It has been a time of sporting success recently with a series of triumphs.
The U16 Hockey team won the County Championship, beating Rugby School in the final; the U14 and U16 Badminton teams won the Birmingham Schools Area Finals, both teams now qualifying for the Regional Finals to be held on 7th March and Paolo Odogwu has successfully made it through to the final stage of the Rugby England U16 selection.
Over the Christmas break, KES and KEHS Sixth Form pupils travelled to Berlin delving into the city’s history and culture.
Christmas at KES all wrapped up!
Exciting news! On Thursday 12 December, the BBC One Show featured the incredible true story behind the upcoming Netflix movie The Six Triple Eight, starring Kerry Washington and Oprah Winfrey. This was a remarkable opportunity to learn about the story of the 6888 Central Postal Directory Battalion – an all-female, predominantly African-American unit stationed at KES during the Second World War.
On Tuesday 10 December, KES hosted the Award Ceremony for the Two Cities Book Award, now in its third year. This initiative is a joint venture between the KES library and Wolverhampton Grammar School library, supported by Authors Aloud UK.
