​
Verse 1
8 o'clock the late bell rings.
Down the hall a choir sings,
Everyone has got a place to be.
Now it's time for history class.
In the hall you need a pass.
My sketch is hanging in our Gallery.
​
Bridge
There is so much to remember
and so many things to do.
Names and faces rush on by,
Will they remember you?
Special friends and teachers
Each see us in their way.
What can we take with us at the end of the day?
​
Chorus
There is a place that will always be there,
Where there are people who show you they care.
We live and learn
And round every turn
Together we're growing day by day.
​
1st Ending
There is a place that I feel I belong.
Where I know then I'm right and I know when I'm wrong.
The times that we've had, the good and the bad,
Will remind me of Glenfield.
​
Verse 2
School is done, I'm on my way.
Think of what I did today!
Prime Time had the early morning news.
Jazz Band, Science, Math and Dance.
In Gym today I took that chance.
The paper asked me for my point of view.
​
2nd Ending
But when I move along and time marches on,
I'll always have Glenfield.
02
Sing the Glenfield School Song
Mr. Gill has made it his mission to resurrect the Glenfield School song and sings it on any occasion he can. Record a video of yourself singing the school song for Mr. Gill.

Long may She live.
Nestling under her maples.

So, shout for Glenfield School
The greatest school of all.
