4 Year 7 Promote Human Rights All students in Year 7 have been working hard on a group project in PSHE researching into an area of interest to do with Human Rights. They chose such topics as child slavery, the status of refugees, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the right to be educated with regards to girls in some parts of the world. They displayed their work in the Canteen during break and lunch and were so pleased that staff and older students took a great interest in the fantastic work they have done. Well done Year 7.

The competition tested students' ability to problem solve, tested their mental arithmetic skills and their ability to think on their feet. The competition was tough as they were up against neighbouring schools, Seven Kings, Little Ilford and Mayfield to name a few. The students did extremely well at representing Oaks Park; they were focused, determined and motivated to win their round. I am privileged and proud to say we successfully won our heat and are now on our way to the semi-finals in June at City Hall. Many congratulations to all five students on their great success.

Year 7 Cricket fixture The Year 7 boys played their first fixture of the season as they hosted New Hall School from Chelmsford in the under 12 cup competition.

6 Year 7 Cricket fixture The Year 7 boys played their first fixture of the season as they hosted New Hall School from Chelmsford in the under 12 cup competition. The odds were stacked in the away teams favour with a rich history of cricket at the school that has seen many players progress to county cricket. Oaks Park chose to bowl first and both Yasin Koatwall 7Y and Kaylan Pall 7P bowled tight spells against the impressive opening batsmen. Both bowlers picked up a wicket each but it was the spin bowling of Muhammad Zarar Khattak 7B that stole the show with two wickets and his four overs only going for twenty runs. New Hall ended up scoring 176 from their twenty overs. Unfortunately the second half of the match saw Oaks Park collapse to 18 all out. The standard of the New Hall bowling was very impressive and the Oaks Park batsmen couldn't handle the pace of the ball. Dylan Young 7P stuck around for a long time which frustrated the New Hall bowlers but wickets kept falling around him. For some of the pupils it was their first game of cricket and all the boys can be proud of the way they played. The Year 7 team will now enter the Plate competition were they will play Boswells school. Mr Wood PE Department
