dbo:abstract
  • Horton College was a 19th-century independent Wesleyan methodist boys' boarding school, at Mona Vale near Ross, Tasmania, Australia. Founded by Captain Samuel Horton in 1855, the College closed in 1894; and during its brief period it was considered an extremely prestigious school, counting many of the region's landed families of the period as students. Its first headmaster was John Manton, and for many years its motto was the Latin: Nil sine magno labore (Nothing without great exertion). This was replaced by the Latin: Perseverantia Palman Obtinebit (Perseverance will win the prize). The school building itself was an impressive red brick structure, designed by William Archer and its ruins were listed on the (now-defunct) Register of the National Estate from 1978. (en)
