The entire King’s School community mourns most deeply the death of Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II.

Her steadfast faith, lived out in a life of selfless service and duty, has been truly inspirational. Our thoughts and prayers are with all the Royal Family in their time of profound loss.

May she rest in peace.
