KW-Arts Winter Showcase ‘A Night In The West End’

/0 Comments/in /by
The curtain has come down on two truly magnificent performances of ‘A Night in the West End’ from our talented young performers. With songs, dances and scenes from some of the West End’s favourites: Blood Brothers, Matilda, School of Rock, Six the Musical, 9 to 5 just to name a few!
We may be slightly biased as the KW Arts Team, but it was such a good success! It was lovely to see our students work together and support each other and revel in being creative and expressive!
We have a huge pool of talent here at KWS and we cannot wait to see what our students do next in our upcoming productions: Bugsy Malone (May), Music Concert and Shakespeare Festival.

Christmas Joke Competition

/0 Comments/in /by
What a success this has been again this year!
Thank you to all parents/ carers / households and staff who entered some outstanding jokes into this year’s Christmas Joke Competition, it was a challenge to whittle it down to the top 10 best jokes.
It’s been a close vote each day, but here are the students Top 10:
  1. Why are Christmas trees so bad at knitting? They’re always dropping their needles.
  2. I threw a boomerang a few years ago. I now live in constant fear.
  3. We got our son a fridge for his birthday. We can’t wait to see his face light up when he opens it.
  4. What do you call an old snowman?  Water
  5. What do you call a caveman’s fart? A blast from the past.
  6. A gingerbread man went to the doctor complaining of a sore knee. The doctor said “Have you tried icing it?”
  7. A bear walks into a bar and says, “Give me a whiskey……… and a cola”. “Why the big pause?” asks the bartender. The bear shrugged. “I’m not sure. I was born with them.”
  8. Singing in the shower is fun until you get soap in your mouth. Then it’s a soap opera.
  9. I’m about to enter the KWS tightest hat competition.  Just hope I can pull it off.
  10. Why can’t Cinderella play football?   Because she is always running away from the ball!!
After some great deliberation, the KWS Winning joke is…
“We got our son a fridge for his birthday. We can’t wait to see his face light up when he opens it.” – Franklin

House news

/0 Comments/in /by
As the house system grows, we want to provide students with further opportunities to get involved behind the scenes with our House development.
This term we have introduced a new strand within our Student Leadership and our current Year 9 and some Year 8 students were able to apply for the new role of House Captain.
The aim of this role is to provide each house with two House Captains, who will support the Head of House Development with creating and leading inter-house and charity competitions throughout the year. All the way from coming up with the ideas to promoting them throughout the school and participating. They will communicate with the younger forms in their houses to create teams and promote house identity and values throughout the school striving to constantly raise participation, through leading and encouraging their house members.
After receiving a number of applications and reading some amazing speeches, our KWS staff were able to vote for two candidates from each house.
I would like to say a huge well done to all students who applied for the role and to also congratulate our successful House captains.
