- One World Link “Parks and Pubs” Sponsored Walk
The Teachers Group of One World Link organised a sponsored walk in Warwick and Leamington on a fine September afternoon. The purpose was to raise funds for the One World Link-EducAid “Transforming Education in Bo” project. Sally Morris had devised an ingenious route that covered ten kilometres with hardly any roads. It was a great and worthwhile walk, taking most of us along paths we had no idea existed, and raising more than £3,000 for the project.
One World Link at Ecofest 2025
One World Link participated in the annual Ecofest organised by Warwick District Council. This has become an annual fixture and is a chance for OWL to share information about our work, reaffirm our commitment to being part of our local community here in Warwick and Leamington and – most importantly – engage with friends old and new. This year we took the opportunity to focus on the new EducAid project we are launching in Bo to support our linked schools.
Sponsored Walk for education in Bo – 6th September
We are fundraising for our education project ‘Transforming Education in Bo OWL Schools’. Come and enjoy a sociable and worthwhile sponsored walk around the area of Warwick and Leamington, starting at 1pm on Saturday, 6th September, at St Nicholas Park, Warwick. The project will help a selection of OWL link schools to raise standards in teaching and learning.
- Schools progressing with our EducAid project
The Bo project officially began on 15th September, 2025, to ensure that every student is IN school, SAFE, and actively LEARNING. Since its inception, we have engaged headteachers on the EducAid Top Ten Strategies for teaching and learning.
Data collection is underway on several fronts, including lesson observations and school scorecards assessing safety, attendance, community involvement, through lesson observations and school walkthroughs. We are already seeing evidence of the EducAid Top Ten Strategies in action across all five schools.Education update – a busy time in Bo
So much has been happening with OWL Education in both Bo and Warwick this year. We are excited and ready to start a new project with our partner organisation EducAid.: Ignite Bo 🔥- Transforming Education in Bo. Five OWL link schools have been selected and an EducAid coach/mentor recruited and already at work. Fund raising for the project is under way.
Transforming Education in Bo OWL Schools
Five One World Link schools in Bo will receive training and mentoring in a year-long programme. Working with EducAid, the aim is to improve teaching and learning, ensure higher levels of literacy and numeracy, reduce absenteeism and improve community involvement.
