Welcome to a tour of Greenfylde School

This is the front view of the school as seen from the Silver Street entrance. Visitors should please come in through the front door and someone will help you as soon as possible.

Wheelchair users will find a bellpush by the front door. Please ring this and staff will help you as soon as we can.

The school has done a great deal of work in recent years to improve access for persons with a disability. We wish the school to be as open and inclusive as possible.

This shows the main building from the rear, and our large playground.

We are fortunate to have such a lovely large site in the heart of the town. The building used to be Ilminster Boys' Grammar School and is very attractive.

The school has no parking facilities unfortunately, and visitors will need to use the public car park at the rear of the school (off Canal Way). The gates into the school are locked during the school day, for security reasons, and visitors will need to walk around to Silver Street and the front entrance.

This is our hall. It used for dining by Years Reception, 1 and 2 at lunchtimes. It is also used regularly for P.E. and Collective Worship.

Most children bring packed lunches to school. However, cooked school meals are available. please ask at the school for details. These meals are cooked at Swanmead School and brought down daily.

Collective Worship (often referred to as Assembly) is a special time daily when we get together in a group and consider things that are of importance to us. As a Church of England School, our Collective Worships are based around the church year and the Christain faith. We do a lot of work on other faiths and beliefs as well however.

We have a small library area which children use regularly. Books are highly valued by the school and a joy of reading encouraged.

A small computer suite is also in the library and is well used by all classes, mostly in groups. The computers are networked and children can access the internet to find out information.

 

 

The school has a small garden plot next to the pond area. A very keen Year 3 and 4 Gardening Club look after this, growing a variety of organic fruit and vegetables.

 

In 2009, our school garden won first prize in the Communal garden section of Ilminster in Bloom.
