WELCOME BACK

Greenfaulds High School welcomes back all staff and pupils after the summer holidays.

NEW SESSION: First Year Pupils

The start of the school year has begun particularly smoothly with Greenfaulds welcoming the new first year pupils to the school. All the new pupils seem to have settled quickly and well into the school’s daily routine. With all new pupils looking extremely smart in their new uniforms the school would like to thank parents for their support in promoting a positive ethos by helping enforce the school’s dress code.

ENGLISH DEPARTMENT

The English Department would like to make young writers aware of a great opportunity to develop their own creative skills and meet others who share their interests. For more information, please visit https://www.thestoryis.co.uk/about/. We would love to know if you decide to get involved!

Parents and Carers are also welcome to check out the ‘Parent Zone’ page of the English Department’s website for information on course structures and assessment, as advice with how to help with Critical Writing at home. Supplementary homework tasks are also available on the site.
