Greendown opened its doors for the annual 2-night open evening for parents of children in years 5 and 6 last Tuesday and Wednesday. It was another successful event with over 400 children and parents visiting.
The parents were welcomed by members of the senior leadership team and then guided around the departments of the school by student mentors who chose to give up their evenings to volunteer. Parents and children saw the Science department carry out experiments, PE demonstrating Badminton and Hockey and ICT let the children loose on the new computers.
Angela Proctor, Primary Liaison at Greendown, planned the evenings and was very pleased with the outcome. “You always know they have been successful when the parents have a smile on their face, the children are excited at the end of it and the staff are tired from all the hard days work!”
If you missed the open evening and wish to take a look round at Greendown please contact Angela Proctor on (01793) 874224.
