Royal Visit

Published by Kent College, Canterbury Senior on Tuesday 2nd of May 2023

Great excitement this morning as a helicopter from The King's Helicopter Flight landed on the school grounds. Sophie, the Duchess of Edinburgh, is visiting the Kent and Medway Medical School based in the University of Kent and used the school field as a convenient staging post. Our younger students were able to get a closer look at the helicopter during break time. This isn't the first time a royal helicopter has landed at KC; the late Queen also helicoptered into school in 2015 when she visited Canterbury Cathedral.
