💚 It's Wear It Green Day at Alfreton Park School! 💚
This week is Mental Health Awareness Week 2026, and it's something we feel really strongly about here at Alfreton Park. Today, our school community is wearing green to show our support and remind everyone that mental health matters — for our pupils, our families, and of course, our incredible staff.
To show some extra appreciation for our wonderful team, we've set up a little treat station in the staffroom today — free fruit and biscuits to keep those smiles going! 🍎🍪
Looking after our wellbeing is just as important as everything else we do, and we're proud to play our part in raising awareness.
💚 Let's keep the conversation going. You are not alone. 💚

💚Happy International Nurses Day! 💚
Today we join the world in celebrating International Nurses Day — a day that marks the birthday of Florence Nightingale and honours the incredible contribution nurses make to our lives every single day.
Here at Alfreton Park School we are so lucky to have our very own beam of light — our wonderful school nurse, Sophie. 🌟
Sophie goes above and beyond for our pupils each and every day, she makes our school a safer, happier place for everyone. The smiles on our pupils' faces say it all — they absolutely adore her, and it's easy to see why!
Sophie, on behalf of everyone at Alfreton Park School — staff, pupils, and families — thank you for everything you do. We are truly grateful to have you. 🌸

🌟 What an incredible adventure! We have had 7 of our amazing pupils taking part in a 3-day residential at Lea Green Learning and Development Centre — and what a trip it was!
They stayed in the gorgeous Meadow Lodge and threw themselves into some fantastic activities (buggies, low ropes/ course, bushcraft, soft play and archery)
It was absolutely wonderful to see our young people stepping outside their comfort zones, trying new things, and working together as a team. And yes — our staff got stuck in too! 🙌
A fab time was truly had by all. We've uploaded some photos below so you can see just how much fun they all had — take a look and prepare to smile!
A huge, heartfelt thank you to the wonderful team at Lea Green Learning and Development Centre for making us feel so welcome and giving us such a rewarding and memorable experience. We can't wait to go back! 💚

🌟 What an incredible week at Lea Green! 🌟
Our pupils have had the most amazing time, throwing themselves into a brilliant range of activities — from low ropes and archery to soft play and the exciting skyline course!
We couldn't be prouder of how they represented our school values every single step of the way. They aimed high (literally! 🏹), showed real bravery taking on the skyline course, and most importantly, looked after one another — cheering each other on and offering encouragement when things got tough. 💚
It was a joy to watch them grow in confidence and create memories that will last a long time. A massive thank you to everyone who helped make this trip possible — your support means the world. 🙏
We think you'll agree... they absolutely smashed it! 🎉 ... See MoreSee Less

🌟 What an incredible day out for our pupils! 🌟
A group of our amazing young people recently took part in the 'Believe, Move and Achieve' event at the David Ross Sports Village, University of Nottingham — and what a day it was!
Our pupils threw themselves into a fantastic range of activities including boccia, sitting volleyball, archery and the climbing wall 🎯🏐🧗 — all while showcasing the brilliant values we are so proud of here at Alfreton Park School.
A real highlight of the day was hearing from Mel Clarke, Paralympic medallist, who generously shared her incredible journey — and even let our pupils hold her Olympic torch and silver medal! 🥈🔥 What an unforgettable moment!
The #SchoolGames event was organised in partnership with the University of Nottingham and Active Derbyshire, and was shaped by the voices of young people themselves — giving them the opportunity to try new things, build confidence and make new connections.
Seeing so many happy, proud faces throughout the day was truly heartwarming. You were absolutely brilliant and made us all so proud! 👏💚
