School makes it snow for its students
A school has brought its own Christmas cheer for the students in a very festive way.
Reigate Grammar School created its very own snow day by importing industrial snow machines into the playground of the Reigate Road school for the last break time of the year.
Students enjoyed hot chocolate and donuts as they scampered after the snowflakes pumped into the air before a final assembly featuring a Latin translation of Disney’s “Let it go” from Frozen sung by first form girls.
Shaun Fenton, Headmaster said:
‘We were all slightly gutted to be the only corner of the country to miss out on snow days so we made some! And, then we rounded off the snowy celebrations with what we believe was the world premiere performance of Let it Go in Latin. What a fun way to close out a wonderful term.’
In a tweet the headmaster also showed just how much fun the students were able to have.
So @ReigateGrammar pupils were so sad to miss out on the snow days this week … we imported an industrial snow machine for the last day of term – with donuts and hot chocolate on tap! @surreymirror @ISParent pic.twitter.com/WQdVHFOYMz

It is an amazing way to celebrate the end of their students journey as they head to secondary school.
Assistant head Mr Chris McGivern of St Margaret’s CE Primary School said:
“The students and staff have all worked INCREDIBLY hard to create an actual film, nearly 50 minutes long!”
It took the students months to make and they celebrated by having a premiere at Crawley’s Cineworld.
