About Knightsbridge Senior School

Knightsbridge School was a school for girls in Knightsbridge, South Australia (now Leabrook), which ran from 1886 to 1921.

Harriet Anne Cook (c. 1855 – November 1943) in 1885 founded a school in a spare room of a house on The Parkway, Knightsbridge owned by Euphemia Clark, whose husband, M(atthew) Symonds Clark, was a brother of John Howard Clark. Harriet was the author of an unpublished personal account Reminiscences of Life on the Government Farm 1874–1884 (1942).

Her sister Edith Agnes Cook (1859 – 2 April 1942), principal of the Advanced School for Girls in Franklin Street, Adelaide, married Samuel Grau “Sam” Hübbe ( – c. 15 October 1900) on 3 January 1885, and late that year resigned from the school, to be replaced by Madeline Rees George (c. 1851–1931). She opened a school in her house in partnership with Harriet, whose students formed the nucleus of Knightsbridge School, as they decided to name it. Boys were accepted in the youngest classes, but older classes were restricted to girls. There was no uniform, and no organised sport. Enrolments soon outgrew the space available and they purchased another house in Statenborough Street, which served until 1921, when they retired.
