He attended there till 2001 then moved up to high school and attended John Paul College and is still attending.

In his life he also began dating his now girlfriend Cassandra Richards on January 27, 2004. At school he also developed the JK insignia that has became a trademark with anything associated with him. The JK insignia has been seen in many areas all over Victoria, this usually is at James' own hand but you can never be certain.
[edit] The Show
The Show began on a small fan base which still remains loyal to the running series. It began with the initial cast of James Kennan, Alex Benson, Daniel Palermo, Andrew Knights, Benjamin Luxton and Ryan Martin. The cast quickly weeded out Ryan before making even a single segment. For a while the DVD was on hold until the now Member of Andrew Collins was picked up to replace Ryan. One day James also showed up with a life size dummy affectionately named Rashish by the cast who was later destroyed in a segment after problems with storage. The first DVD was released mid 2005 after major bumping back by the cast because they felt they had not given the public enough to satisfy them. The segments on the first DVD were...
- Bag
- Rhubarb Fever
- Stone Buddha
- Chinese New Year
- S.H.A.T.
- Tar Rock
- Hunt for the 17th Century Drunk Rabid Irishman
- Millet Fever
- P.I.G.S
- Star Wars Add
- Surrogate Ties
- Tube Cat
After the first DVD release few segments were made in slow production running generally off the hype of the DVD release. Some segments have been made after this but have not been made available to the public. The cast hopes to release another DVD by the end of 2006. The segments to be included on the next DVD are...
- Quest For Yellow Rabbit
- Hammer Time
- Pokemon Guys
- Kamikaze Deer
- Lunchin' At Hangin' Rock
- Fat Head De Muerte
- Dial Hai For Pool Ninja
- Easter At Alex's
The show is still in production but little has been done to speed up the release of the next DVD.
