On the 15th of January the NHS Scotland Team will be in school to deliver the HPV vaccine to all S1 girls and boys along with the S2 girls booster immunisation. High uptake of the HPV vaccine has reduced levels of cancer-causing HPV in young women in Scotland by 90%. From academic year 2019/20, the HPV vaccine will be offered to S1 boys as well. Consent packs containing a letter, leaflet and consent form will be distributed to pupils and their parents/carers in advance of the first HPV immunisation session. Consent will only be asked for once, and this will cover all required doses of the vaccine.
The Social Justice Committee’s goal this year is to do what we can to help disadvantaged kids in the local community. So far we have managed to do this through raising money for Cash for Kids.

Please click on the link below to access the letter regarding the new online booking system for Parents’ Evening. This will be used for the S5/6 Parents Evening on the 21/11/19.
An Open Evening for pupils currently in P7 (and their families) will be held in Greenfaulds High School at 7.00pm on the evening of Thursday 24th October 2019.
This is an informal event and there is no need to inform the school in advance that you are coming. Pupils and their parents will “follow a timetable” which will allow you to see around the school and
meet teachers and pupils in different departments. You will find out about the curriculum and about the many other activities on offer to pupils.
Car parking will be available but the school is likely to be very busy on the evening so you are advised to come early. I look forward to seeing you on the 24th October but please do not hesitate to contact me in advance if you have specific queries or requirements.
The 21st-25th October is our ‘BE ON TIME’ FOCUS WEEK at Greenfaulds High School. All students should arrive at school by 08.50am ready to start Period 1 at 08.55am.
There is a clear link between good attendance/time keeping and fulfilling potential at school. The challenge is for our pupils to be on time every day! House points will be awarded to the House Group with the smallest number of lates.
