Providence School is located on the historic grounds of Francia Plantation in St. George, Barbados. Francia was built in the early 1900s and, being built from solid coral stone blocks, has survived the test of time. Prior to becoming a school, Francia was a well-known local tourist point of interest. The school has entered into a partnership with the owner to ensure that those areas of the original building and grounds, which form the main facility of the property, are maintained in their original state for the benefit of the people of Barbados. The school intends to work with other charitable organizations to ensure that the property is made available to hold open days and charitable fund raising events so that the general public of Barbados may continue to enjoy the ambience and history of Francia.
