Our school backs onto Kimberley Road.
Kimberley Road was named after a British victory.
The town of Kimberley in South Africa
was besieged by the Boers.
The siege began on 14th October 1899
and was ended on 15th February 1900.

People in Greystones used call Kimberley Road,
the Green Lane and the White Road,
because of the surface of the road over time.
Thanks to Gary Acheson and members of Historical Greystones Facebook page for this information.
