Description | King Henry VIII College - opening in September 2018 - will be a new school, but one with a history that stretches back nearly 500 years. Our sister school, Christ College, Brecon was famously founded in 1541 by Henry VIII, whose name will grace this new school - the first overseas school established by Christ College. Visitors to Christ College in Brecon invariably comment on its special atmosphere and the heartfelt warmth of the welcome they receive. This will be replicated in King Henry VIII College, Malaysia: an ethos that is built on the long, proud history of Christ College. |
