• School Football Team Success

  Thu 24 Jan 2019
  Greswold's school football team's successful start to the league season continued this evening with another two wins against fellow League Group 1 schools at Old Silhillians.  After winning their first league game of the season in November, the team completed a 7-2 win against Ulverley.  These results coupled with an automatic 5-0 win against Coppice due to a forfeited match means Greswold have a 100% record so far in this season's competition.  At the end of the season, the top two teams from each league will gain a place in the South Solihull Large Schools' Football League semi-finals.  With four more games to play, Greswold are in a very strong position.  Well done to all those involved and keep up the good work.

• Basketball teams in action again

  Tue 15 Jan 2019
  Greswold's two basketball teams played their latest round of league matches at Light Hall School in Shirley. Playing against other local schools, our teams did fantastically well. Team 1 won all three of their matches while Team 2 won two and lost one. The teams are currently placed first and second in the league - a great result. Well done!

  

• Mrs Scott's new Christmas jumper

  Thu 20 Dec 2018
  After the final design had been voted on by pupils, Mrs Cooper and her team had been busy creating a unique Christmas jumper for Mrs Scott to wear. In our penultimate assembly of 2018, the amazing jumper was revealed to the school - complete with baubles, tinsel and even working lights. Mrs Scott spent the rest of the day wearing the jumper and making the staff jealous that they didn't have one. Mr Hornsey has already requested his own 2019 Christmas jumper.

• Christmas parties

  Tue 18 Dec 2018
  With Christmas approaching, our children in Key Stage 1 had a festive treat at their traditional parties. The children enjoyed a disco in the Upper School Hall before heading back to the Lower School for party food. A great way to finish the Autumn term. Thanks to parents for sending in items for the buffet.

  

• Year 4 brass concert

  Fri 14 Dec 2018

  Since September, our Year 4 pupils have been learning to play brass instruments. Each week, Mr Bull and Mr Jones have been teaching the children and developing their musical skills. Year 4 got to perform to the rest of Key Stage 2 in a special assembly. As well as some of the songs they have been learning, they also snuck in a seasonal number as well. You can watch the performance here.

  

• PTA Christmas Fayre

  Sat 08 Dec 2018
  Our wonderful PTA did a great job organising Greswold's Christmas fayre. There was lots to do with games, face painting, raffles, hot food and even Santa in a new grotto. Children from Year 2 performed some festive songs with Mrs Jellicoe to get everyone into the festive spirit. A big thank you to everyone who supported the event through donations, helping to run the event or by attending. All the money raised goes back to supporting the pupils here at Greswold.

  

• Basketball League round one success

• Christmas has arrived at Greswold...

  Mon 03 Dec 2018
  Well done to all the children who entered this year's Christmas tree decoration competition. The kitchen staff had a really difficult job deciding the winners. Our wonderful PTA have decorated the two Christmas trees with the decorations from each year groups. You can see the trees if you come to the PTA Christmas Fayre this Saturday.
