Wynberg-Allen School is a boarding school in India, founded in 1888. It is located in the hills near Kulri, Mussoorie, India. The alumni of Wynberg Allen School are known as Allenites or Alwynians. == History == From a meeting in Kanpur in 1887 of friends, Mr. Powell, Mr. and Mrs. Foy and Brig. Condon, who became the Founders, came the first school at Jabarkhet along the Tehri road. This provided education in the hills for twenty children. It was established as a Non-Conformist School though from the beginning, as far as funds permitted, no child of any denomination was refused admission. In 1894, the school was shifted to the present Wynberg Estate. In 1916 the Governing Society was formed. The object of the Society was to provide for and give to children, wholly or partly of European descent, an education based on Protestant Christian principles. Up to 1926, boys and girls had been accommodated on the Wynberg estate. In that year, however, older boys were transferred to the new Henry Allen Memorial School built on an adjacent hill which became the Senior School for Class 7 and upwards. In 1963, the school became a co-educational institution. In 1968, a block, consisting of class rooms, dormitory accommodation for Junior boys and members of staff, was opened in Wynberg. The school has an auditorium, gymnasium and a science block (including a computer lab) in Allen, the Senior School. The school is managed by the Wynberg Homes Society, a society registered under the Societies Act of 1860, on inter-denominational lines through a Board of Management. The school accommodates around 700 children. The Principal is Mr Tindale. 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「Wynberg Allen School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
