At Heathfield, we believe in building foundations within our local community to encourage our girls to participate as citizens. As part of the girls’ development, and to enhance their leadership skills, we have built links with sections of the community. We also have a partnership with Alexandra Special School in Harrow, revolving around swimming and other extra-curricular activities, and another partnership with the Sacred Heart High School in Harrow for Mandarin and leadership activities.
Activities range from organising Christmas parties, reading partnerships, sharing facilities, Remembrance Day, Year 5 Arts Day, Year 6 PE Workshop Day, Prep Schools Music Day, Maths Master Classes, art displays and coffee mornings for senior citizens, as well as a Community Service programme for all year 12 students and our programme of outreach classes run on Saturday mornings and weekday evenings.
Most importantly, our sports facilities and swimming pool are available for use out of hours through a club membership scheme. From 2008, our Sixth Form students will take part in a programme of community service and voluntary work.

Have you always wanted your children to learn a new language, or maybe you have always wanted to learn Mandarin? We are offering a range of different language classes including, French, German, Japanese, Italian, Spanish and Arabic for children and Mandarin for children and adults. The children’s classes are on Saturday mornings and the adult beginners’ mandarin on Tuesday evenings. Dance classes also started in April 2009.
