GREENFIELD SCHOOL IS A CHURCH SCHOOL
Our Christian ethos: nurture, inspire, flourish; underpinned by Jesus' mustard seed parable - the smallest of seeds when planted becomes the greatest of trees (Mt13v31-32). We nurture each other while growing in confidence, knowledge and character; we inspire creativity and support relationships and resilience to enable our community to flourish.
Greenfield is a Church of England School which means we have a close partnership with our local village church and the St Albans Diocese. We are proud of our church foundation and it is this which defines our ethos and makes our school distinctive. The cornerstone of all our work is our 'Values' based education which is embraced by the whole school community and encourages every child to develop into a caring, responsible, hardworking and positive person.
To allow our children time to reflect we have developed an area of peace and calm. Children may go there during play and lunchtimes. They often write prayers, read stories or snuggle down on a comfy sofa to take a moment of quiet in our busy world.
We enjoy visiting our parish churches. St James’ is the church in the village of Pulloxhill and St John the Baptist is located in Flitton. The children can often be seen walking to the church for services, art opportunities and to investigate local study projects. Both Parochial Church Councils welcome us into the churches and we continue to look for new and exciting ways of becoming involved.

All classes in the academy made poppy wreaths for our communities. Some of our children attended both Flitton Church and Pulloxhill Church at the remembrance services and laid the wreaths.
Thank you to all who took part.

Several of our children represented the academy at Flitton Church to celebrate and join in with the Harvest Festival. The children did an amazing job with readings about Harvest, a Harvest poem and a Harvest prayer. They even had the chance to take part in some acting with Jo Holt which was unexpected but very entertaining! Thank you to all of you who attended the service, it was wonderful to see you there.
