History
The college was founded by Lt. Gen(R) Nazar Hussain in 1997 with only one building which used to serve as a multipurpose building for academics, hostel, mess, common room and for administration. Now it has beautiful and state of the art separate buildings for all purposes. The first entry of CCKK passed out in 2003. This entry is called THE PIONEERS. Ali Zafar (now captain in Pakistan Army) was the first college prefect and at the same time wing commander of haider wing. Furqan Wali (now Captain in Pakistan Army) was the first wing commander of Jinnah wing. Ahsan Farhat was the first wing commander of baber wing and Ammar Farooq (Now Lt in Pakistan Navy) was the first wing commander of omer wing. In the first formal inter wing sports competition, Jinnah wing won the three out of four trophies. These trophies included Basketball, Volleyball and Football. Cricket trophy met some controversy and ultimately went to Omer wing. College's first Colors were given to Hashim Mir, Furqan Wali and Ali Zafar (all three for basketball). The college basketball team and football team defeated the local college's teams but were defeated by Military college Jehlum in its first official encounter. CCKK has also the honour of hosting of the biggest sports gala in 2008 which included Military college Jehlum, cadet college Hassan Abdal, Cadet College Kohat, Cadet college Kallar Kahar and PAF college Sargodah.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“What has history to do with me? Mine is the first and only world! I want to report how I find the world. What others have told me about the world is a very small and incidental part of my experience. I have to judge the world, to measure things.”
—Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)
“The foregoing generations beheld God and nature face to face; we, through their eyes. Why should not we also enjoy an original relation to the universe? Why should not we have a poetry and philosophy of insight and not of tradition, and a religion by revelation to us, and not the history of theirs?”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“They are a sort of post-house,where the Fates
Change horses, making history change its tune,
Then spur away o’er empires and o’er states,
Leaving at last not much besides chronology,
Excepting the post-obits of theology.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
