News Year 5

At Ecclesbourne, we love reading and we thought what better way to celebrate the upcoming World Book Day than by running an exciting reading competition!

​Preparations are well under way for Museum Day, which takes place across Pegasus schools next Friday (10th February) In the attached photo, you will see Comets class at EPS have begun painting their Roman shields.

Year 5 had a fantastic day out yesterday at London’s famous British Museum. 

Today, Year 5 went to the British Museum and had a fantastic day studying artefacts from our Viking past.

This week, the children in Year 5 visited the British Museum to study artefacts from our Viking past. 

EPS’s boys’ football team put in a spirited performance to beat Elmwood 4-2. 

We are delighted that our gardening club is now up and running.

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

This week we have been thinking about thinking critically. We know that critical thinking requires you to use your ability to reason (one of our learning powers!).

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

We were so excited to come to school on Monday! There was quite a thick blanket of snow on the ground – amazing fun to play in (a health and safety nightmare for Mr Stewart and Mr Cheyne!).

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. 

This week we have spent time thinking about how resourceful we are in the classroom.
