For current KES pupils, hearing from Old Edwardians is invaluable. Learning about the varied and interesting paths OEs have taken can provide the inspiration for our current pupils as they look to life beyond KES. That is why, as part of our Boundless Futures Giving Campaign, we want to enable 500 hours of volunteering by 2030.
