School Meals at Oathall

30th August 2018Oathall

School meals at Oathall are prepared and served by our own in-house catering team.

Catering Manager Mrs Denyer and her staff are committed to delivering the highest standards using fresh, good quality ingredients. The food and drink that we offer comply with the school food plan standards.

Menus are rotated every three weeks with themed days being a regular feature.  They are varied, nutritionally balanced and cater for all dietary needs. We offer gluten-free menus but ask that your child pre-orders this each day with the canteen team. We operate a nut-free policy but we are not always able to guarantee that nuts are not brought into the school by other children.

If you have any dietary requirements for your child please speak to Mrs Denyer or email her on sdenyer@oathall.org we will do our best to accommodate any requests.

What is OPTA?

15th August 2012Oathall

Oathall’s busy Parent Teacher Association (or OPTA) is a friendly and enthusiastic group of people with a desire to contribute positively to school life.

We aim to encourage positive relationships and communication between parents and teachers, tackling the wellbeing of the school and the welfare and development of our children together.

Like other PTAs we fundraise for those extra things that the school budget cannot cater for whilst strengthening the school community through social events and activities.

January 2021 school closure

30th December 2020J Godbolt

Following the latest government announcement on Monday 4 January, the school is closed to students in all year groups until further notice.

Whilst the school will be closed for learning for the majority of students, we will, of course, continue to support on-site those children of critical workers who feel that their children cannot work from home. We will also offer on-site support to those children for whom a particular need has been identified. Anyone requiring a critical worker place for their child(ren), should contact the school at keyworker@oathall.org.

In normal times, the college has a programme of extracurricular and enrichment activities running throughout the year. These range from regular weekly lunchtime and after school clubs to trips and visits to a variety of places and organisations. Towards the end of the summer term, we have an enrichment week with residential trips in the UK and overseas as well as day trips and on-site enrichment activities.

The following is an example of an extracurricular timetable from last year. Many of these activities are completely free of charge.

School Tours

29th September 2020J Godbolt

Whilst the best way to see Oathall is in person during the school day, we are unable to offer our open mornings and tours of the school this year as we would have wanted to. 

In response to a number of requests, it may be possible to arrange a short visit to the site after school hours. This is really intended for those families unfamiliar with Oathall.

Due to the latest restrictions, we will only be able to offer a limited number of such visits and these will be on a first-come-first-served basis. They will take place between 4 and 5 pm on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays, starting on Wednesday, 7th October until Friday, 23rd October. Alternatively, visits are available on a Saturday morning, either at 9.00 am, 10.00 am or 11.00 am on 10th, 17th or 24th October.

Please note that we are limiting the numbers of visitors on to the school site to comply with current government coronavirus guidelines. Consequently, our visits are restricted to a maximum of 2 families made up of one Year 6 student (or twins) and one parent per family.

To book, please telephone the school office on 01444 414001
