We are pleased to advertise the forthcoming Virtual Speech Day at Derby Grammar School. Obviously a normal day is out of the question so the school is doing what it can for its students.
The following has been received so please try and tune in if you can:
Dear valued guest,
We are delighted to invite you to our first ever virtual Speech Day event next Friday 3 July at 2pm.
With the current state of affairs and restrictions on public gatherings, we have decided to do an online event to round both the term and academic year off in a celebratory manner. We will be live streaming our usual speeches, musical performances and award ceremony and would love for you to join us by clicking the following link next Friday afternoon from 1:45pm:

As you can appreciate, our usual September event involves almost 1000 people congregated at the Riverside venue and unfortunately bookings for mass gatherings are prohibited at present. However, we did not want to miss out on arguably the most significant date in our school calendar and so once restrictions on gatherings begin to lift we hope to supplement our virtual Speech Day with a celebratory event in the Autumn where our prize winners announced on Friday 3rd July can physically receive their prizes and we can bid farewell to our Year 13 pupils in style.
We look forward to you joining us next Friday, and if you have any questions in the meantime please don't hesitate to contact us.
Many thanks and best wishes,
Georgie Lazzari
Head of Marketing and Development
