Fistral House

Fistral Beach

FISTRAL HOUSE is lead by Mr Clifford and has been since the inception of the House system in 2005. Green is Fistral's House colour and students wear a green and black tie which identifies them as a Fistral member. The majority of our forms register in the Maths and Science area of the college. Mr Clifford’s office and the house notice board can be found at the centre of the college at student services. There are 11 Form tutors in Fistral House and these Tutors should be the first point of contact for parents who wish to enquire about their son/daughter.

Fistral’s House charity is Aid4orphans. This is a Newquay based charity set up by Peter and Vanessa Bragg to supply financial assistance and educational sponsorship for the children of The Likoni Aids Orphanage in Kenya.

The Orphanage is run by Reverend Ernest Ombeva and his wife Mary in conjunction with Timbwani Baptist Church, located south of Mombasa in the sprawling Likoni slum area and currently provides a home for 47 children who have lost both parents to Aids.

Fistral students have sent letters to the children of the orphanage introducing themselves and received the replies. We have had a successful link with the orphanage and the associated school for 3 years and have raised £1679 (2009), £1400 (2010) and £900 so far this year. These funds have been used to build the Treviglas rooms at the school and provide electricity.

Back in July Fistral students also elected new House Captains, Sport Captains, Prefects and Year Captains. The new student leaders of Fistral House have already started their roles by participating in Student College Council meetings and organizing house events.
