#wakeupwednesdaysLooksmaxxing is an online trend focused on improving physical appearance, particularly among boys and young men.
While some content centres on grooming, skincare, diet and exercise, other parts of the trend can promote questionable advice, extreme practices and unrealistic expectations.
Our latest #WakeUpWednesday guide explores key concerns, including:
• Pressure around male appearance and body image
• Misleading or potentially dangerous advice
• Obsessive behaviours and declining self-worth
• Mental health concerns
• Exposure to increasingly extreme online communities
It also shares practical advice for parents and educators on recognising looksmaxxing terminology, noticing changes in behaviour and starting supportive conversations about appearance, influencers and online expectations.

On Monday we were delighted to welcome George Inger of London Mavericks and England Netball to officially open our newly refurbished netball courts and enhanced 3G facilities.
As part of the event, George spent time working with our Year 8, 9 and 10 netball teams, leading a coaching session and sharing her experiences of playing at the highest level. It was a fantastic opportunity for our students, who showed great enthusiasm and represented the school brilliantly throughout the visit.
The improvements have been made possible through funding of £100,000, secured last year, which has enabled us to significantly enhance our netball and tennis facilities. The investment represents a major boost to sport at Oxted School.
We would like to place on record our sincere thanks to George for taking the time to visit, and to Dunottar School and Tandridge District Council for their support in helping make this project possible.
At Oxted School, we believe that sport plays a vital role in developing confidence, resilience, teamwork and wellbeing. These improvements will ensure that even more young people can access high-quality sporting opportunities for many years to come.

Our Year 11 students recently visited MathsWorld, the world’s first maths discovery centre, where they explored how mathematics can be applied in everyday life.
Through a range of hands-on exhibits, students experienced maths in action and discovered the practical role it plays beyond the classroom. They also took part in an exciting team challenge to construct a Leonardo Dome - an impressive curved structure created entirely from straight pieces. The activity encouraged collaboration, problem-solving and creative thinking, while bringing mathematical concepts to life in a memorable and engaging way.

Who doesn't like a bit of Elvis Presley 😀 It's great to see that some former Oxted students are involved in this production 😁

Discord gives young people a space to chat, play games and join communities based around shared interests.
While it can be a positive way to connect with friends, there are also important risks for parents and educators to understand.
Our latest #WakeUpWednesday guide highlights:
• Contact with strangers
• Harassment and harmful behaviour
• Exposure to inappropriate content
• Gaming and socialising becoming a distraction
• Spending and subscription risks
It also shares practical advice on using Discord’s Family Centre, reviewing privacy and spending settings, talking openly about suspicious behaviour and agreeing clear expectations around screen time.

The Oxted rugby squad travelled to Caterham for their first fixture of the season.
It started with a loss against Wilsons for team 2 who came up against a good outfit.
The same fate for team 1 as they lost out to Caterham 1.
They played some good rugby but errors cost them and Caterham capitalised.
The second game saw team 2 play much better. Ben grabbed 2 tries and Aidan, despite a knock in game 1, continued his fine scoring he ended with last season.
Team 1 followed up by scoring some great tries against Caterham 2.
Charlie and Shea combined before Noah ran in to score the opener. Then Shea himself got one from close range.
Shea went over again after beating a few men. Then he turned provider for Charlie to score his first.
Caleb went over in the corner after some great oxted attack and Charlie finished off 2 more for his hat trick after some good play by Kian and Zac.
An excellent outing for the lads as they build on last years hard work

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 Oxted’s success grew and the school became more popular a fifth House was needed and Stocketts was created in 1965.
