Merlin Character

Wise application of knowledge requires good character.
Good character results from good attitudes.
Our students will do their best as we help them to choose these attitudes:

"Through all the years I’ve been in KKFS, I’ve come to appreciate many things that, to others, may seem like flaws. I’ve spent over half my life in this school, and the intimacy and tight-knit community is something so unique and precious to me. Although it may sound cliche, KKFS is truly like a family. With our occasional outings and celebrations, we enjoy the family-like competitiveness among house teams during events like Sports Day, and the diversity of our student body in celebrations like International Day. Being in this school is a life changing experience. I take pride in the fact that each and every one of our students come from unique and distinct backgrounds, and I’ve learned things that I would’ve never learned else where about them. The relationships we form between teachers and students are cherishable and although we students may complain from time to time, I believe deep down inside we are all filled with immense gratitude. To be a Merlin is to be a part of this community, this puzzle-like community, each unique piece coming together to form one unified group.

To be a Merlin is to be a part of this family."
