WHINF – RedSTART in Year 2
Year 2 have thoroughly enjoyed working with RedSTART and their team of volunteers this week to learn about money.
For those parents who will be applying for a reception place for their child for September 2026 we have arranged a series of visits so that they can look around the schools with senior staff.
If you wish to view a school please see here for the available dates. Obviously we have to limit numbers so only parents/carers who have booked will be able to attend.
Year 2 have thoroughly enjoyed working with RedSTART and their team of volunteers this week to learn about money.
This week in Yellow Class, we kicked off our exciting new topic, “People Who Help Us!”
We are thrilled to introduce our English Champions, a dedicated group of students from Year 3 to Year 6 who have taken on special responsibilities to inspire and support reading and writing across the school.
Ecclesbourne were delighted to host Sarah Jones, Labour MP for West Croydon and Minister of Industry.
Last week, all the children at Ecclesbourne Primary School participated in the NSPCC’s Speak Out, Stay Safe programme.
On Tuesday it was Safer Internet Day and this year the theme was ‘Too Good To Be True’.
The half term has gone by in a whirlwind and it is amazing to think that we are already half way through the school year.
This half term Year 2 have been learning about materials in Science.
In yellow class, it has been an exciting adventure this week with our learning as we used our writing, creativity, maths, and imagination skills in some delightful activities.
In Reception this week, we read the book, ‘Peepo’ by Janet and Allan Ahlberg.
For the past two weeks, Nursery has covered the traditional tale; ‘Goldilocks and The Three Bears’.
What a week! The final week of the half term and the children just shine brighter and brighter.
This term, Year 2 have thoroughly enjoyed their art learning. We revisited colour mixing using watercolours and thought about what colours would be used to create a fiery picture.
It was lovely to see some Year One parents in school this morning sharing a book with the children.
On Wednesday, over 60 children from across the school gathered in the hall for our first ever collectors’ swap meet.
