Saint Kentigern Boys’ School Prospectus

I

believe boys thrive when their education is tailored for and delivered, in a boys’ only environment. At Saint Kentigern Boys’ School we specialise in preparing boys to excel in the next stage of their education journey.

It’s not only our focus on excellence in academic, sporting and cultural programmes that ensures the best preparation, it’s also our commitment to our Christian family values and our truly held belief that all our graduates can go on to realise the Saint Kentigern Vision ‘to serve and lead with distinction’. This is a part of the Saint Kentigern legacy.

We want our boys, to become global citizens and future leaders of their communities, fully prepared and confident, with the necessary resilience, to meet the challenges that they will face in a rapidly changing world.

Without Comparison

Research shows that in a boys’ only primary school environment, he can really have time to explore who he is. We emphasise the unique nature of each and every boy and your son will be encouraged to strive for excellence in all his endeavours, developing a balance of confidence and humility as cornerstones of his character, forming a rock solid foundation for his life.

Our exceptional teachers will truly make a difference in your son’s education. We recognise that boys, in particular, require a structured learning environment. Our curriculum engages them at every level in purposeful learning goals; capturing their interest in authentic ways to give learning tasks real meaning.

A strong foundation of literacy and numeracy is at the core of this curriculum together with essential engagement in the digital environment.

We want our boys, to become global citizens and future leaders of their communities, fully prepared and confident, with the necessary resilience, to meet the challenges that they will face in a rapidly changing world.

In 2022 the Saint Kentigern Trust Board will open world class Senior Boys’ Classrooms and Specialist Facilities on our Shore Road Campus. The development will build on Saint Kentigern’s proud 70 year educational legacy and is designed to enhance the very best in future focussed primary teaching and learning.

Thank you for taking the time to visit Saint Kentigern Boys’ School.

We look forward to welcoming you, your son and your family to our amazing school that provides a world of opportunity and simply is ‘without comparison’.
