2015-<strong>2016</strong> began with <strong>Cranford</strong> Community<br />
College playing host to the annual Goan Festival<br />
in July 2015 on a wonderful sunny day when<br />
12000 people from the Goan community attended<br />
to enjoy the fairground rides and sampling all<br />
the wonderful food from Goa whilst watching<br />
the fantastic entertainment. This was the fifth<br />
year the festival had been held at <strong>Cranford</strong> and<br />
everyone had a really great time<br />
Duke of Edinburgh <strong>2016</strong><br />
Margaret Macmillan<br />
in 1925 stated that<br />
“the best classroom and the<br />
richest cupboard is roofed<br />
only by the sky”. Being a part of the Duke<br />
of Edinburgh award both in WFactor and on<br />
weekend trips illustrates the sheer need for<br />
our students to experience learning outdoors.<br />
In a world where the air is thick with<br />
technology the Duke of Edinburgh award<br />
allows students to go back to basics and learn<br />
skills that have often been forgotten in these<br />
modern times. The three part structure of<br />
the Duke of Edinburgh award, Volunteering,<br />
Physical and Skills require students to<br />
balance their time and often get involved in<br />
things that they would previously have not<br />
thought of. Volunteering in an<br />

Throughout the year we have hosted many<br />
community, religious, pre-wedding events and<br />
birthday parties; it’s great to see the community<br />
making the most of our facilities and every<br />
weekend the school is a hub of activity and<br />
celebrations as are most evenings of the week.<br />
Sport plays a huge role in the community events<br />
and daily activities on site. The big news on the<br />
sporting side was the arrival and opening of the<br />
<strong>Cranford</strong> SuperDome where many of our existing<br />
football teams have enjoyed using the new<br />
facility. QPR continues to work in partnership<br />
with us with children of all ages using our<br />
extensive sports facilities. In addition BA held<br />
their annual softball tournament and the London<br />
Eagles had a junior football tournament that was<br />
enjoyed by all.<br />
Additional opportunities have arisen working<br />
with local companies like Sky who have used the<br />
Dome as a venue for filming. On one occasion<br />
we had two famous footballers Oscar and Lamela<br />
come in to do some filming with Dude Perfect a<br />
YouTube sensation. To see more go to:<br />

activities already planned for the new year.<br />
