Our fantastic Oathall Leaders have been working towards running events for local primary schools.

On Thursday 31st March, 13 primary schools from Haywards Heath and Burgess Hill came to Oathall to take part in a Netball year 3/4 festival.

The sports leaders planned 13 different stations varying from the technique of throwing in netball, creating space, defending, attacking, fitness stations and netball matches.

The primary school pupils had a fantastic time and were thoroughly engaged throughout the 90 minutes they were at Oathall.

Our Leaders did an amazing job and are excited about more events and the opportunity to help in primary schools in the future.

Well done to all involved.

This assembly celebrates all the hard work and achievements from this half term.

Oathall Library is pleased to announce the start of our Year 8 Book Club.

The club will be held in the Library every Tuesday Lunchtime after the Easter Break, and is open at any Year 8 students who want to come along.

Oathall will be holding a school fundraiser happening during the week beginning 4 April. The money we raise as a school will go towards providing food, water, medical care and other necessities for Ukrainian refugees. Students will be walking a mile during their PE lesson in solidarity with those who are having to flee Ukraine.

A suggested voluntary donation of £1.50 from each student will be available on School Gateway, but any amount beyond that is very welcome.

The government has also pledged to match the total funds we raise.

Many thanks in advance for your support.

How can our students be the best versions of themselves? This assembly will reinforce the high expectations we have of our students.

Our Under 13s mixed hockey team won the first-ever State School Only County Championships, held at Blatchington Mill School, Brighton, yesterday in a fantastic display of teamwork and camaraderie.

Oathall entered two teams who displayed outstanding skill and teamwork throughout the ten matches they played. Oathall 1 won their group with three wins and a draw and went on to play Sackville in a very tense but entertaining final. Zac Nicholson scored the decisive goal to make Oathall State School County Champions. Medals were awarded by the U16 ladies captain and will be presented in assemblies next week.

We would like to thank Harry Musson and Booh Crouch for volunteering to coach and umpire the matches.

Huge congratulations to all involved.

Our fantastic Modern Foreign Languages Department would like to announce the launch of the ‘Around the World in a cake’ competition.

Simply bake your cake and bring it to the Modern Foreign Language Department on Friday 1st April before registration.

Good luck

Introspection means “to look inside,” and describes the act of thinking about your own actions or inner thoughts. This assembly looks at the importance of this skill.
