w/c Monday 19 January 2026 – Week B

We have raised £4,288 so far with your support. Help us go further.

As we prepare to celebrate 50 years of Denefield in September 2026, we are inviting our community to help us build a lasting legacy for our students.

Government funding covers the essentials, but it does not provide the extras that enhance students’ experience of school. To mark this milestone, we have launched the Denefield 50 Appeal, with a goal of raising £50,000 to improve student spaces, sports facilities and enrichment opportunities. The School Council will help to prioritise how the funds are used.

Thanks to the generous support of our parents/carers, we have already raised £4,288. This is a fantastic start, and with continued support we can go even further.

Examples of possible improvements include additional outdoor seating and covered social areas, updates to sports facilities, and further investment in extra-curricular clubs.

Every contribution matters. Regular monthly donations of £5, £20 or £100 help us plan ahead, and one-off donations are equally valued. Together, these contributions will support both our current students and those who will join Denefield in the future.

Denefield Futures Fair

This week all students from Year 9 to 13 were able to visit our Futures Fair, where they met a variety of employers, universities, apprenticeship providers, colleges and sixth forms.  This was a valuable experience for our students to engage with organisations and start to learn more about the world of work, study and the wider world.
