Year 4 from Ruckleigh School in Solihull joined us on 10 May to explore the contents of the KES pond and the Edgbaston Nature reserve. Led indefatigably by Dr Galloway and Mr Porter, find of the day was a Caddisfly larva, which had built itself a protective suit of twigs and leaves. The children were delighted to spot a peregrine falcon through their binoculars.
Where to start? Such talent, such charisma, such splendour.
This year nineteen visitors contributed to our Careers Week programme and offered us a feast of insights into different career pathways and roles.
The much-anticipated Cleobury-Mortimer residential is one of the highlights of musical life at KES: the hours of rehearsals, bouncy castles and a lack of sleep make it a memorable trip for anyone lucky enough to go.
It was a privilege for our year 12 pupils to attend a jam-packed morning of higher education sessions given by leading academics and admissions staff from Birmingham, Aston, Warwick, Leicester and Nottingham Universities.
