News Ecclesbourne Primary School

Today, the school filled with Kings and Queens, Princes and Princesses and a sea of red, white and blue. 

The Pegasus Academy Choir was back singing with “Young Voices” this year and was on top form on Monday 25th April. 

We hope you are all prepared for Year Six’s bushcraft adventure next week, especially as the weather forecast is looking hopeful!

Thank you to all the parents, carers and children who joined us for the last meeting about this month’s residential trip for Year 6.

Tickets please… next stop Sun Class. This week in Little Ecclesbourne we began our new transport topic, focusing this week on buses.

As part of their Literacy work around the text ‘Wolf Brother’ by Michelle Paver, Year 6 were visited by two cave people, Twig and Ochre, who camped on the field at Whitehorse Manor Junior School for 3 nights. 

With recent higher numbers of COVID cases across the UK the SLT of the Pegasus Academy Trust has put in place some new precautionary measures to keep us all safe as we enter the last weeks of term. 

Over the last couple of weeks, Year 6 have been studying the text ‘Varmints’ by Helen War and Marc Craste. 

It has been wonderful to see the children back in school this week. 

Hello to all of our Pegasus families wherever you are reading this. 

Following the Prime Minister’s announcement today (Wednesday 30th December) and the publication of the accompanying guidance it is now clear that Croydon schools, including our schools within the Pegasus Academy Trust, will not reopen on 5th January as planned. 

As we come into the Christmas season many parents may be considering buying tablets or laptops for their children which will allow them to access social media sites.
