🎙️✨ Off-timetable and on the mic for Grange Week!
RGS The Grange hit pause on normal lessons to kick off our annual Grange Week celebrations in style, and what a start it was!
Years Four and Five pupils enjoyed an incredible day of podcasting, diving far beyond just developing their oracy skills. Within minutes, they were working like true audio professionals layering tracks, making precise edits, and even using automation to duck background volume.
It was fantastic to see such confidence, creativity and technical skill on display. We can’t wait to hear the finished podcasts!

✨🎓 A Magical Celebration of Year Six at RGS The Grange 🎓✨
We came together to celebrate our wonderful Year Six pupils and the wider school community in a truly special event, filled with reflection, gratitude and a touch of magic.
With a magical theme throughout, we were delighted to welcome our guest speaker, Afshan Azad, best known for playing Padma Patil in the Harry Potter films. She shared an inspiring message about kindness, taking risks and embracing new opportunities, reminding us all that you are never too old to try something new.
The celebration began beautifully with a performance from our Wind Band, followed by a lovely performance from the Year Six Choir, showcasing the talent and dedication of our pupils .
Our Head Boy and Head Girl then delivered heartfelt speeches, reflecting on their time at The Grange and what they are most thankful for, before proudly handing over their roles to the next generation of pupil leaders.
A truly memorable occasion and a fitting tribute to our fantastic Year Six, well done to all involved!

🕰️🧪 The Great Plague – Year Two Learning
Year Two have been stepping back in time to 1666 in their Topic lessons, exploring life during the Great Plague and discovering how people believed they could protect themselves.
The children had great fun designing their own fictional plague potions, choosing ingredients such as garlic, cloves, rosemary and onions, just like people might have done centuries ago!
To bring their learning to life, they created their very own fragrant plague pouches, using a pestle and mortar to grind together lavender, rosemary, cinnamon, cloves and rose petals. A hands-on and memorable way to experience history from over 350 years ago!

💦🏆 It’s a Knockout – Year Six Tradition! 🏆💦
Another year, another epic It’s a Knockout! Our Year Six pupils had an unforgettable time taking on the famous Grange tradition, a fun-filled, wet and wonderfully chaotic assault course to round off Grange Week in style.
With laughter, teamwork and a lot of splashing, the pupils threw themselves into every challenge, cheered on by the rest of the school in a fantastic show of support. The energy and excitement made it a truly special way to celebrate their final days at The Grange
Well done Year Six, you were brilliant!

🏊♀️🏃♂️ Making a splash at the Aquathlon!
On Friday afternoon, a team of Year Five and Six pupils travelled to WatersEdge Lake in Bishampton for an exciting Aquathlon.
The challenge? A 50m open-water swim followed by a 1km run!
For some pupils, it was their very first experience of open-water swimming, while others enjoyed the opportunity to build their confidence in multi-sport events. Every pupil embraced the challenge with determination, resilience and plenty of enthusiasm.
With sunshine, smiles and lots of encouragement, it was a fantastic afternoon and a memorable experience for everyone involved.
A thank you to King’s Hawford for the warm welcome and for organising such a brilliant event.
