Thank you to everyone who donated items, came to play bingo to raise funds, helped sort and pack donations and drove the boxes to Middlesex for our disaster relief appeal for victims of Typhoon Haiyan.

Celebrating 80 Years at Our Lady's School

Did you know Our Lady's School is 80 years old? To celebrate this wonderful achievement the Friends of Our Lady's School would like to collect stories, memories and photographs of the school past and present.

Are you a past pupil and now a parent? Have several generations of your family been to school here? Are you new to the area and have your children just started? We'd  love to hear everyone's thoughts. Between us could we find the oldest graduate of the school? The eldest graduate with our youngest pupil, what a great photograph that would be.

Where have all Our Lady's' graduates gone? Please spread the word, we might get responses from all over the world!

Please have a think and let us know your thoughts. You can always email us at OurLadysPA@gmail.com

We will also be seeking what the staff, Sisters and pupils think about supporting, working and learning in our school.

Family Fun Bingo Night November 22nd

 

With our twin school in the Philippines and many of our pupils with relatives there, the PTA Committee has decided to donate all proceeds from the upcoming bingo night to Typhoon Haiyan disaster relief as so many families have had their lives destroyed as a consequence of this horrific storm.

Everyone is invited to family bingo but if you are unable to come along on the night but wish to donate, please send your donation into school in a sealed envelope marked 'Donation for disaster fund'.
