(At Kent School from 1980 to 1983, academic years: 2ND to 4TH) Like most military kids I went to a lot of schools, but Kent has many fond memories. Its been over 40 years since I left and for those that know me, I still alive and well ! I have run into a few of you in life and we all say what a great place Kent was. unique. It deserves to be looked after and I see restoration has begun. A special place in special times. Take care every one. H xx 25-Feb-2024 11:10:32

(At Kent School from 1978 to 1989, academic years: 1ST to 1ST) To all of you that do not have Facebook or have not yet heard the news, the Kent School property was purchased in 2021 and restauration work has now started on the church roof. Plans are to restore the church, Medway (the old Monastery building), Science Block (Block 4) and the two main buildings (east and west). I work on the property and we have started to film the buildings so you can all stay tuned and are updated on what is going on. 02-Nov-2022 07:59:12

(At Kent School from 1971 to 1974, academic years: 1ST to 3RD) Delighted to find this site and that so many people remember it as a happy place as I do. That great big bus park, singing all the way home on the long benches at the back of the bus and waving to 'Adolf' at the border crossing, going through no man's land every day, Friday lunchtime disco doing the hair dance round our satchels, the Nissan huts where we did maths, the huge hockey field (I was very small). Was it Miss Bell, the scary PE teacher, who made us go in the showers whatever the time of the month? Mr Mordecai used to scratch his nails on the blackboard if we got something wrong. Lovely pretty Miss Lowther but my reason for finding this site is I am wondering if Mr Knox is still around. I went all the way to A level with German and never felt that I learnt much more than what he taught us in 18 months. But those awful class names in French and German. I was Madeleine in French and Gerda in German (really!). We were posted back to RAF Valley and we stuck on Anglesey. I have often wondered about my big friend Colin Smith and his constant companion Douglas Pope, Karen Flounder, David Bridge, Andrew Jepson and Denise Carpenter who cracked me over the ankles with her hockey stick, many others, Malcolm who was in 6th form. We used to spend all our lunchtimes writing political slogans and eating Marmite sandwiches. Lovely Sara Moore who lived across the road from us in Roermond, 18 and finishing her A levels but allowed to get married as Ken had been posted. We watched Princess Anne's wedding together on TV. I have never forgotten which order to do the washing up - glasses, cutlery, dishes, pots - thanks Domestic Science room, I can see you now. Reading the history of the school makes us even more conscious of the great job the teachers did that we were never aware of any of that darkness. I was Richards in school due to a second marriage but went back to my original name when I got the chance. Thanks for making this site Colin. 22-Aug-2022 15:09:11
