HISTORY

Khandallah means 'camp', or 'resting place of God'.

The school opened in 1893 in a small public hall at the bottom of what is now Simla Crescent. The present site was first occupied in April 1894 when 40 children attended. There was one large room divided by a folding partition to separate the Junior School from the Senior School.

As Khandallah grew as a suburb, so did the school. (Photo circa 1950)

In December 1972 the old school was destroyed by fire. The wooden buildings with heavily oiled floors burned rapidly.

The school as it is today.
