Open Evening and the HEET event
May 14, 2013 in Front Page News by S Admin
The Open Evening and HEET event on Wednesday 8th May was an enormous success and attracted over 45 providers and over 1100 visitors.
The Open Evening gave the community the opportunity to visit the school and take part in a self-guided tour for the first time since the new build opened in April 2013. The reaction of the visitors was astonishing as they toured both Shirebrook Academy and Stubbin Woods and saw first-hand the fantastic facilities on offer.
All the visitors were then able to participate in the annual HEET event which is aimed at providing valuable information and resources regarding Health, Education, Employment and Training. The event was the biggest in the local area and assisted in providing the community with essential information regarding health and well-being.
A big thank you to all guests and providers for making the evening so successful.

Literacy Week 2013
March 11, 2013 in Front Page News by S Admin
Shirebrook Academy’s ‘Chronicles of Narnia’ Literacy week 2013!
Shirebrook Academy held its third annual F.L.A.R.E (Finding Literacy and Reading Exciting) Literacy week recently with the theme for this year being C.S.Lewis’ ‘The Chronicles of Narnia’. The theme was selected as it explores the idea of discovering new worlds, growing up, friendship and leadership which are central to Shirebrook Academy values and also link to the imminent move into the new build after Easter.
During the week, each year group had a special F.L.A.R.E assembly with presentations linked to ‘The Chronicles of Narnia’ delivered by Lindsay Ward (AST/ Leader of Literacy) and Anna Jacques (Assistant Principal-English and Literacy) and students were also entertained by outstanding dance performances by the highly talented F.L.A.R.E Dance group: Helena Burdett, Leah Key, Shannon Unwin and Charley Darby and the Year 7 ‘Mini F.L.A.R.E’ dance group also choreographed by Shannon Unwin.
