Celebrating 50 Years of Denefield

1976-2026

In 2026, Denefield School will proudly celebrate 50 years of learning, growth and excellence. For five decades, our students and staff have shaped a school built on strong character values and a belief in success for life.

To help us mark this special occasion, we want to hear from those who have been part of Denefield’s journey. Whether you or someone you know is a former student, a long-serving member of staff, or a parent with stories to share, we would love to hear from you.

We are looking for memories, photos, videos, stories, achievements etc. 

Big or small, every memory will help us tell the story of Denefield. Reach out to us via SAL@denefield.org.uk with your stories. 


Let us celebrate Denefield together.

Club of the week

The cricket season is in full swing and therefore the club of the week is Mixed Cricket club. The club takes place every Wednesday from 3.00pm to 4.00pm on the playing fields, led by Mr J Clarke.

It is open to all students in Years 9 to 11 and is a relaxed, inclusive club where everyone gets a turn and no one sits on the sidelines. It is about teamwork, fresh air, and a bit of midweek fun.

To join the club, students can contact Mr J Clarke via jck@denefield.org.uk or meet with him in the PE office next to the Sports Hall. 

We also have other exciting clubs running throughout the week. Click the button below to find out more!
