    • Fast Fashion House Competition

      Published 01/12/25

      As part of our commitment to sustainability, we have launched a Fast Fashion House Competition and are asking families to donate good-quality, pre-loved clothing to support the initiative.

      The aim is to take a stand against fast fashion by re-homing clean, undamaged items—clothes must be clean, with no holes, broken zips, or missing buttons.

      All donations will contribute to each house’s total, and after the competition, students will be able to choose up to three free second-hand items, with the number increasing if donations allow.

      Please send in any suitable clothing by Tuesday 9th December, with redistribution taking place after school on Tuesday 9th December. Thank you for supporting this sustainable project and helping us make a positive impact within our community.

      Thank You – We Raised £550 for Macmillan Cancer Support!

      Today our school marked the annual Macmillan Coffee Morning – though in our case it was all about the cake! Parents, carers and staff kindly donated a fantastic selection of cakes, which our students were able to purchase throughout the day.

      Thanks to the generosity of our school community, we raised an amazing £550 for Macmillan Cancer Support. This vital charity helps people living with cancer and their families receive the support they need.

      Events like this show the power of our community spirit. Thank you to everyone who baked, bought, and supported — you’ve made a real difference. A massive thank you to our Sixth Form leadership team who kindly organised the event.

      From all of us at Carshalton Girls, thank you for making our Macmillan fundraiser such a success!
