Today we are celebrating Her Majesty’s long and glorious life. Our students observing the silence in her honour, followed by a speech by Candida Cave on Her Majesty the Queen Elizabeth II and her legacy.

Since September 2021 we have raised £12,522.17 for charity through various events:

 In October 2021 we raised £1882.75 for Liberty’s Legacy, a charity nominated by our student council to raise funds for the Bone Cancer Research Trust.

In December 2021, we hosted a Christmas Jumper day which raised a phenomenal £6,026 for Crisis at Christmas thanks to kind contributions of parents students and staff.

Students crafted 160 hand-made Christmas cards for the elderly in Camden who live alone. The cards were delivered along with a hot dinner on Christmas day.

We hosted a staff V student football match in March 2022 raising £1735 for The Mark Paterson Trust.

Staff and Students dressed up as their cultural icons in June and hosted a lunch/bake sale which raised £2878.42 for UNICEF.

This coming Autumn Term we will be supporting UCKG HelpCentre. They are a local charity with their Headquarters in Finsbury Park, North London who at the beginning of the Pandemic, opened a soup kitchen and food bank in response to the difficulties faced by several members of our local community. They have now replicated the initiative in centres across London and the UK and now operate 22 food banks/soup kitchens across the country. With the cost of living crisis having a big impact on so many, so far this year, we feel it is a particularly important charity to support at this time.

A massive congratulations to our upper sixth students for their recent exhibition Metanoia, showcasing their talent with a collection of paintings, sculptures, photography, and textiles. The exhibition responded to the lack of support given to the creative industries during the recent COVID-19 pandemic.

We are very proud of our students who organised this exhibition independently, and it was a hugely enjoyable and successful evening.

Set Free From Art Foundations

“An Art foundation course is no longer the prerequisite to an Art and Design degree that it once was. Strong creative A-levels and a new emphasis on the quality of a candidate’s portfolio have changed entry requirements, explains Candida Cave, Principal of Hampstead Fine Arts College” Candida Cave, Insight Magazine, Issue 6
