On Thursday 19th December students are welcome to celebrate the festive season by wearing Christmas Jumpers or accessories to school! This is a great opportunity to bring some holiday cheer and have a little fun as we approach the end of term.
Please note this is optional, and students are welcome to wear their regular uniform if they prefer.
If your child wishes to participate, they can wear a festive jumper, hat, or other accessories alongside their usual uniform (blazers are optional).
A voluntary donation of £2 can be made to Save the Children’s Christmas Jumper day via parent pay.
Thank you to everyone who participated. We raised £780.

Our fabulous students, along with Mums, Dads, teachers and dogs, successfully completed a Marathon on Saturday to raise money for the Gunjur project in The Gambia. https://gpagambia.org/
We ran, walked and skipped our way through 26.2 miles in the wind and rain but we were triumphant in our efforts.
The money raised will be used to ship 120 boxes of stationery, furniture, clothes, technology and even prosthetic limbs out to the project which our students will help to distribute in February. We also hope to buy food for families while we are there – a £43 bag of rice feeds a family for a month.
If you would like to contribute and donate to this fantastic cause please use this justgiving page. Your generosity is greatly appreciated.
This year Oathall Community College is working in partnership with the Bentswood Hub and The Salvation Army to provide Christmas Hampers for some of the children in our local area.
We are asking Oathall families to donate toys, gifts and food items. The students will be creating hampers and taking them to the charities for them to distribute before Christmas.
If you are in a position to donate any new, unwrapped gifts please see below suggested gift ideas.
Each year group has a designated age group to buy for to avoid duplicates.
We will also be accepting non perishable food donations such as biscuits, chocolate and sweets to add to the hampers (no nuts please). Students can drop off their gifts to their tutor any morning between now and the final drop off date of Friday 6th December.
We really appreciate any support you can give to this appeal and know that many children will benefit hugely from your kindness and generosity.
Our ‘Carols in the Barn’ event is happening on Tuesday 17th December at 7pm.
It is a beautiful event which we guarantee will put you in the Christmas mood!
It would be lovely to see you all there.
A huge thank you to everyone who participated and donated to our Odd Socks Day fundraising event! Together, we raised an incredible £638 for the Anti Bullying Alliance
Your generosity helps make a difference in promoting kindness, inclusion and the importance of being yourself.
Last Friday saw the launch of this years STEM challenge. Ten year 9 students attended the launch event and have been set the challenge of building a drone ready for this year’s challenge in July. Students also got to see a fascinating presentation from professor Stephen Wilkins about his work on the James Webb Space Telescope to help inspire them for the challenge ahead!
Year 9 were very well represented within the cadet forces on parade at the Remembrance service in Haywards Heath. The cadets spent ages preparing their uniforms and practicing their drill in preparation for the event and they did a fantastic job!
Well done to Ethan C, Ethan B, Leo, Fraser, Cameron, and Henry!
