  • Save the Rhino Fundraising Pack
    LL NE ON CD M H M IA N KE MATT BROO Save the Rhino Fundraising Pack KE MATT BROO N SO ES IE GG MA All about rhinos There are fi ve diff erent species of rhino, two from Africa and three from Asia. See below for a quick fact fi le of everything you’ll need to know about the diff erent species. African rhino species White Rhino Population: Between 19,666 and 21,085 Status: Near Threatened Range: South Africa, Botswana, Kenya, Namibia, Swaziland, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Uganda Fun fact: The white rhino is the largest of all rhino species and can weigh up to 3,000kg STEVE & ANNTOON More about the species: There are two subspecies of white rhino: the Southern white rhino and the Northern white rhino. 100 years ago, the Southern white rhino numbered just 50 individuals. Dedicated conservationists brought the species back from the brink of extinction, and they are now the most numerous of all rhino species. The Southern white rhino is mainly found in South Africa. Sadly, the Northern white rhino has fared much worse, and has been eradicated from throughout its range in the Democratic of Congo, Sudan and Uganda. It was declared extinct in the wild in 2011, with only two remaining Northern white rhinos in the entire world. Black Rhino Population: Between 5,040 and 5,458 Status: Critically Endangered Range: Botswana, Kenya, Malawi, Namibia, South Africa, Rwanda, Swaziland, Tanzania, Zambia, Zimbabwe Fun fact: Black rhinos tend to be solitary in the wild. They are also known for being shyer and more aggressive compared to white rhinos MATT BROOK More about the species: Between 1960 and 1995, the black rhino population declined by an estimated 97.6%, with numbers falling to a low of 2,410 in 1995.

  • Autumn Term 2015
    St. Anne’s Catholic High School for Girls AutumnDecember Bulletin 2015 IN THIS ISSUE • IN THIS ISSUE • IN THIS ISSUE • IN THIS ISSUE • IN THIS ISSUE • IN THIS ISSUE From the Headteacher Dear Parent/Carer, We have come to the end of another busy and successful term and I hope that you will enjoy reading about the many activities and events that have taken place since we started the school year in September. Year 7 students made a successful transition to secondary school and have already made a substantial contribution to many areas of school life. We are fortunate to have so many gifted and talented students and staff here at St Anne’s. I am delighted to report that the new Sixth Form Centre has been completed and our students will be able to use it at the start of next Term. The building will be officially opened by Cardinal Vincent Nichols on 19th January 2016 when he will celebrate Mass with us and bless the new building. As many of you will know, we had to take a loan out to finance some of this building work and so we are still fundraising for the new Centre. You can support us by ‘buying a brick’. Further information about the scheme can be found in this Bulletin. Finally, thank you, parents and carers, for the support you give to your daughters and to the school. I wish you and your families a happy and holy Christmas and I look forward to seeing all of our students on Tuesday 5th January 2016 at 8.40am for the start of the Spring Term.

C., the eldest of five children. My father was Edward Joseph Douthit. He had fought in the Confederate Army and been taken prisoner at the Battle of Spottslyvania Courthouse and sent with other Southerners to prison in Elmira, N. Y., where he suffered through a terrible winter. After he was released he and a buddy walked home to North Carolina and he became a farmer. When I was sixteen my mother passed away and I tried to take her place with the younger children which may be the reason they called me Sister Mary, though sometimes I was nicknamed Mamie.

Peter Anderson, Fundraising Manager I am delighted to have this opportunity to thank you all for helping to make Unwrapped 2007 the most successful Unwrapped year in Oxfam Ireland’s history. So far over €600,000/£445,597 has been raised – this is an increase of over 25% on last year! I had the privilege of visiting Northern Uganda in November 2007 and met local people who had directly benefited from last year’s Oxfam Unwrapped. I was deeply inspired by the courage and hope of the women, men and children I met, of whom many had been displaced from their homes and lived in camps for up to ten years. Over one million people have been forced to live in camps for internally displaced people in Northern Uganda due to a conflict between the government and the Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA) spanning the past 20 years. Now, with the prospect of peace in Uganda, they are beginning to return home and Oxfam Unwrapped gifts of livestock and the vegetable garden gift of seeds and tools have enabled them to return to their land and earn their own living after years of dependence on aid.
