This academic year marks the 130th Anniversary of the Old Edwardian Club. Founded in 1889 by our very first KEHS leavers, the Club has fostered life-long school spirit, and given a platform for alumnae to promote and support one another beyond the school gates. To mark this auspicious occasion, we took nominations from today’s 3,000 active Club members, asking them to share the stories of some of our most inspiring alumnae. Each pupil has been given a copy of our new publication, 130 Amazing Old Edwardians. Within these pages are the stories of alumnae who have inspired others through their professional work, charitable activities, personal growth and determination, and who helped to shape the world around them for the better.
