b. Greene's School, Farnborough : A I9th Century P r i v a t e School,
The only primary material concerning Greene's school which
has so f a r been located l i e s i n the v e s t r y records of S t . John's
P a r i s h Church, Cove, and c o n s i s t s of an admission and d i s m i s s a l
r e g i s t e r and the school accounts. These are contained i n one
manuscript note-book, apparently i n Greene's own hand. The admission
r e g i s t e r covers the period from the school's opening i n November 1820
to A p r i l I864, but the records were so kept that the subsequent
career of the intake of I864 can be traced up to t h e i r departure from
the school, which was as l a t e as I876 i n the cases of some c h i l d r e n
who continued to attend the Sunday School a f t e r t h e i r days i n the
D a i l y School were over. The accounts of expenditure are complete and
itemised up to I87I, but income was not summarised i n the same way.
Great care was taken to keep the admission and d i s m i s s a l
r e g i s t e r up to date. E n t r i e s did not cease when the pupils l e f t the
school, and i n a number of cases the death of the former pu p i l i s
recorded i n the margin. Overleaf i s a copy of a s e c t i o n of the
r e g i s t e r f o r 1820.
I n the period covered by the s u r v i v i n g records 986 c h i l d r e n ,
558 boys and 428 g i r l s , were admitted. The average entry was j u s t
41

over 21 each year. The years when most c h i l d r e n were admitted were
1828 and l86l when 41 were admitted each year. The average age of the
ch i l d r e n on entry to the school, as could be an t i c i p a t e d , declined
over the years from nine years of age i n 1820 to j u s t over 4 years of
age i n I864. The accompanying graph demonstrates t h i s progress by
takin g the average age on entry to the school i n f i v e year periods.
When considered i n t h i s way the average age declined from 7 years 9
months to 5 years I month i n the period 1820 to I864. A gradual
increase i n the length of the ch i l d r e n ' s stay i n school accompanied
t h i s deprease i n the average age of the c h i l d r e n .
I n common with most schools the payment of teachers' s a l a r i e s
was the l a r g e s t item of expenditure and accounted f o r £1,664-19-0 of
£5>536-1-0 spent on the schools between 1820 and I87I. Income was not
summarised i n the same way, but i t i s c l e a r that i t did not meet
expenditure. I n l847» f o r example, the school cost over £104 to run,
but the only income recorded i s £11-5-6 which came from books and
cl o t h i n g sold to the c h i l d r e n , although the parents paid f o r t h e i r
c h i l d r e n to attend the school. A part of the s a l a r y b i l l was met by
Greene himself. I n I865, f o r example, the t o t a l s a l a r y b i l l f o r the
three departments which were then functioning was £116-9-6, hut the
chi l d r e n ' s pence, paid weekly and quarterly, f e l l short of t h i s sum by
£I7-I-3> which Greene provided out of h i s own pocket.

Greene's contribution to the s a l a r y b i l l v a r i e d g r e a t l y . I n
1862 i t amounted to only £5-7~9> and i n I863 and I864 he was not
c a l l e d upon to subsidise the schools i n t h i s p a r t i c u l a r r e s pect. By
comparing the itemised cumulative accounts with the i n d i v i d u a l
y e a r l y record of expenditure i t appears that the former r e f e r to
Greene's personal f i n a n c i a l contribution to the running of the
schools. Unfortunately the f i g u r e s are not e n t i r e l y accurate and
on balance perhaps overestimate h i s p a r t . For example, by comparing
44
the I87O record with the cumulative account a discrepancy i s seen. A
t o t a l of £113-10-0 was spent on s a l a r i e s i n that year according to the
i n d i v i d u a l record, of which £8l-8-6 came from the ch i l d r e n ' s pence. On
t h i s l a t t e r point the i n d i v i d u a l and cumulative records agree. T h i s
would make Greene's contribution £32-1-6 and not £62-1-6 as the
cumulative record has i t . Unfortunately the source of Greene's
personal fortune, which enabled him to make such a s i g n i f i c a n t
c ontribution to education i n I 9 t h century Farnborough, i s not c l e a r .

I . Experiments i n Natural Philosophy
a. A i r expands by heat p73.
Experiment: a half-blown bladder i s placed before the f i r e .
The wrinkles disappear, the a i r expanding i t . Remove i t and
the a i r again contracts. Place the same under the receiver
of an air-pump and i t expands from diminished pressure.
b. A i r as a vehicle of sound p76.
Experiment! a b e l l under the receiver of an air-pump when
exhausted i s not heard.
c. The properties of metal p97.
Experiment: take a polished c y l i n d r i c a l piece of i r o n , w i t h
a piece of white paper held t i g h t l y over i t . Hold i t i n the
flame of a candle and observe i t does not char. Do the same
w i t h paper on a piece of wood and immediately the paper
turns black. The i r o n being so good a conductor does not
allow heat to re s t w i t h the paper but immediately takes i t
away.

D. I I . Arrangements f o r the study of Geometry. p59
" . . . . i n t h i s room there i s a black l i n e , marked on two
adjo i n i n g w a l l s , about a foo t from the f l o o r ; as the walls are at
right-angles t o each other, of course these l i n e s are also. They are
divided i n t o f e e t and d i v i s i o n s of a f o o t , numbered from the corner or
ri g h t - a n g l e . Then t a k i n g any point i n each of these l i n e s , and j o i n i n g
them by a s t r i n g , t h i s forms a right-angled t r i a n g l e . The boys have
learned that the sum of the squares of the two sides containing the
right-angle i s equal t o the square on the t h i r d side. The teacher
w i l l t e l l them f o r example to draw a l i n e between the point marked s i x
feet on the one and eight feet on the other; square each number, add
them together and extract the qquare r o o t , which they f i n d t o be 10;
then they apply the f f o o t r u l e , measure the s t r i n g , and f i n d i t i s
exactly ten f e e t by measurement".
I I I . Conversational Lectures s A Loaf of Bread. pI43
Substances of which i t i s composed - f l o u r , water, barm, s a l t -
are not simple, but each i s made up of many elementary substances i n t o
which they can be separated.
Flour contains gluten, starch etc which form n u t r i t i v e part of
i t as food.

I I I . ( c o n t i n u e d )
Water can be decomposed i n t o i t s elements, oxygen and hydrogen - two gases which can be reunited to form water.
Sa l t , of a gas, not colourless l i k e other gases, but yellow,
which cannot be breathed, and a metal, sodium.
Barm, a f r o t h which r i s e s t o the top of beer during ferment
a t i o n . I f the smallest crumb of bread be taken, so small as t o be only
j u s t v i s i b l e , i t w i l l contain something of a l l these d i f f e r e n t
elements
Again, when the l o a f i s cut we see a number of c e l l s of various
sizes - how came these here? The barm causes a vinous fermentation t o
take place i n the dough, by which an a i r , heavier than common a i r , and
c a l l e d carbonic acid gas, i s formed; t h i s , as the dough warms, expands,
t r i e s t o escape, but the dough, by i t s t e n a c i t y , r e t a i n s i t , and i n
t h i s way these c e l l s are formed.
Then again(sonsider)the number of people i t has given employ
ment t o before i t became bread, from the ploughboy up t o the farmer,
from sowing up to threshing, from the farmer who takes i t t o market t o
the corn-dealer, the m i l l e r , the baker.

such actual schoolmasters as, having completed t h e i r t r a i n i n g at that

Two teachers' prizes of £ 1 5 and £7 respectively f o r q u a l i f i c a t i o n and success as teachers of common things, open t o a l l schoolmasters, whether t r a i n e d or not, of Church schools l i a b l e t o inspection i n Hampshire or W i l t s h i r e , who s h a l l have kept t h e i r present schools f o r not less than nine months previous t o the time of competition, and s h a l l r e t a i n them three months l a t e r .
The examination i s t o be concluded i n one day which w i l l he

student who obtains the greatest number of marks above a minimum w i l l
obtain the students' p r i z e . Such teachers as reach or exceed a
