It's been an interesting start weather-wise for our Year 9 boys this week. Two days of scorching temperatures followed by an early closure due to rain. However, that has not dampened their enthusiasm and excitement.

The first school week of 2018 has been one of meteorological extremes that have taken me way outside my comfort zone. If making the concession that the boys didn’t need to wear their blazers on Wednesday wasn’t hard enough, we then had to conclude school prematurely on Thursday to accommodate the risk of flooding. 

We would like to welcome four new teaching staff to King's this year.

Our Counselling and Teacher Assistant teams have new members this year.

Mr Scott won the staff "Above & Beyond the Call of Duty" award this morning for his efforts on Thursday afternoon.

King’s High Old Boy (1970-74, Blues in Athletics, Cricket and Rugby) has taken up a role with the Charitable Trust with a view to raising its profile and re-engaging with the school’s alumni.

As the new academic year commences so does summer sport. We have many sports on offer for students to play and we are already busy organising teams and information. If there is a sport your son would like to play but it is not offered, we will always help boys find the right people or organisation to contact.

Presented by Dr Denise Quinlan, this practical session will share tips and strategies that parents and students can use to keep their heads above water in a busy year. The good news – wellbeing is our best protection against the stresses and challenges of everyday life.
