On Tuesday this week it was Safer Internet Day.  All the children joined an assembly by Mr Francis focusing on this year’s theme of ‘Want to Talk About It?’. 

In year 3 we have been studying variations of the Cinderella story.  

At Ecclesbourne, we love reading and we thought what better way to celebrate the upcoming World Book Day than by running an exciting reading competition!

This term Little Ecclesbourne has been learning lots of Fairy Tales. 

​Preparations are well under way for Museum Day, which takes place across Pegasus schools next Friday (10th February) In the attached photo, you will see Comets class at EPS have begun painting their Roman shields.

Year 5 had a fantastic day out yesterday at London’s famous British Museum. 

Children in Year 4 at EPS have been learning to multiply using practical resources and by working together in pairs.

Congratulations to the EPS boys’ football team for a fantastic win this afternoon against Norbury Manor who put up some stiff competition.

This half term, children from across all the Pegasus schools came together to perform poems in front of a panel of judges. 

EPS’s boys’ football team put in a spirited performance to beat Elmwood 4-2. 

In Year 3, we have been studying the book ‘Jemmy Button’ by  Jennifer Uman and Valerio Vidali. 

At Ecclesbourne we would like to say a massive thank you to Lidl who have been helping us with our breakfast provision. 

This term in Year 1 we have been covering the thematic topic ‘Toys’.

Congratulations to all the children who completed their reading challenge over the Christmas holidays!
