This week we welcomed the return of our Heritage Prayer Walk, 'Beating the Bounds'.

'Beating the Bounds' is an ancient custom which used to involve walking the boundaries of a church parish and marking them out by beating them with sticks. It is a custom still observed in some parts of Britain and is a tradition which we have upheld for many years.

A group made up of students, parents and teachers were led by our Chaplain, John Webster, and were told the history of the buildings within our boundary. At each stop, a prayer was read and the 'Beating of the Bounds' was performed.

It is important for us as a school to celebrate our distinguished history and re-tell the stories which have shaped us in to the King's that we know and love today.
