Surbiton High School Uniforms Make a Difference in Ghana
Surbiton High School donates old uniform to schools in Ghana.
Two years ago, the Surbiton High School Parents’ Association (PA) faced the challenge of rehoming surplus uniforms featuring the old logo. Demonstrating ingenuity and a commitment to sustainability, the PA partnered with schools abroad to find new homes for these items.
The initiative has borne fruit, with uniforms now distributed to the Katamanso Presbyterian School, Katamanso Number 1 JHS School, and the Children of the Sunday School of Olive Tree Praise Ministry near Accra, Ghana. The schools expressed heartfelt gratitude, stating: “Once again, a BIG, massive thank you to everyone who helped us put a smile on a child’s face.”
This success was made possible by the dedication of the Parents’ Association, volunteers, and supportive parents. Special recognition goes to Vicky Bulger for ensuring the safe delivery of the uniforms to Ghana.
Surbiton High School remains committed to this meaningful project and will continue collecting old logo uniforms and other suitable items to support these partner schools. This ongoing effort exemplifies how the school community can make a lasting global impact.
