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

What a joy it has been to watch the children in Rainbows and Nursery settle in to the routines of life in Little Cypress!

This half term our focus author is Anthony Browne.  Anthony has won many awards for his work and is a past Children’s Laureate. 

This week year 2 had a visit from Nabhi who engaged us in a wonderful workshop about the Hindu festival Diwali. 

What a wonderful start to the new school year we have had this week at Cypress!

Welcome back!  I hope you all had a restful summer and feel refreshed and ready for the new academic year. 

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!

We have been enjoying the warm weather and working hard to finish our learning for the year.

Today we celebrated our lovely Year 6 children and wished them well as they finished their Ecclesbourne journey.

It has been a busy week at the end of an extremely busy year. 

What a lovely week we have had in Nursery.  We have been looking at Jake’s first day, which has helped us to understand what will be happening when we start Reception in September.  

It is the final week of Reception. The children enjoyed celebrating by reflecting on the many things they have done this year.

It is always hard to say goodbye to our leavers, and we all enjoy our leavers’ assembly and the range of certificates presented, from the final Gold Awards, to the class based ‘Most likely to…’ certificates which always tell us so much about how well the children and staff know and like each other.
