Celebrating 50 Years of Kellands: A Showcase of Memories, Culture, and Creativity
As part of our "Connecting Kellands" themed lessons - an inspiring initiative to bring our school and community together through learning, fun, and shared memories - our pupils have been busy creating a wonderful series of showcase events and performances to honour Kellands School’s 50th anniversary. These activities have celebrated our school’s rich history, culture, and achievements, fostering a sense of connection, pride, and joy across our community.
From Primary 1’s delightful birthday workshop to Primary 2’s heartfelt movie premiere, each event offered a special glimpse into what makes Kellands unique. Primary 3’s interactive lapbook reports and interviews with ex-pupils uncovered fascinating stories from our past, sparking curiosity and pride. Meanwhile, alongside the LGU, Primary 4 and 5’s lively school show, The Magic Kellands Key, brought decades of history, music, fashion, and inventions vividly to life through singing, dancing, and scenes inspired by Kellands’ log-books.
Finally, Primary 6 and 7 opened the doors to Unit 3 with an engaging walk-through exhibition. Their work took visitors on a dynamic journey through five decades of popular culture, fashion, music, art, and history—and even featured a lively flash-mob!
We invite you to explore the photos, videos, and highlights from these memorable events, celebrating the history, creativity, and community spirit that make Kellands School so special. Here’s to 50 incredible years - and many more to come!

Primary 2 took a trip down memory lane and made their very own movie which included the pupils sharing their reflections and magic moments of what it means to them to be a Kellands pupil. To celebrate this, they invited their grown-ups in for some tasty treats, some kindness shanty sing-alongs and of course, to witness the premiere of their movie, 'Reflections on a half-century!'
