A Community Revitalised
Back to King’s
If there is one thing we can agree was a positive by-product of the recent pandemic, it is that human connectivity gives us something vital to our wellbeing. It’s true we gained new skills and ways of working. But at our core, we rely on each other to laugh, grow and thrive.
It has been heart-warming to see so many events happening around the three campuses of The King’s School. From the Kickstart in Colour events at Parramatta and Moss Vale to the Art Show Dinner and Billy-Cart Derby, we welcomed back the families of our community with open arms.
The Dunedoo Cricket and Art Weekend was rural warmth at its best. The inaugural Long Lunch at Futter Park was an incredibly special event and one that will linger in the hearts and minds of all who attended.
The Back to King’s weekend was ever-popular. The JS White Oval and Wanderers Ground were a cacophony of sounds and resplendent with colour as Old Boys and their families surrounded the sidelines. There were more reunions than ever before.
Thanks must go to the volunteer parent groups across our three campuses: the Prep Fathers Association, the Tudor Rose Auxiliary and the Family and Friends Association. Thanks must also go to the extraordinary volunteers who help with the many supporter groups around the school from the parents who sweated it out helping build the Mountain Biking Track at Tudor House to the sporting and co-curricular associations of the Senior School. It is not an easy task and we thank you for your service to the boys and girls of the school and the families in our community.
There are countless other house functions, year functions, impromptu gatherings and offsite catch-ups we know occur during the year. We love bringing you those stories on KingsNet and our King’s Community social media pages with the handle @tkscommunity_official.
To find out more about how you can make the most of your journey as a parent during your child’s time here at The King’s School, please visit the Parents and Community tab on KingsNet or email me at mps@kings.edu.au. There is truly something for everyone.
We look forward to a raft of new opportunities for our community to come together in 2023, both onsite and offsite and we will share the details of these events in due course.
