Giving Day 2024
On 1 and 2 July, we celebrated our second Giving Day. Over 36 hours our pupils, staff, parents and Old Cats came together to make our second Giving Day a truly special occasion for three very special causes: Transformational Bursaries, Lerang’wa School and Digital Literacy for All.
Our youngest pupils embraced the Caterham Way by taking part in ‘Bee Bolt’ races while our Senior School pupils raced across a giant inflatable in the ‘House Bounce Off’, earning points for their respective houses. Just so no-one felt left out, we also held a Bounce Off contest between Caterham staff and parents. It was a close call, but in the end the staff took home the coveted Bounce Off trophy!
A new addition to Giving day this year was ‘The Masked Stinger’, in which 3 teachers donned beekeeping suits to mask their identities for people to guess! These included Mr Terrell showing off his vocal chops, and Mr Lang playing video games!
The Caterham Museum run by the First Year was also a roaring success, attracting members of the Old Cats community from far and wide.
At the end of Caterham Giving Day 2024, we achieved an incredible 203 donors. It is a testament to the generosity of our community that we have collectively raised more than £53,000 for our three causes, and thereby helped transform young people’s lives. We are truly grateful to you.
