The Greenfield International School was founded by our Chairman, M.Sadayappan, a Non-Resident Indian and his wife, Ms.Prabha Sadayappan in the year 2012. In order to give back to the society what he had gained through his hard work and diligence, he decided to start a CBSE school with an International flavour, in his native place, Dharapuram, so that many more children could be mentored and nurtured to dream of reaching out to the skies, just like him.
With an inspiring motto such as ‘Strive to excel with integrity’, the school has grown from strength to strength since its inception, under the guidance of our Chairman and a team of professional educators, equally passionate about the cause of education , providing holistic education at an affordable cost.
The school began with just 100 students and secured its affiliation to CBSE in the year 2015. The first batch of 10th Graders from GFIS graduated in 2018 and the first batch of 12th Graders 2022.
In the next three years, GFIS wants to grow the school to three times its size with all the 21st century amenities in place at the school.
Our Mission
To provide a world-class education at an affordable cost.
Our Vision
We believe that education is the key to unlocking the potential of every individual, and we are committed to providing an inclusive, safe, and nurturing environment that promotes excellence, equity, and social justice.
Holistic Learning
A complete education develops the child in all seven domains: spiritual, mental, social, natural, emotional, creative, and physical.
Harmonious Learning Environment
Children learn best in an environment that is physically and emotionally safe. We provide a secure learning environment by giving students the daily structure they need to feel grounded, with the flexibility to drive inspiration.
Creativity and Critical thinking
While there is a place for memorization and rote learning, critical thinking is the foundation for building the future. Students must know how to build hypotheses, observe, and evaluate which in turn leads to problem-solving. Furthermore, children learn decision-making and leadership skills by exercising a voice in the classroom.
Empathy & Compassion
For people around us and Nature. The learning environment extends into the natural world and into the greater community, with children spending as much time outside as
possible. Children who have a relationship with nature will take care of it.
We build character and compassion through service to the larger community. The development of values is the most important lesson.
Experiential Learning
We inspire and empower through discovery, using experiential learning, and real-world opportunities. In order to build confidence, students take risks and meet
increasingly difficult challenges. Learning from failure teaches problem-solving and perseverance.
Health & Wellness
Healthy habits, in and out of the classroom, help children learn and grow into healthy adults. Physical education and kin aesthetic learning are integrated into the curriculum. A safe learning environment builds confidence.
