Thistley Hough Academy is a mixed community secondary school located in the village of Penkhull in Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire. The school was built in 1938 as a school for girls but now caters for both girls and boys aged 11–16. It was originally housed in a classical Art Deco building.〔(Art deco - Thistley Hough High School exterior, Penkhull )〕 The old building has since been demolished and a new £15,000,000 school has been constructed. The groundbreaking ceremony for the new building took place in September 2011〔(Aedas’ Thistley Hough High School Groundbreaking Ceremony took place today | Aedas | News & Events | 8/9/2011 )〕 and was opened in May 2013 by the Chairman of Stoke City Football Club Peter Coates.〔(Coates urges pupils to reach their goals | This is Staffordshire )〕 ==Identity== The academy’s motto is “my open eyes desire the truth”, which is adapted from the Alfred Lord Tennyson poem “Freedom”. The original line appears in the following stanza of the poem: ''The wisdom of a thousand years'' ''Is in them. May perpetual youth'' ''Keep dry their light from tears;”'' The motto was originally adopted in 1938 when the school first opened as a girls' grammar school, and was re-established as the school motto in 2012. 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「Thistley Hough Academy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
