Grays Convent High School


Grays Convent High School is a girls' Roman Catholic secondary school in Grays, Essex, England.
It is a voluntary-aided school which has been awarded Beacon school status and is officially a specialist Language College.
The College Avenue school was founded by the Sisters of La Sainte Union des Sacrés-Coeurs in 1906, expanding from the initial school in St Thomas's Church established in 1899.
The school building was damaged by a bomb blast during World War II and repaired in the 1950s. Parts of the school building itself were used as living quarters for several sisters until 1999.
