There was a real buzz in the canteen today!
To celebrate the FIFA World Cup kicking off, our catering Team (Harrison Catering) decorated the whole space for a festival of Football, complete with bunting, mini pitches and a menu inspired by the competing nations. Today's opener was Chilli Nachos and Cheese. Who are you supporting this tournament? Let us know in the comments.

Take a step back to Spring 1978 and have a look at one of the very first full staff photos ever taken at Denefield.
Now we need your help. Do you recognise anyone in this photo? Perhaps a teacher who shaped your school days, a colleague, or even a face from your own family. Drop a name in the comments and help us put the story behind every face.
Every name you add helps us build a richer picture of Denefield's first chapter as we celebrate 50 years.
This photo was kindly shared by Ian Parsons (English Department).

The front of Denefield School, looking a little different from how it looks today. We are not sure exactly when this photograph was taken, but we love how it captures a moment in the school's history.
If you were a student or member of staff at Denefield, you will know this view well.
Can you help us date this photograph? Comment below or tag someone who might know it. You can share your own memories with us via [email protected]

A sixth form group photograph taken during Mr Mike Scott's time as Headteacher — so somewhere between 1985 and 2000. Look at those faces, those smiles, those hairstyles!

Best overall display: K-LMY (Whales)

Sixth Form choice: N-LBE (Black Spider Monkeys)
Special mentions go to S-GPE, K-VAN, L-EGH, N-CTS and L-MSH.
Thank you to all staff and students who supported the competition and helped make it such a success.

Congratulations to our Year 13 A Level Drama students on a brilliant set of exam performances.
Our students performed extracts from 5 Le****ns Eating a Quiche, a sharp and very funny comedy set in 1956. The piece demands precise comic timing and bold, committed performances, and our students rose to the challenge superbly.
The performances received excellent reviews from our examiners and audiences, and we now look forward to some fantastic results for our Drama students.
Thank you to everyone who came along to support them.
