Papplewick Old Boys Kenza Wilks, Alex Howard-Vyse, and Ga Kitada have gone on to great things at their senior schools. They have been appointed Head Boy of Dulwich College, School Captain of Uppingham, and Deputy Head Boy of Harrow respectively.

Tom Bunbury, Headmaster at Papplewick School in Ascot, commented: “The three young men recently met up at a leadership conference at Wellington College, where they no doubt discussed how being in leadership positions at Papplewick helped them to reach their new exalted positions at their senior schools! We are very proud of all three boys.”

Alex and Kenza were joint Deputy Head Boys in 2012 while Ga was a School Prefect.

 


About Papplewick

http://www.papplewick.org.uk

Papplewick is a day, weekly, and full boarding preparatory school for around 200 boys between the ages of 6 and 13. Situated in 15 acres of land opposite Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire, Papplewick has an excellent record for academic achievement and feeds many of the UKs top independent senior schools including Eton, Harrow, Winchester, Wellington, Stowe and Bradfield.

In the last two years the school has maintained its academic record, gaining no less than 22 awards to top independent schools, including a King’s Scholarship to Eton. Through its strong commitment to sports, the school also builds skills of teamwork, sportsmanship and responsibility.

As well as academic, sporting and cultural excellence, Papplewick aims to provide boys with the confidence and security they need to fulfil their potential, and the school strives to promote enthusiasm for life, contribution to the community and kindness to others amongst all its pupils.

A recent (2013) report by the Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI) remarks that relationships between pupils and teachers are an outstanding strength of the school and are seminal in creating the strong sense of a mutually supportive and trusting community.
