Old Campus
This page is dedicated to the old and new campus 29 October 2015.
17 September 2015 – Alford Primary School and Alford Academy are opening the doors of their existing schools on Thursday, 24th September, between 4pm and 7pm. This is an opportunity for former pupils and members of the local community, who have fond memories of the current school buildings, to say farewell to the “old” campus.
6 OOlctober 2015 – We have been celebrating this unique moment in our school history by taking photos and videos around the school.
It was only when we took a look at this photo later that we released that the Sky News Team were also helping keep an eye on our S6 during their study periods.
6 October 2015 – Last Friday, we took the decision to bring forward our informal whole school photo – part of our documentation of this unique moment in the history of our campus. With the weather forecast predicting rain for this week we wanted to capture the photo before the weather broke. We had a handful of pupils and staff on trips or training on Friday, so unfortunately it’s not quite every member of the Alford Academy Team, even so, for those viewing this post on Facebook, probably not worth trying to tag yourself or your friends!

8 October 2015 – Like so many days before, today at Alford Academy has been filled with fun, laughter, joy, the occasional tear. As we have sought to document this final week, and now final pupil day in the Murray Terrace Campus, we hope that you have enjoyed these brief glimpses into what life is like here are Alford Academy. As the packing is now finalised, displays are taken down and the building falls silent, Those lucky enough to have been part of this building’s history will hopefully remember it full of life! The heart of our school is its young people, and although they have now left for the final time, thankfully that same heart will be there when learning begins again on Thursday 29th October 2015 in our wonderful new Greystone Road Campus.
24 October 2015 – It was wonderful to see around three and a half thousand people visit us today at the Alford Community Campus open day. Many people have shared their thoughts and photos from today on Twitter using the hashtag #alfordcc. If you have a photo or memory to share from today tag Alford Academy on Facebook or use #alfordcc on Twitter or other social media.
