It has been fantastic to welcome so many new faces to our school over the past few weeks as part of our open events and tours. We hope this has given you a little taste of what KSA is really about and we look forward to welcoming many of you to our school community in September next year!
If you missed the open evening here's a little taster of what was on show...

Message to all GCSE and A Level Art students from last year. If you would like your artwork, please could you come in before the end of December to collect it.
Unfortunately, we have limited storage space and therefore after 20th December we will need to dispose of your work.
Please get in touch with main reception via telephone or email HoFArt [at] kenstimpson.org.uk to arrange a collection day and time so we can have your work ready for you.
If you have any issues collecting, please do get in touch. We have some lovely work so we hope lots of you are able to collect!
The Art Faculty
Throughout this year our Performing Arts Faculty is hosting special workshops for local primary school children. This is a fantastic opportunity for the students to get a taste of our facilities, have some fun with our staff and students and build their confidence through dance, drama and music.
We hope the students that have taken part so far have enjoyed it as much as we have and we look forward to seeing many more over the coming months!
If your primary school would like to take part in these visits please do get in touch
Curious about what goes on inside our school? We're opening up our doors to our community, come and have a look around and tour our facilities - open to anybody, not just prospective parents.

We had a number of students nominated for the Headteacher's commendations this past week. Students were nominated for a whole host of reasons including taking part in the Tall Ships Voyage, doing exceptional levels of work outside of school and for their kindness and compassion towards new students who have recently joined. What an amazing group of young people!
We are recruiting for a number of positions:
The Tall Ship crew received their certificates of completion this week from Mr Whales along with their RYA Start Yachting qualification which they all successfully passed. Well done everyone!
Last week we had 4 students nominated for Headteacher's Commendations. Hanna and Oliver were nominated for volunteering to read in front of 2 year groups and did this extremely well. Gabrielle was nominated for taking part in a European Futsal tournament last academic year where she and her team came back as winners and champions. Finnian was nominated for being a model student, who Ms Farthing described as a credit to the school. We are extremely proud of all 4 students!
