Members of the CCF recently took part in a challenging two-day field exercise, developing their fieldcraft, leadership and teamwork skills.

Sixth Form cadets planned and delivered lessons for younger cadets, while the group also learned how to operate in an unfamiliar outdoor environment, including cooking military rations, building shelters and navigating at night.

A night exercise saw cadets complete a series of patrols and meetings while defending against simulated attacks using laser taggers, putting their teamwork, decision-making and self-reliance to the test.

This weekend, Galpin’s held its annual charity event, Hoops for Hope, with pupils taking on the challenge of scoring as many basketball hoops as possible between 8am and 6pm.

This year, the event was raising money for Pilgrims Hospices, with a target of 2,555 hoops. The challenge was surpassed with an incredible 2,736 hoops, helping raise £1,352 for a great cause.

Well done to everyone involved! 🏀

🎶 A memorable evening of music at St Mary's Church, Goudhurst, saw the Junior King's School Chamber Choir and The King's School Canterbury Crypt Choir come together for a special joint concert.

The performance celebrated the strength of choral singing across both schools, with audiences enjoying a varied programme from the talented young musicians. It was particularly heartening to see former Junior King's Chamber Choir members now singing as part of The King's School Canterbury's Crypt Choir, highlighting the musical journey shared across the King's family.

Junior King's Chamber Choir also performed Fire Crow, a piece about Thomas Becket written especially for the choir earlier this year by David Knotts.

🤺We're proud to share news that Jack (6a, Marlowe) has recently been presented with The Matthew Dickinson Memorial Trophy, s presented to the epee fencers finishing at number 1 in the GBR Cadet and Junior Rankings at the end of the season.

After finishing 21st in the World Cadet Championships in Rio in April (which was the last event of the 2025 / 2026 season), Jack was ranked no1 for Men's Cadet Epee; the prize was presented to him at the Junior and Cadet National Championships in Nottingham in September.

The Senior Interhouse Debating Competition 2026 is underway! 🗣️

Debating gives pupils the chance to develop their public speaking, think critically and build persuasive arguments while considering different perspectives. This year’s motion challenged them to explore the increasingly sympathetic portrayal of villains in film and TV, with an impressively high standard across the opening round.

Congratulations to Luxmoore and The Grange, who have secured their places in the semi-finals alongside defending champions Linacre.

A fantastic performance from Maxie (Sh, MT) at the Regional Schools Biathlon Qualifier at Eastbourne College earned her a first place finish in the Year 9 girls category. A solid swim put her in second place before a blistering run saw her take the win by some 30 seconds.
