All I Learned At Boarding School Is That Knife Begins With An 'S' (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780646733111)

Boarding school is a world apart - a place where time is measured in bells, loyalty is forged in dorm rooms, and survival often depends on humour, resilience, and an unspoken code among peers. Behind the polished prospectuses and proud traditions lies a daily reality rarely captured: friendships that feel like family, rivalries that burn hot, rules bent (and sometimes broken), and lessons learned far beyond the classroom.

This book is an honest, often funny, and occasionally confronting reflection on those years - the rituals, the rebellions, the quiet moments of growth, and the chaos that comes from packing hundreds of adolescents into a tightly controlled environment. It explores what boarding school gives you, what it takes from you, and how those experiences linger long after the uniforms are gone.

My name is Daly Kelly, and I attended boarding school from the 27th of January 2000 to the 17th of November 2004. In this time, I shared many experiences with my peers, and I felt that many of these were worthy of publication. And so here comes the story of my life at boarding school!
