FOGS Colour Run

FOGS marked the end of last half term with their fantastic Colour Run. It is the first time this event has been included in the FOGS calendar and, by all accounts, it was a brilliant success. Huge thanks for the FOGS team for setting up this new and very popular event!

Lion King

All the information about The Lion King performance can be found here. Hard copies of the letter were sent home last week with children.

This end of year show promises to be a wonderful opportunity for the whole school to come together and for the Year 6s to end their time at Grendon with a truly memorable performance.

Please return the reply slip no later than Friday 23rd June. At this time, first ticket allocations will be made and school will then begin to allocate addtional tickets based on your requests. 

If there are any parents who are willing and able to paint children's faces on the evening of the performance (between 5.30-6pm), please let the school office know!
