A small primary school, catering for the Clifton area, was established in 1905 and housed in the St. Alban's Church hall.

In 1912, buildings were erected on the present site and the school began to grow.

1993 saw a new administration and classroom block, as well as new garages, and renovations were made to the entire school.

Williams House was renovated to provide a music centre for the school.

The extensions were opened in August 1994 by the Minister of Sport, Mr Steve Tshwete.
