🎉 Caterham High at Mossford Primary’s Winter Fair! ❄️ This week, our team had an amazing time supporting Mossford Primary School at their Winter Fair! Led by Mr. Kiani, we ran a fun filled stall packed with exciting games: ✅ Blindfold Hook-a-Duck ✅ Snowball toss through our cheerful snowman 🎯 ✅ Gingerbread cut-out photo booth for those perfect festive snaps 📸 The kids (and Mr Kiani!) had an absolute blast, and it was fantastic to strengthen our links with local primary schools while helping Mossford make their event a success. A huge thank you to everyone who joined in the fun – we loved every moment! 💙

🌟 Our Annual Careers Fair – Inspiring Futures! 🌟 Recently, we hosted our Annual Careers Fair, and what an incredible event it was! Students had the chance to explore a world of opportunities beyond school, meeting representatives from local businesses, universities and training providers. We were proud to welcome amazing organisations, including: Birbeck University | City St George’s | Oxford Brookes University | University of East Anglia | London Met University | University of Staffordshire | SAE London | DWP | Escape Studios | NHS England | Project Search | Lawson Planning Partnership | Pauline Quirke Academy | Pan London Solicitors | TFL | Newvic | Access Creative London Students asked questions, discovered new career paths and learned what skills and qualifications they will need for success. The energy was fantastic - many left feeling inspired and confident about their next steps, with some uncovering careers they had never considered before! We were also thrilled to welcome pupils from Fairlop Primary School, giving them an early glimpse of the exciting futures ahead. 💬 Here’s what some of our students said: ✅ “I didn’t realise there were so many options – it’s made me think about careers I’d never considered.” ✅ “Talking to the university ambassadors really helped me understand what courses are right for me.” ✅ “It was great to meet real employers and hear what they look for – now I know what skills I need to work on.” A huge thank you to everyone who made this event possible! Events like this help our students think big and plan for amazing futures. 🚀 @BirkbeckUniversityLondon @CityUniversityLondon @StGeorgesUniversityLondon @OxfordBrookesUniversity @UniversityOfEastAnglia @LondonMetropolitanUniversity @StaffordshireUniversity @SAELondon @EscapeStudios @DWPUK @NHSEngland @ProjectSearchUK @LawsonPlanningPartnership @PaulineQuirkeAcademy @PanLondonSolicitors @TransportForLondon @NewvicCollege @AccessCreativeCollege

🌟 Celebrating Jaya’s Jack Petchey Nomination! 🌟 We are incredibly proud to announce that Jaya has received a Jack Petchey nomination for her outstanding compassion, dedication and leadership within our community. This year, Jaya played a key role in raising over £2,000 to support victims of the devastating floods in Punjab. Her commitment went far beyond fundraising—she organised her own sponsored activity independently, inspired others with her positivity and showed a deep sense of empathy for others. Jaya’s thoughtful approach and determination remind us that every individual action matters. She is a true role model, leading by example through kindness and responsibility. 👏 Please join us in congratulating Jaya on this well deserved recognition! @jackpetcheyfoundation

🌟 Year 12 Students Take Action for Safeguarding 🌟 Last week, our Year 12 students partnered with an external agency to explore vital topics around healthy relationships, consent and safeguarding. The workshop was eye opening, challenging misconceptions and addressing issues such as gender roles, sexism and domestic abuse. Students learned that in the UK, two women lose their lives every week due to domestic violence—a shocking statistic that highlights why these conversations matter. This initiative aligns with the global campaign, standing against gender-based violence and promoting respect, equality and safety for all. Our students left with a deeper understanding of what makes relationships healthy and the importance of speaking out against all forms of abuse, and will be sharing their learning with the year group in an upcoming assembly, continuing the conversation and building safeguarding resilience.
