We will still post some updates over the holidays if we receive any new information but in the mean time we just want to say a massive thank you to all of our staff, pupils, parents and carers for their support in what has been a challenging time. Team Grove 💙
Tonight would have been Final Fling - we wish we could be celebrating with our S6 Pupils & reminiscing on their time at Grove over the years, sadly we can’t but we want all of our S6’s to know we are thinking of them and the final fling committee are working hard to reschedule.
Very pleased to finally welcome the Senior Captaincy Team, actually assembled together for the first time! Congratulations and good luck to all.
School Cpts: Monty & Angie.
Vice Cpts: Fraser, Ross, Kaci, Elise & Sally.
