• PTA Summer Fayre

  Sat 14 Jul 2018
  We had a fantastic summer day for this year's PTA Summer Fayre with the sun shining all afternoon. There was a wild west theme to the event which featured performances from each year group and the Animated Dance clubs. The food and drink stands were busy all day long dishing out refreshments. We also had plenty of games to play including panning for gold, splat the rat and feed the cowboy. Many thanks to everyone who came along to support and to the PTA for organising a wonderful fayre. All the money raised will support children here at Greswold.

• Year 6 perform Let's Rock

  Tue 10 Jul 2018

  The Bushell Hall was rocking this evening as Year 6 took to the stage to perform 'Let's Rock'. Based on the music of Queen, the story told of a bleak future when all music is made by computers. The children did a brilliant job with the acting, dancing and singing. There were plenty of familiar songs including Radio Gaga, I Want to Break Free and Another One Bites the Dust. The finale of We are the Champions got a huge response from the audience and everyone was left with smiles on their faces. 

   

  A big well done to Year 6 - you were real stars. Thank you to Miss Partridge, Hannah Lindsay, Mrs Foster, Miss Nock and all the other members of staff who made the evening possible.
