Source diversity[edit]

Dear wikipedians, I'm finding few online sources to use in expanding this article, and even less bibliographical ones. Will keep searching; any help will be greatly appreciated. Regards, DPdH (talk) 12:53, 19 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Established date[edit]

Sources referenced mention 1849 as year of establishment for this school, however the official crest has 1842 in it. Can anyone point to verifiable sources to explain this discrepancy? Thanks, DPdH (talk) 01:48, 26 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The school's website is itself inconsistent: this page cites 1842, but this page does not mention 1842. The 1849 date is well documented in other sources. It's possible that 1842 refers to some previous event - perhaps a predecessor school? It's unclear what it could be. --165.225.80.250 (talk) 13:52, 12 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
