Each year Kitchener Scholars gather by the statue of the first Lord Kitchener in Horseguards’ Parade to mark the Two-Minute silence together and to give thanks in short service. If you haven’t been before, it’s an incredible location: very close to the cannon fired to mark 11am. View Details

The 2024 KSA Dinner is open to all Scholars and their Guests. After some diligent research by the Committee, we have chosen the Victory Services Club in Seymour Street, London. Your ticket includes a prosecco reception, delicious three-course dinner, cheese and wine. View details.
The KSA have arranged a one hour private tour for a maximum of 30 people commencing at noon. There should be ample opportunity to see and hear the two Spitfires and Hurricane taking off and landing, if listening to a Rolls Royce 27 litre V12 Merlin Engine is more your cup of tea than seeing […]

However, to ensure easier and wider geographic participation, we will run this year's event online - although that does sadly sacrifice the networking aspect over drinks […]
Chief Executive of the PEF, Felicity Cobbing, and our very own Hon. Historian, Charles Bryant, will be giving a talk on Lord Kitchener and the Survey of Western Palestine as part of the PEF's regular series of talks and lectures. We will also be able to view some of the archive material such as Kitchener's letters and maps.
If you have never been, you really should come at least once to experience the sound of a field gun from 150m (deafening), to pay respects to the 137 Kitchener Scholars who lost their lives in WWII, and to enjoy the convivial company of other Kitchener Scholars at lunch afterwards in the Great India Restaurant in Lower Sloane Street, generously hosted by Lady Emma Kitchener.
The AGM of the Kitchener Scholars' Association will take place in Committee Room 2, West Wing, The Guildhall, London on Thursday 9th January 2025 at 7-00pm. A Zoom link will be available for those unable to attend in person.
