• Snow update - Greswold closed on Monday 11/12/17

  Sun 10 Dec 2017
  Given the Met Office Amber Weather Warning, police advice to minimise travel, the likelihood of treacherous roads and the possibility of not being able to provide an adequate level of staffing for our children’s safety, it is with much regret that the decision has been made to close Greswold and the other schools nearby on Monday 11th December. We will continue to update you with regard to Tuesday.

• Year 4 Roald Dahl Day

  Thu 07 Dec 2017
  Pupils in Year 4 enjoyed a phizz-whizzing day all themed around the author Roald Dahl.

• Year 5 Ancient Greek Day

  Fri 01 Dec 2017
  Pupils from Year 5 stepped back in time to Ancient Greece for a special day of learning. Children (and staff) dressed up in suitable costumes and looked fantastic - well done parents. There was lots to do during the day and the children enjoyed tasting Greek food and making Greek temples. The children even got to try some Greek dancing! 

  

• Year 2 visit to St Alphege Church

  Fri 01 Dec 2017
  Children from Year 2 were invited to St Alphege Church in Solihull to learn about the Christmas story. It was a chilly morning for the walk to the church and we were made to feel very welcome by Linda and her team when we arrived. The children enjoyed finding out about the different parts of the story and the different people involved. They also got to meet Joseph and Mary with their baby. Many thanks to everyone at St Alphege and to the parents who helped us with the visit.

  

• Sharing Christmas decorations

  Wed 29 Nov 2017
  For the last few weeks the children have been busy making decorations for this year's PTA competition. Each year group had a different theme and today the children got to show off their creations to a different class. There was lots of creativity on show and it was great to see the older and younger children mixing up and talking about how they made their decorations. Many thanks parents for your support in this activity.
