This is the history of 'Hagbourne Primary School, 1873-2000'. Written by the headmistress, it is an affectionate account of a school founded as a result of the 1870 Education Act, using old documents, photographs and memories of former pupils to trace its history up to the present day. There is much interesting information here especially for past and present pupils. [JD Sep 2002]
