Oak Heights school in Hounslow holds charity events in term 1

It’s a new week at Oak Heights School! Throughout the week we have all the Children in Need Charity events taking place. All students at Oak Heights are so excited to see how much money we are able to raise and help our community. As the week begins we have our first events taking place at first break and lunch. All activities are organised by the school council members of each year considering ideas from their fellow class students. We aim to create strong characters throughout Oak Heights School with good communication skills and be moulded into leaders. Whether the children are in year 7 or 11 they are all expected to be able to organise and carry out events managing all aspects. We have many functions starting as the week begins starting with The Ultimate skills challenge, Treat or Treat and Pin The Eye Patch On Pudsey all hosted by students in year 9.
We will come to see the outcome of the money raised by the end of the week and hopefully we will succeed just like last week with our Remembrance week charity donation. Oak Heights aim to achieve the highest and to participate within many occasions as possible. It is delightful seeing how supportive the children are at Oak Heights who are willing to take out their time to organise and raise money for charity helping out other vulnerable children.
All events are carried out fairly where all students get an equal chance of participating in all the events and receiving a chance to donate. Money will be collected at the end of the week from all the events and then the total amount will be donated towards the charity.
Alongside doing charity events for Children in Need, Oak Heights School head teacher has also organised a tournament of football for the school. This will be taking place on Wednesday 19th November 2014. Head girl and Head boy in year 11 was asked to create teams of 5 a side in order to carry out the matches. Seeing as the year 11's have had a stressful start to the year in regards to GCSE's as a school we thought it would be a good breather for the children! Students from all years where welcome to be apart of teams and come play football on Wednesday. All students participating will be supervised by Mr Dhillon and Mr Louis. Thursday will also be when the raffle winner will also be announced where the children will know who the winners are!

Events held at Oak Heights School in Hounslow

The first event which would be taking place on Monday 17th November is held by the year 9 students called The Ultimate Skills Challenge. Hosts are allocated to the event and will take charge everything is organised well and played fairly. Within this event students who are taking part will be awarded a treat based on who can do the most headers without the ball dropping. Students will be giving a small donation to be participating.

The second event which is hosted by year 9 girls is named Trick or Treat where they have many treats and tricks within a box full of confetti and other materials to hide the objects. The participants will get a specific time limit to keep their hand in and get a treat. Another event held by the year 9 girls is called Pin the Eye Patch. All these events are held to raise money for charity.

Following onto Tuesday events which will be held by Miss Gill where girls and boys are welcome to donate to get a henna design done on one hand and use the money made as a donation. Other girls within the year 9 class will also contribute to creating the designs. Card games will also be held with the year 11 boys. To compete with one another they will contribute a donation in order to help fund-raise.

During this week we had year 11 students holding a raffle where all students are able to by a raffle. The winner would not receive any homework for a whole week! Runner ups will also receive prizes up to 3rd place.

To sum up the week we as a school are also holding an auction where the children are able to bring in any unwanted items which they do not need and sell at school. All the money would then also be put towards the charity.

This is the overall look of the events which are being held in the following week. We are all excited to see how much money we are able to raise as we had a great success during Remembrance Day fund raising! Fund raising also helps the children know the importance of how important giving is to the community and how many lives are affected by every small donation! Thank you all for your continuous support. It is always much appreciated.
