News Ecclesbourne Primary School

Thank you to all the parents and carers who attended our first Reception Reading Café of this academic year. 

Satellites class enjoyed the Autumn sunshine during their Outdoor Learning lesson today. 

Today Little Ecclesbourne welcomed some feathery visitors and asked lots of questions to find out even more about the owls and hawk. 

This week we’ve been thinking about Harvest and have had a busy week of learning and celebrating.

The theme for Black History Month 2024 is ‘Reclaiming Narratives’ and marks a significant shift towards recognising and correcting the narratives of Black history and culture.

A huge thank you to all our families who donated cake and came along to our Macmillan Coffee Morning last week – together we raised a whopping £160 for the charity!

Little Ecclesbourne children have been reading the story Owl Babies.  We have been talking about where owls live and exploring the materials they use to make their nests.   

Thank you to all the parents and carers who attended the meeting last night all about our residential camping trip to Cuffley!

Today, the children and staff of Ecclesbourne put their best denim-clad foot forward in support of Jeans for Genes, raising a fantastic £236 for the charity!

As you are hopefully aware, the deadline for applying for a secondary school for your child to attend in September 2025 is fast approaching. 

Congratulations to our newly-elected Ecclesbourne school councillors. It was wonderful to see how many children put themselves forward for this responsibility – the successful candidates were voted in by their classmates after sharing their views on how they can support the school community.

The new children of Little EPS have begun their school journey by exploring the classroom and outside space. 

We were delighted to welcome our new reception children to Ecclesbourne today.

A huge welcome back to all our Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 children and families – we hope you all had a wonderful summer break.

We are about to kick off the new school year with some fantastic news – thanks to your support and the support of the local community, Ecclesbourne has been awarded the Tesco Stronger Starts grant!
