An amazing start to this term with our first ever Grove Culture Week organised by our Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Committee. It was a huge success with a lot of engagement from both pupils and staff celebrating their place of origin.
Our boarders baked cakes for the bake sale, and provided an excellent service helping other pupils and staff write their names in Mandarin. There was a lot of excitement around our Bollywood dancing and the highlight of the week was our cultural fashion show, which celebrated the many nations represented at The Grove and their cultural dress.
Pupils and staff also took this opportunity to mark their place of origin on a world and UK map, it was incredible to see how extensively we covered the globe!
This was an extremely well supported event, particularly enjoyed by our international boarders, and created a real buzz around school, starting interesting conversations about heritage and culture.
