The Old Caterhamians' Terrace Appeal

The Association has agreed to contribute to the refurbishment of the Pavilion by raising funds for the new terrace which will provide a superb and comfortable viewing area for matches on the Homefield. It will be named 'The Old Caterhamians' Terrace' and donations from individual OCs of £100 or more will be recognised by names being engraved on a plaque that will be permanently displayed in the Pavilion. Please click here to download a donations form.

Old Caterhamians' Scratch Golf Team

Calling all golfers - a message from Jem Blok.

The OCA continues to enter a scratch golf team into the Grafton Morrish Golf Competition on a yearly basis and the good news is that the Association has agreed to cover the registration, entry and green fees, leaving team players only with sundry expenses to meet themselves. We need to find six former pupils who would be competitive - in reality that means handicaps of 5 or below, but we'd still be pleased to hear from anyone in single figures to make sure we can at least take part! I look forward to hearing from as many of you as possible. Please do all to pass this request on to any other Old Cats that may fit the bill!

For more information please contact Jem Blok at: jemblok@cavanagh.co.uk

Calling all Teachers and Gap Graduates

Are you interested in contributing to some of the many activities taking place at Caterham School?

We would love to hear from OCs who are able to help with the CCF and the Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme or with any aspect of sports coaching.

Contact Mr. David Clark at the school on 01883 343028 OR on david.clark@caterhamschool.co.uk

Also – if you are considering a career in teaching… then please get in touch. We always need ‘gap graduates’ to assist with sports coaching, drama, art and music – highly competitive salaries available with great perks!! This applies as much to recent university leavers as to more ‘mature’ OCs who may feel like a career break!!

Please do let us know if you are interested in any of the above.

OCs working at the school

We are pleased to announce that we have eight Old Caterhamians working at the School this year:

Lorne Barnard, Charlotte Bell, Lottie Gregory, Alex Moore, Anna Murch, Mathew Owen and Jemma Riches.

Newletters

We are always looking for news and more importantly, photographs of old boys and girls to include in our Newsletters. Please send us details of your news, stories and achievements! Include a photograph if at all possible.

Amazon Shopping to benefit Caterham School
