Introducing the Values Vendor at Grove School!

We’re excited to launch our brand-new initiative the Values Vendor designed to celebrate students who truly live out our five core values:

💫 Excellence 💫 Integrity 💫 Creativity 💫 Empathy 💫 Equality

In just one month, the Values Vendor has already vended over 300 prizes to students who’ve been recognised in real time for their incredible actions from showing kindness to a peer, going the extra mile in class, to demonstrating honesty and fairness. These moments now earn a token of appreciation that students can redeem instantly!

Keep living the values - you never know when the Values Vendor might reward you next!

🎭 A Magical Performance to Remember!

We couldn’t be prouder of the talented students from Sir John Talbot’s School and The Grove School plus some children from other local schools who lit up the stage in Beauty & The Beast JR, directed by the brilliant team at Whitchurch Amateur Operatic and Dramatic Society.

From the very first note to the final bow, their energy, teamwork and talent were simply outstanding.

The audience clearly agreed – with standing ovations and thunderous applause at every show!

A huge well done to everyone involved for bringing this classic tale to life with such heart and flair.

🗳️🎉 Election Fever at Grove School! 🎉🗳️

Last week, democracy came alive at Grove as students headed to the polls in our first ever school-wide election to choose a Prime Minister and the excitement was real!

With 11 passionate candidates representing all year groups (and Sixth Form stepping into the role of our House of Lords), the campaign trail was full of manifestos, action plans, and inspiring ideas.

The result? A phenomenal 96.4% turnout and over 800 votes cast! 🙌

We’re thrilled to announce that our newly elected Prime Minister is Bobby Allen in Year 9!

We can’t wait to work with Bobby and the student parliament to amplify student voice, drive positive change, and shape a truly memorable inaugural year of leadership at Grove.

🗳️ Democracy in Action at Grove School! 🇬🇧

Yesterday was a landmark moment for Grove School as we held our very first School Parliament Prime Minister Election! The gym was transformed into a buzzing polling station, giving students a real taste of democratic participation.

Over the past few weeks, our candidates showed incredible passion and creativity, crafting manifestos, sharing action plans, and campaigning with heart. With an outstanding 96.4% turnout and 804 votes cast, Team Grove truly embraced the spirit of civic responsibility.

A huge thank you to our special guests, Jane Trowbridge, High Sheriff of Shropshire, and Tim Mantom, Mayor of Market Drayton, for joining us on this inspiring day aligned with Youth Awareness Day across the county.

We’ve announced the results to students today and will be sharing a welcome message from our newly elected PM very soon! 🎉
