Eltham CollegeEltham College is a private school situated in Mottingham in south-east London. It was founded in 1842 as the London Missionary Society's School for the Sons of Missionaries and was originally based in Blackheath, London. It moved to its present site - centred around an elegant 18th century mansion (Fairy Hall) in Mottingham - in 1912. The building had previously been used by the Royal Naval School from 1889 to 1911. Eltham College began life as a small boarding school catering for children of missionaries serving overseas, mainly in India, China and Africa. Since the 1950s the college has become primarily a day school for boys with a co-educational sixth form. The extensive grounds also accommodate Eltham College Junior School. Notable former pupils include: The Headmaster since 2000 is Paul Henderson. Sources Eltham College website - heritage page
