It’s been a wonderful yet busy month at KMA.

13 – 17 February was our annual Children’s Mental Health and Wellbeing Week, on the theme of ‘Let’s Connect’.

KMA students have had an incredibly positive start to 2023. Collectively they have achieved nearly 31,000 reward points in January.

The Schools Prayer Network (SPN) began when Michael Philip, a peripatetic music teacher, saw the power of prayer in school first hand. After experiencing vandalism at a school, one of the children in the Christian Union decided to pray about it. The vandalism stopped almost straight away. Michael felt that if prayer had this effect in one school, it could have similar effects in other schools.
