Young Voices 2025

Leave a comment

We really enjoyed performing at the Young Voices Concert on Thursday 6th February. The atmosphere in the Co-op Live Arena during the afternoon and evening was amazing, as our choir sang alongside 8000 other children!

During the rehearsal, we also performed a medley of Bob Marley’s songs – this formed part of a world-wide performance to mark Bob Marley’s 80th Birthday.

Well done to all our children – we are so proud of you!

As well as celebrating Bob Marley’s birthday, we also helped Mrs Newall to celebrate hers – we are very lucky that she chose to spend her special day with us at the arena!

We managed to surprise Mrs Newall with a tiny birthday cake!

On Friday 26th April, our KS2 Choir and all the children who have music tuition treated us to a concert. Our children played various instruments – piano, guitar, cornet, trumpet and tenor horn, each performing a piece on their own.

Well done to all our children and thank you to our (very large) audience of parents and families – your support is very much appreciated!

On Monday 5th February, our choir sang at the AO Arena, Manchester alongside 8000 other children in the Young Voices Concert.

All the children in our choir have worked very hard to learn all the songs and their efforts were rewarded on Monday evening. We are all extremely proud of them – they sang so well and a fantastic time was had by all at this very special event.

Thank you to all our parents and families who supported us and all those who helped the choir along the way.

Here are photographs and videos of our afternoon and evening at the Arena:

All our choir’s hard work in rehearsals over the past few months paid off at our spectacular Young Voices Concert on Friday. We were amongst 8351 children who performed at Manchester Arena as part of ‘The Largest School Choir Concerts in the World’.

We are extremely proud of our children’s fantastic singing, their super dance moves and their impeccable behaviour during the rehearsal and concert at the Arena. Here are some photographs and video from our amazing day – a truly memorable experience for all of us!

Artsmark Award For Grosvenor Road

Leave a comment

We are very pleased to announce that we have been awarded the prestigious Artsmark Silver Award.

Artsmark is Arts Council England’s award for schools and education settings who champion cultural education, celebrating settings that embrace the arts across the curriculum.

Our Silver Award shows how the school is skilled in unlocking the potential of our children, developing their character and talent, and increasing their knowledge and understanding across the wider curriculum.

The award has been achieved over a three year period, led by Mrs Heys and Mrs Peacock, together with our Art Subject Leader Mrs Moran and our Music Subject Leader Mrs Newall. We look forward to continuing to promote the arts and a wider curriculum at Grosvenor Road, giving our children a range of opportunities and experiences in school and out in the wider community.
