'A little thing is a little thing, but faithfulness in a little thing is a very great thing'
Early 1870's when the school was the Boys Grammar School
The school was built originally for a Boys Grammar School in Trafalgar Road; the corner stone of which was laid by the Mayor on 28th August,1869. It was officially opened by Edward VII, then Prince of Wales, on 6th June 1872. He stayed at Shadingfield Lodge.
On 21st September 1910, the Boys Grammar School became the Girls High School and continued until 1957 when the new High School for girls opened in Gorleston.
The Building continued as Styles Secondary Modern School until 1982 when it closed down, and in 1983 it was demolished completely to build flats.
