Welcome from Co-op Academy Grove

We are thrilled to share this very first edition of our academy newsletter with you. We hope you enjoy reading it each week and watching it grow as we find new ways to celebrate our children and share school updates.

First up ... next week is an extra special week for football and breakfast lovers!

To celebrate the World Cup, anyone who attends our free breakfast club on any day next week is invited to come dressed in:

Their favourite football kits
Or sporty outfits

We will also have a themed menu each day (in addition to your usual):

Monday represents Turkey with Yogurt
Tuesday represents Germany with bread, cheese and ham
Wednesday represents America with pancakes
Thursday represents France with croissants
Friday represents England with a firm favourite – cheesy oatcakes.

So come along, get fuelled up for the day, and show your team spirit!

Is it coming home? ⚽🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Build updates

Project Toilets Update

Work is well underway! We are so proud of the children for adapting to our new routines and using the new facilities so well. The week has passed without a 'splash!' – the internal screens are up and demolition has officially begun. Our builders even had time for a quick photo :)

Roof & Hall Updates

We have some great news regarding the roof: no more leaks! While there are still a few investigations to be done, the best part is that the hall is finally back in use! Just in time for our Y6 leavers assembly, prom and much more!
