==History==
The Fendalton School opened in 1875 at a time when half of the school-aged children in New Zealand were not attending school.
The school started open air classes in July 1924. It was based on pilot programmes in England where it was found that plenty of fresh air and open spaced classrooms allowed children to recover more quickly from disease. The school was closed during the Spanish flu epidemic of 1919,〔Fendalton Open Air School history〕 by the principal Ray Blank, Christchurch medical officer R B Phillips and Professor James Shelley, Education Professor of the Canterbury College. Blank and Phillips paid for half of the cost of building the new sun facing class rooms with long verandahs and large windows themselves.〔 ''The Press'', Christchurch New Zealand, 2 August 2004, recovered from Australia/New Zealand Reference Centre, 4 December 2005〕 The previous rooms were so cold that one cup of hot cocoa was sold to the students at a cost of 1d a week.〔
The School was officially renamed as Fendalton Open Air School in 1963.
