Bring your grandparents to class at Seaford College Prep School

The school welcomed about 90 of its pupils’ grandparents to Grandparents’ Day, to enjoy an afternoon tour of the college followed by tea, scones and cakes. 

Sebastian Rees, Head of Seaford College Prep School, said: “Families and extended families play a big part in college life and this is our chance to invite them to see what we do, the facilities we offer and the sort of events and activities that we put on.” 

The grandparents spent the afternoon on a tour of their grandchildren’s classrooms and meeting their class teachers before taking a leisurely stroll around the stunning school grounds. 

The day was rounded off by Seaford’s catering staff, who provided drinks, homemade chocolate éclairs, lemon drizzle cake and scones with cream and jam. 

Mr Rees added: “Our children were very proud to show grandparents their school, and our grandparents were equally proud of what the children have achieved here. 

“We look forward to welcoming them to future events.”
