THE LONDON NAUTICAL SCHOOL

London Nautical Centenary
The London Nautical school was an orphanage over a century ago. London Nautical was transformed into one of the best schools in London. This year,2015, we are celebrating 100 years of this amazing school’s founding.

London Nautical has transformed great sportsmen such as Jeff Probyn who is now a professional rugby player for England’s international. John Bostock is Crystal Palace’s youngest ever player and Marcus Bettenelli is a professional goalkeeper for Fulham.

Hello. This is Liam here and I have just recently joined Splash 2 weeks ago. The Splash team and I research historical events around theLondon Nautical school’s background and events that have happened here.

Recently I have learnt that this school used to be an orphanage before the school was founded in 1915. Since 100 years has past we are celebrating the centenary in 2015.

Splash workshop at Coin Street Centre: May, 2013.

P1010279

Our visit to the Coin Street neighbourhood centre was very exciting. We met up with Anna Robinson to write stories from old photos. My picture was called ‘the New Cut’ and I wrote a story as if I was a person from that time. We were also told that our work was going to be included in an exhibition in a local gallery called the Waterloo Action Centre. The name of the exhibition was to be ‘Waterloo Sights and Sounds’, part of the Lambeth Heritage Project. That was very exciting news. I did enjoy this trip.
