Rannoch School was an independent boarding school, located on the south shore of Loch Rannoch in Perth and Kinross, Scotland on the Dall Estate, from Kinloch Rannoch. Dall House served as the main school building and a boarding house. It was established by three masters from Gordonstoun School and opened on 24 September 1959 with 82 boys. The founding masters were A.J.S. Greig (Headmaster and Housemaster of Dall House known as "Dougal"), P. Whitworth (Housemaster of Potteries House aka "Paddy" or "Spongy" to most of the pupils) and J. Fleming (aka "Gemflem"). The school's ethos was enshrined in its principle of "in pursuit of all round excellence" based on the philosophies of Kurt Hahn. Rannoch's location in the Highland Perthshire glens lent itself well to Outward Bound pursuits, which became a large part of the school's activities. ==Buildings== At its peak, Rannoch School had over 300 boarders (girls and boys) from ages 10 – 18. There were four boys' boarding houses: Dall (located in Dall House itself), Potteries, Wade, Wentworth; one girls' boarding house: Robertson; one junior boarding house: Cameron. In 1997, to accommodate increasing numbers of girl pupils, Wentworth merged with Dall to become Duncan House, and Wentworth became a new girls' house, Struan. Rannoch also had a modern sports centre, design centre, swimming pool, chapel and gym donated by the Prior family. It also housed a student built library. 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「Rannoch School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
