• Road Safety Competition Winners

  Fri 28 Nov 2014

  Greswold's Junior Road Safety Officers have been running a competition for pupils in Years 1 to 6. Children in Year 1 and 2 had to design a bright costume for a superhero which would help him be seen in the dark. Well done to Inaya and Isobel who were the winning entries and received a special pen as their prize.

   

  Pupils in Years 3 to 6 had to design a poster which encouraged road safety and use the caption 'Be bright, be seen'. There was a huge range of creative entries - thank you. Everyone who entered the competitions received furry bug mascot. Well done to Georgina, Kiran, Yusuf and Erin who were the winners. The year 3 and 4 winners won umbrellas while the Year 5 and 6 winners each received a special watch as their prize. You can see the winning entries below:

  

• Year 5 visit the National Space Centre

  Thu 20 Nov 2014

  Year 5 spent the day at the National Space Centre in Leicester to extend their learning about outer space. The children explored the different zones of the centre to learn about the Solar system, the universe and space exploration. They also watched a show about astronauts in the space theater and went on simulator ride to Saturn's moon of Titan. Many thanks to the parents who helped on the visit.

  

• Children in Need 2014

  Fri 14 Nov 2014
  Greswold looked very colourful today as children wore their own clothes to support this year's Children in Need appeal. We had pupils dressed as superheroes, some in Pudsey inspired clothing and others in casual wear. They paid £1 for the privilege, with all money being donated towards the charity. A big thank you to everyone who donated.

  

• Lest We Forget

  Tue 11 Nov 2014
  On Remembrance Sunday, two children from Year 6 laid a wreath at the war memorial in Solihull on behalf of Greswold. Our Year 6 pupils have been learning about World War I and the tradition of remembrance. In lessons they wrote poetry and created art work inspired by the hardships and tragedy of the war. The children also were responsible for selling poppies at break times on behalf of the British Legion. The whole school also came together on 11th September for a minutes silence and a chance to reflect.
