News Ecclesbourne Primary School

This morning, the children in Nursery, Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 had a lovely time showing off their sporting talents and taking part in friendly competition.

EPS’s athletes put in excellent performances at last week’s prestigious Croydon Interschool Athletics Competition.

At EPS this week we were lucky to have two-time national champion sprinter, Frederick Afrifa, come to work with us on our fitness and share his story in an inspirational assembly.

Although these Year 6 children are not camping, they’ve still been exploring the great outdoors at Crystal Palace Park.

Yesterday, Asteroids and Meteors classes from EPS visited the Buddhapadipa Temple in Wimbledon as part of their RE studies.

Dear Parents and Carers Introducing ‘Studybugs’ – our new system for securely reporting absence as well staying in touch with the school.

5th July and 7th July 2023 Sadly, there has been no further progress in settling the ongoing pay dispute between the Department for Education and the teaching unions. 

This week at Ecclesbourne, we have been celebrating the 75th anniversary of the arrival of the Empire Windrush.

Year 3 have been studying Stonehenge and have recreated a sunset picture of it. 

After a year of hard work and SATs preparation, the Year Six children were treated to a trip to Chessington World of Adventures as a reward.

Year 3 from EPS visited Thornton Heath library this week. Both Meteors and Asteroids classes were given a tour of the children’s library as well as a talk and story from one of the librarians.

Lots of children and families came together on this lovely sunny morning to share a hot breakfast at our picnic tables and discover their next great read.

Every Thursday until the end of term it’s ice lolly Thursday at EPS!

In Reception, we got up close and personal with some very creepy-crawly visitors from Zoolab as part of our ‘Beastly Beasts’ topic.

Thank you to everyone who attended the virtual meeting this evening!
