In 1904 it was stressed that the school was too small.

In 1994 after a wonderful life the school was closed and allowed to go derelict.In July 2005   a team of volunteers  formed a committee and with aid of various grants managed to save the old school and in it was re-opened as a self financing community project known as :-
