Junior King’s provides an outstanding all-round education for children<br />
between the ages of 3-13, within a happy, secure, and caring environment.<br />
We aim to build strong and confident foundations by developing each<br />
child’s physical, social, spiritual, cultural and intellectual life.<br />
Arriving at the Pre-Prep, you will instantly sense the welcoming atmosphere and<br />
know that you are in a special place. A place of cooperation, collaboration and<br />
achievement –the bright and stimulating classrooms, the extensive grounds<br />
and Forest School in our own woodlands.<br />
Founded in 1879 as the preparatory school to The King’s School,<br />
Canterbury. In 1929 the School moved to a stunning 80 acre countryside<br />
location just two miles from Canterbury, opened by Rudyard Kipling.<br />
The Barn is one of the oldest buildings at Junior<br />
King’s and has its roots as far back as 1580. It is<br />
the main area for teaching drama and also used<br />
for assemblies, orchestra and choir practice,<br />
dance, plays and concerts.<br />
Thanks to the remarkable<br />
generosity of a number of<br />
past and present parents,<br />
