• Year 6 Leavers' Assembly

  Fri 19 Jul 2019

  On Friday we said goodbye to our Year 6 class of 2019. Some of the children have been with us for 8 years having started with us in Nursery, while others had become part of the Greswold family as the year group moved through the school. Year 6 put on an emotional leavers' assembly demonstrating their talents, with poems, songs from their Revolting Children show and two songs played on the ukulele. We were also delighted to welcome Councillor Stuart Davis the Mayor of Solihull to the assembly. He helped Mrs Scott to present the yearbooks to each of the children. Year 6 - you did your parents proud. We wish you every success for the future.

   

  You can watch a shortened version of the the Leavers' Assembly on the website here or children in Year 6 can watch or download the full version here by logging in using their solgrid email address and password.
