From influencer promotions to in-game adverts, children are exposed to advertising across their digital lives. But with developing critical thinking skills and increasingly sophisticated marketing techniques, recognising when content is trying to sell them something isn't always easy.
Our latest #WakeUpWednesday guide examines:
β’ The growing influence of influencer marketing on children's purchasing decisions
β’ How online advertising can create pressure on parents to buy products
β’ The impact of unrealistic expectations around products, appearance and lifestyle
β’ Exposure to harmful or age-inappropriate advertising
β’ The risks of unintended purchases through games, apps and online platforms
β’ How a lack of advertising transparency can make promotional content difficult to recognise

CUP VICTORY!
Oxted came from behind to secure a fantastic 2β1 win against Whitgift. Jack levelled the score before Fred calmly finished the winner with just minutes remaining.
A solid team performance from start to finish!

We were delighted to welcome the 'Guildford Shakespeare Company' for their performance of Macbeth for all Year 11 students. The production was engaging, energetic, and highly accessible, bringing Shakespeare's text to life in a way that captured students' attention throughout. The timing of the performance was particularly beneficial, as it took place ahead of the Year 11 Winter Assessments. Students were able to consolidate their knowledge of the text and strengthen their understanding of key quotations and dramatic techniques. We are extremely grateful to the theatre company for delivering such a professional and inspiring performance.

District Cross Country Success!
A tough course and plenty of rain made for challenging conditions at District Cross Country, but the girls showed fantastic determination and produced some brilliant results.
A special mention to Chloe, who battled through a nasty fall to finish 3rd and claim a medal π₯ - an incredible achievement!
Well done to all the girls for their resilience, team spirit and fantastic performances.

The Year 9 team faced Reigate in a fast-paced and competitive netball match. After a challenging first quarter, the girls began to settle into the game, growing in confidence and attacking with determination.
Our mid-court players worked tirelessly throughout, driving the ball down the court and feeding some lovely passes into the D for the shooters. The team showed great resilience, teamwork and effort from start to finish.
Unfortunately, it wasn't our game this time, and the girls came away with a loss. However, they should be incredibly proud of their hard work, commitment and positive attitude throughout the match.
π Player of the Match: Lolly π
Well done to all the girls for their hard work and determination.

The House System
The House system has existed at Oxted School since 1929 when the school first opened. Originally there were four Houses: Detillens, Foyles, Grants and Tenchleys. As Oxtedβs success grew and the school became more popular a fifth House was needed and Stocketts was created in 1965.
