South Parade Primary School is a school in Great Grimsby, North East Lincolnshire. It opened in the mid-1890s and remains open to this day.
The construction of South Parade began in 1876 in the town of Great Grimsby. It was first built with concrete slabs but around 1900 it was built with red sandstone bricks. It was built just over the Freshney River on Fildes Street, not far from Freshney Place.
In World War II the school was bombed by Nazi Germany. Two teachers died in the school bombing and the entire east end of the school was destroyed. Two other school children died when Fildes Street was bombed. One of the children, Peter Burgundy, was crushed by a falling chimney and the other, John Harrison, died when a bomb hit his bedroom window. The east end of the school was rebuilt in 1953, once the war was over. It was also extended, and now a black hut stands next to it.
The school officially became a primary school on September 4, 2007. It was previously a nursery, a junior school and an infant school. On September 11 of every year, the school holds a two minute silence commemorating the 9/11 attacks. It also holds one minute silences on D-Day to remember the lives of the men who died in World War II.
