News Ecclesbourne Primary School

As the Wimbledon tennis tournament nears, last week Year 5 children had the opportunity to take part in a tennis event which was run by one of our sports coaches from SAS Academy.

Today, the financial education charity RedSTART visited Ecclesbourne to deliver workshops to our Year 5 children.

Unsurprisingly, the action-packed activities and previous night’s excitement led to an early night’s sleep for all!

This week, a group of Year 6 children enjoyed three action-packed days both in and out of school.

What an absolutely action-packed day at Cuffley! For some, the day before had ended a little too late due to the excitement of camping out in the woodland.

Year 6 arrived in high spirits after a quick journey into Hertfordshire.

Today, Rockets and Stars classes had a very exciting visit from ZooLab. 

The inaugural Pegasus Trust Games has taken place with Ecclesbourne crowned champions. 

On Wednesday 5th July, year 5 went to the Tower of London as part of their thematic topic on Crime and Punishment.

This week our reception children started their forest school outdoor learning and had a fantastic time.

As a result of our collaboration with the P.I.G. charity and their allotment project, some of our Year 6 pupils were lucky enough to go and visit Mrs Burney’s Bees in Frylands Wood this week. 

Over the past term, a number of our KS2 children have been taking part in an amazing Creative Wellbeing Project. 

This year Ecclesbourne have been lucky enough to be apart of the Green Project, a health and wellbeing programme which aims to teach young people about planting, growing, harvesting, cooking and eating. 

‘Gloves Not Gunz’ is working with some of our Year 6 pupils to help prepare them for the upcoming transition to secondary school.

This week is British Science Week and the theme is ‘Time’.
