Built in 1939; originally known as Kingsthorne. Mavis attended in the late 1940s and remembers Headteacher Miss Evans. Mavis says - ‘she was very handy with the cane; had sore hand on many occasions for silly little things - mind you, didn't do me any harm.’  The next Headteacher was a Miss Campbell. The school changed its name to Hunts Cross in 1970; Infant and junior schools amalgamated about 1990.
