"The school adopted a ship during the war and the crew used to write to the pupils. There were four school houses in the Girl's Department of Plymouth Grove: Barrie, Derby, Elgar and Shaftesbury and each year the house with the most points received the Henley cup from Captain Henley. Miss Gronno was the Headmistress." (Notice that the same cup is shown in the photograph below)
