Sisters Of Christ

In 2009 the Governing body thought it would be a good idea to create an award that recognised the contribution colleagues make to Catholic education, either within the school or more generally.The award was named after the Sisters of Christ who were the order of nuns responsible for the foundation of the school. It was their vision that secured Catholic education in this part of Hampshire and more importantly their charism which is wound into the DNA of Oaklands today.

The award has now been given several times. Awardees include, Judith Hoar who completed almost 40 years in the Service of Catholic Education, Helen Floyd a former Oaklands school chaplain, Julie Oldroyd, a former Deputy Headteacher.

 

Upon his retirement in 2025, Matthew Quinn became the most recent recipient of the award, recognising his exceptional service to Catholic Education.
