cost 6d.
Even with these limited facilities, the school got off to a roaring start with a speech day in December, a sports day the following April and a magazine (Penwithian) editied by Mr. Richardson. Cricket, Football, Cross Country Running, Athletics, Boxing and Fencing flourished from a very early date with inter house matches, though few outside fixtures due to the lack of any opposing teams. Funds were raised in 1912 to purchase a piano. The days started with morning prayers and notices when the whole school gathered in the hall.
By 1918 the numbers had increased to 195 and the troubling times of the war were about to end. They mourned the loss of Mr. Hodgson and a number of old boys.
In 1937 there were 143 fee paying pupils and 106 “Minor Scholars and special pupils” in accomodation for 234 [rather full]. In 1943 the headmaster was Mr. Hearly. It closed as a separate school in 1980 to become part of the new Humphry Davy School and I understand that some traditions, such as the Humphry Davy holiday, have been continued.
