Sal’s Shoes Founder CJ Bowry Awarded OBE

Huge and well-deserved congratulations to Sal’s Shoes founder and mum to Sal (Third Year) and Clemmie (Year 6) CJ Bowry who was awarded an OBE in the New Year Honours List. Sal’s Shoes has been one of the Parents’ Association’s chosen charities for the past four years and it has been well supported by our prep and senior school families with donations of footwear each term matched with financial donations from the PA.

As part of the EDGE digital & innovation curriculum, our First Year pupils have collaborated with the charity to not only sort and pack shoes for shipping to new feet but a project that links with pupils in Ghana and will help us to better understand what is like to walk in their shoes. Watch the video above above to find out more about the project.

CJ, is a regular speaker at many CaterhamConnected events and is an inspiration to us all – we couldn’t be happier for you.

You can donate your preloved shoes at the next school collection:

Friday 19 January – Front of senior school

Saturday 20 January – Front of senior school
