St Luke’s School was a Portsmouth institution for nearly 150 years.
Founded in 1865, it remained in Hyde Park Road in Southsea until it was closed and replaced by Ark Charter Academy which opened in 2009. We decided to dive back into The News archives and pick 39 throwback pictures from the school. Can you spot yourself?
