"The Tabeetha school was founded in 1863 and opened its doors on November 1st 1875.  Many of the stones used to build the school are said to have come from the breached wall of the ancient City of Jaffa...Jane Walker-Arnott, with the generous help of Mr. Thomas Cook, the renowned Travel Agent, purchased a plot outside the walls of the old city of Jaffa in 1874...Tabeetha admitted its first pupils, fourteen Christian, Jewish and  Muslim girls on 16 March 1863 to a room In Jane Walker-Arnott’s house.  The girls were taught to read and write, to study the Bible and to become skilled at sewing and lace-making.  The lace was sold in Scotland to raise money for the school."
