News Ecclesbourne Primary School

This half term, year 3 have undertaken a cross-curricular exploration of dinosaurs. 

The children in Year 4 went home with a brand new book today if they wanted one. 

Our school council have been busy this week supporting a parent to develop an app (FOBBS Figures of Black British Society) which focuses on significant Black Britons both present and historical. 

One of the advantages to being part of a Multi Academy Trust is that all staff are part of a much bigger team than they would be in a single ‘standalone’ school. 

We had a special visitor to Nursery and Reception last week. 

Today, Year 2 took part in a workshop all about the festival of Diwali!

As you are hopefully aware, the deadline for applying for a secondary school for your child to attend in September 2023 is fast approaching. 

This week in Nursery we have been learning about the story ‘Rainbow Fish’.

Last week, Year 3 were studying the fantastically evocative poem called ‘From a Railway Carriage’ by Robert Louis Stevenson. 

Many thanks to everyone who donated cakes, treats and money to our Macmillan Coffee morning today. 

Our Year 1 parents were invited in to school this morning to hear all about what they children will be learning this year and how they can help at home.

Mars Class enjoyed creating their own computer games in computing today.

We are delighted that this year we are able to run our family learning again. 

It was lovely to see parents joining us today in our new Willows Family Centre for our Nursery curriculum meeting. 

Little Ecclesbourne children have settled well into their new nursery routines and have loved exploring the learning inside and outside, despite the showery and windy days.
