The Stormy Blast The Stories Behind the KES Pupils who went to War

In 2013, Peter Jones, a former teacher at KES, embarked on a new journey to explore and share the poignant histories of our schools past pupils. Pete will share some of the stories from his first book, The Stormy Blast, which is a heartfelt tribute to these brave individuals. The stories bring to life the incredible journeys of KES students who transitioned from the familiar school grounds to the battlefields of Europe during times of conflict. By delving into their personal experiences, we gain a deeper understanding of the immense sacrifices they made and the profound impact their losses had on the KES community.There will be an opportunity to purchase the book on the night.
