Grandfriends Day

This event is an opportunity for students to share their classroom experiences with their grandparents and members of their extended families. This was the largest-ever Grandfriends Day event at Greenwood and it was a special day for everyone.

The day began with breakfast in the Lodge. The school cafe provided our guests and students with delicious pastries and treats. While they enjoyed light snacks and refreshments, students and their grandfriends caught up and enjoyed each other’s company until organized tours of our expanded and renovated building began.

We also held a special assembly in our new performance theatre where grandfriends were treated to a variety of student talent, including a short video clip from this year’s Junior Play, The Lion King Jr.; a choir performance of Fleetwood Mac’s “Landslide”; and jazz performances of “I Want You Back” and “Everybody Needs Somebody to Love.”

The event was a huge success thanks to our teachers and staff, cafe staff, and the student ambassadors and volunteers who provided informative tours for our grandfriends. Many thanks to all involved – we couldn’t have done it without you.

We especially thank the grandfriends who joined us.  We hope to see you next year!
