SNOW IS FALLING!

We've had a slight dusting of snow at the school, we are open as usual. The children can wear their own clothes to school today to layer up in the colder weather.

Cold Weather Update:

Due to the below freezing temperatures predicted today and tomorrow; children will be able to wear their own clothes so that they can layer up.

Please take care when travelling to school due to potential icy patches.

Earlier this year, ITV contacted us about taking part in their TV show 'Makeaway Takeaway'. Of course, being Gray's Farm, we were thrilled and jumped at the chance. On Thursday 3rd November our segment will be airing on the CITV channel at 6pm.

We express our deepest sympathies for the passing of HM Queen Elizabeth II. Her dedication to the UK, other realms & territories is unparalleled and we thank her for her service. Gray's Farm will observe the mourning period but continue to support our pupils, families and staff.

We would also like to say a massive well done as they leave Gray's Farm exceeding the National averages in every SATs category this year!

We wish you all the best in your new schools!
