Comments: Hello everyone - I left KLB's 6th Form in 1997 to go to Southampton and read Business and Law - since then I worked for a couple of years in two law firms (one in Durzle and one in Cheltenham). Last year I decided to go back to Uni to do my professional exams to qualify as a solicitor at UWE (I was on the same course as Sally Jupp another old KLB'er). I passed and I am now working in Cheltenham doing my training contract - I will be qualified in April 2005 (hopefully). I have also moved to Cheltenham now and live with Kevin Churchill (another old KLB'er!!) If you're still there Mr Penman - I never did say thank you for your help and support during the 7 years you taught me - you're the teacher that I will never forget. Jo Gordon sends her best wishes too!! (yes, we're still attached at the hip!!)

Comments: Having read everyone's updates I thought it was my turn! I've worked in insurance for two years after leaving KLB but for the past 14 months I've been working at the BRI hospital, Bristol. In January I'm starting a nursing diploma at UWE, so watch out if you're admitted to hospital, you might get me looking after you!

Comments: Hello, I would like to thank the webmaster for providing such useful information. I am sorry if my English is not so good as I am French. The site has been really useful for the ICT course that all players follow during our stay at Arsenal FC. It has allowed me to pass my test and so to earn some more qualifications which are always useful. Thank you once again, Thierry Henry.

Comments: Hey up. I still can't quite believe that I left in Summer 2000, but very glad 2c some of you still want to keep in touch. What has happened to everyone? Since leaving I've spent 6 months in China, dabbled in reporting and now I'm going into a 3rd yr Sociology degree at Leicester University. Thanks for the experiences KLB, especially the teachers who suffered my chatting and blank 'me?' expressions. Mail me and let me know how you're all doing! Miss you!

Comments: Hi guys... nice to see some familiar names. I Left KLB 1981 after what I thought was a torturous few years, but yeah what they say is true, your schooldays are always the best, and I suppose they were right. I've lost Steve Horton's telephone number, I know he is still in Wotton-under-Edge somewhere so can anyone help...

Where are you from?: Wotton, but USA @ the mo. Left KLB last year.

Comments: HI EVERYONE!!! Just thought I'd drop a quick note to those at KLB to let you know how much I miss it! HONESTLY!! You won't realise until you leave... After spending 7 years at that school, you get an attachment to it that you are unaware of until it's time for you to go. I am in the States at the moment for the summer doing Camp America! It's so much fun!! And when I return I'm going to university to do media and performance arts. I wish I could come back to KLB though.. Life was so easy back then!!

Comments: Hey just surfing (avoiding coursework!) and came upon this, well I must say it's very professional!! I left KLB in the summer of 2001 after 7 years!!! I'd like to say thanks to all the teachers who helped me through (you know who you are!), you don't really think to say thanks at the time! Especially Mrs Carter who had the pleasure(?) of being my maths teacher for all 7 of those years! Well it must have rubbed off as I'm now in my second year of a mathematical sciences degree and the University of Bath!! It's all good but kinda wish I was still back at KLB, you don't miss it till you leave!!!

Hope everyone r well, including all those teachers I tormented for years!! can't believe that my first year at University is almost over! I shall be a qualified teacher in no time (yes I was actually inspired whilst I was at KLB!) so I'll have to call up Mr Harris to give me a job!!! I popped in not long ago but I'm sure I'll be back again! bye bye - Joey xx

Comments: Hi, my name is Claire and I am in year 10 at a school in Cheshire. I chosen ICT GCSE for my options and we are doing our first piece of coursework. We are doing Project 1a. I went onto the Yahoo search engine and typed in advantages and disadvantages of using ICT. It brought up the KLB website and I clicked on it. I found a web page saying Project 1a Evaluation, this was very useful to me as I am finding this project a bit hard. Thanks for the help. Luv Claire xxx
