Elmley School II

Elmley School

Elmley school prospered until after World War 1, when a notice was given in 1919 by the Kent Education Committee which read: “The Committee is considering a proposal to close what is believed to be the smallest school in England, that at Elmley. There are only five children on the books, three of which are the children of the Headteacher.”

The Road

The Road goes ever on and on
Out from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
Let others follow it who can!
Let them a journey new begin,
But I at last with weary feet
Will turn towards the lighted inn,
My evening-rest and sleep to meet.

Good Night

Now it's time to say good night,
Good night. Sleep tight.
