Day for Change: Helping Syrian children

This week, we have been bringing in our spare (or collected) change to help Syrian refugees. Click the image below for more information from a Junior lesson and see how we've celebrated our support for children in danger.

We hope to have raised around £200 for this good cause. Thankyou to Miss Bennett for organising and promoting this good cause and to those who have been able to support.

Sports Fusion Football Tournament

The Y3/4 football team recently participated in their second football tournament this year at Brixton Community Sports Centre.  The pupils played a league format and then qualified for the 'Challenge' cup.  



The team were facing Hillmead B team in the quarter-finals, resulting in a 1-1 draw during regular time.  Penalties had to decide the match and Griffin were triumphant, eventually winning the game 2-1 on penalties.  
Unfortunately, Hillmead were to get their revenge through their A team in the semi finals, beating Griffin 3-0.


The pupils worked hard, gained a lot of experience and were well behaved throughout the day.

Kind regards,
Walter Mendoza
PE Co-ordinator and Health & Well-being Leader

Rhino assembly is 'just right'

Year 1's Rhino class delivered a lovely assembly last week, recounting the story of Goldilocks through acting and a succession of excellent songs. We had a range of performing voices, all the way from loud Daddy Bear to quieter Baby Bear, resulting in a performance that was 'just right.'
Well done, Rhinos!
