Charity

Throughout the school year, the children, staff and parents at Oatlands school will support a variety of local, national and international charities. Below is an overview of some of the charitable work we have done recently.

Happy House - Children of Watamu

Happy House1 Since 2011, we have been sponsoring 2 children via the Happy House (Children of Watamu) charity. Happy House provides a safe home for over 100 vulnerable children in Kenya as well as schooling for a further 380 children from nursery through to secondary school. We are currently sponsoring 2 girls: Diana and Elizabeth and receive regular updates about their progress and achievements.

Supporting our local Foodbank

Each year, at our Harvest Festival, we collect food items for distribution to the local community foodbank. This year we supported the Runnymede foodbank (which covers the Weybridge area) with an amazing 241.4kg of donations. Thank you to all our wonderful Oatlands families for their incredible generosity.

Royal British Legion Poppy Appeal

We are proud to support the Royal British Legion Poppy Appeal each year selling poppies and other themed items in school. This year we raised a phenomenal £256.53
