Rydes Hill Preparatory School is a co-educational Roman Catholic Preparatory school and Nursery in Guildford, Surrey, England. The school welcomes girls aged 3–11 years and boys aged 3–7 years from all denominations. ==History== Rydes Hill was founded in September 1945 by Sister Patricia of the Daughters of Mary and Joseph, a Roman Catholic religious institute, on a three-and-a-half-acre site in Aldershot Road, Guildford, Surrey, where it remains.〔 Before becoming a school, the main building was a private dwelling called Rydes Hill House, and before that was known as the Clock House. It was built in the 18th century and has Victorian extensions. In the mid 19th century, the house was the residence of William Edmund Elkins, of the Elkins Brewery family, four times mayor of Guildford. The house has a clock tower which is called 'Little Ben' by the children and is surrounded by mature trees.〔http://www.rydeshill.com/about/facilities.aspx Facilities〕 In 1989 when the Nuns retired, the ownership of the school was transferred to a charitable trust managed by a Board of Governors. 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「Rydes Hill Preparatory School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
