News Year 1

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

Yesterday our YR1 children were very excited to find out more about old toys.

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

This term we will be learning all about toys. We were very lucky and had a special visitor in school today showing us lots of old and new toys.

A while back we posted the news story below about reading and our favourite places to read. 

This half term our focus author is Mick Inkpen.  He began his career as a graphic designer and worked on a cartoon strip for the Sunday Express newspaper. 

We have had a very Christmassy, musical week at Beulah! Our choir has been very busy.

Last week, the children all took part in their amazing Christmas performances and concerts. 

Parents and carers of our Year 1 and 2 classes were treated to some exceptional Christmas singing on Tuesday this week.

The cold snap brought the opportunity for the children at Ecclesbourne to get outside and play in the snow. 

Children throughout EPS have put on excellent performances in their respective Christmas shows. 

Our KS1 classes delivered two wonderful performances of the production ‘Lights, Camel, Action’ last week to very packed and appreciative audiences.

We were very excited to have one of our parents come into school to read a familiar story to our children in her home language.

This week all of the children at Whitehorse Infants proudly sang their hearts out in their Christmas Concerts.

On Tuesday, we had another very successful parent coffee morning.  This time we invited Barbara Allen from our Mental Health Support Team (MHST) to come in and explain to our parents/carers what support they offer.
