Houses adopt new cherry trees

Each KEHS House has adopted a newly-planted cherry tree at the front of school.

Each KEHS House has adopted a newly-planted cherry tree at the
front of school.

Our beautiful 50-acre Edgbaston site is renowned for its cherry
blossom and with the planting of the four new trees, we are looking forward to
even more colour every spring.

Beaufort, Bordeaux, Seymour and Tudor House Captains, Vice-Captains
and Heads of House gathered to lay plaques at the new trees, the locations of
which will be recorded as part of the Queen’s Green Canopy programme, which has
been launched to mark Her Majesty’s forthcoming Platinum Jubilee.

We are also pleased to have marked the arrival of the new trees during
COP26.

The great Easter Debate: a sweet, chaotic showdown

If you were expecting a serious, well-structured debate at this year’s Easter debate, you were in for a surprise. What unfolded was less of a formal argument and more of a theatrical masterpiece – complete with flying chocolate, wild accusations and a speaker who somehow turned it into a human rights campaign for sugar. 

Culture Week

Culture Week wasn’t just a week, it was a reflection of who we are as a school. It was a reminder that diversity isn’t just something we talk about at KEHS. It’s something we embrace.
