HDRA
co-ordinates repairs to Heather Drive (a private road) together with
related lighting, signs, drainage and insurance, all of which are paid
for by the residents. It also promotes a neighbourly spirit, and keeps
watch out for building development which could be detrimental.

Heatherside Church was established in 1977 by a group from St. Paul's Camberley who saw the need for a Christian presence on the estate. When plans for the area were originally made, the intention was to have a community centre and church separately. After some discussion the suggestion was made to combine the two in one building as both parties were there to service the needs of the area. So it was in 1981 that the Heatherside Community Centre and Church was opened.

The church's role is very much intertwined with the community. We still use Heather Ridge School (where we first started meeting in 1977) on a Sunday morning for our childrens work, and we produce a joint publication with the Community Association called Newslink three times a year. There is now a church office in the centre to provide information and support.

The church itself is ecumenical, serving all denominations on the estate, but with an Anglican/Methodist base.

High Cross is an "evangelical" United Reformed/Methodist Church and offers you a warm welcome. At High Cross, we offer a wide range of church services, an active Junior Church for children of all ages and a variety of mid-week activities. Full details can be found in our Church Magazine Crosstalk which is published monthly. We hope that High Cross Church can play its part in helping you to enjoy discovering the life which God offers us through Jesus Christ and that you will find your involvement to be both exciting and rewarding.

Friendly welcoming Parish Church for Lyne & Longcross.

What makes Luckley-Oakfield special?

On arrival at Open mornings, visitors often ask “What makes Luckley-Oakfield special?” By the time they have finished looking around the school, seen glimpses of lessons in action and talked to some of our staff and pupils, our visitors have discovered for themselves what makes Luckley-Oakfield so special. 

One prospective parent at our recent Open Day registered her daughter there and then, saying “I have looked at a few other schools in the area that have had more glitz and glam, but when you scratch beneath the surface, they don’t have the heart of Luckley”. And that says it all; Luckley is a small, warm and welcoming school, with a big heart. Our strong Christian ethos radiates throughout the school; bringing traditional family values and morals to the forefront of everything we do.

Our girls thrive and really do achieve their full academic potential. Our small class sizes and tailored teaching programmes ensure that each girl is given the very best teaching and support that she needs to obtain the best grades that she possibly can.

Our results speak for themselves with 100% pass rate at A-Level in 2011, with 89% achieving A*/B grades. All of our Sixth Form leavers secured places at their chosen university.  Our GCSE students also excelled, with 58% A*/A grades and all students achieving at least 5 GCSE A*-C including English and Mathematics.

Our school transport service brings many of our day girls in from across Berkshire, Hampshire and Surrey and offers two end of day collection times to facilitate participation in extended day activities.

So what makes Luckley-Oakfield special?  Come along to our Open Morning or arrange an individual visit and experience the “heart of Luckley” for yourself.

 Prospective parents can either make an appointment to visit the school or can attend an Open Days on Wednesday 20^h March 2012 or Wednesday 2nd May 9.30am – 12 noon.
