Gunjur Project 2024

26th November 2024E
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.

Christmas Toy Appeal 2024

25th November 2024E

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.
