Christmas Performances
Junior Performance
Our Junior performances were a great success this year. Parents were invited to join the jam-packed cast of nativity celebrities as they celebrate Jesus’ birth with a dazzling dance show. ‘Lights, Camel, Action’ was performed twice, for the first time this year, giving parents, grandparents and friends an extra opportunity to enjoy the show. Well done to all of the pupils who took part – your singing and dancing was amazing!
Firefighters!
The pupils in Class 4 and Class 3 had some exciting visitors this week – firefighters from County Durham Fire and Rescue Service. They had an important message about fire safety to share with our Infant pupils along with an opportunity to try on their firefighting uniforms. Miss Edmunds and Mr Carr also had a race to see who could put on the uniform the quickest – Mr Carr won!
The pupils also had an opportunity to explore the fire engine and use the water hose. As you can imagine we had a very wet play ground by the end of the morning!
Sports Day
Many thanks to everyone who joined us for our Sports Day this week. We were fortunate, for the second year running, to have glorious weather which made the event even more special. Pupils completed a carousel of activities including netball shot, long jump , running race and archery. Winners were awarded stickers and the winning team this year was the …. RED team! Well done to everyone involved.
Class Two – Northumberland Zoo
Class Two had a fantastic day out at Northumberland Zoo this week. Not only did they see many different types of animals, they also managed to get ‘hands on’ with a few too! The fact that the weather was fantastic only made the day better. As you can see from the slideshow of photographs below, everyone had a great time (including the animals!)
Destination Judo
We were lucky enough to have Hannah and Adam from Destination Judo visit us this week to show us some judo moves.
It was great fun and we really got stuck in!
Year 6 Leavers’ Service
Leavers’ Service
Our Year 6 pupils visited Durham Cathedral this week to take part in the annual Leavers’ Service. It is an opportunity to remember all of the good times they have had over their time at primary school and think about some f the important people they have met. There is also an opportunity to think about the challenges that lay ahead and ways to cope with them. It is always a favourite event at Ebchester.
As you can see from the photo, our year 6 pupils had a great time!
Infant Castle Trip
Class Four and Class Three had an amazing time on our school trip to Newcastle Castle. We started our day by having a guided tour around the castle. Our favourite parts were seeing the dungeons and the toilets! In the afternoon, we imagined we were in a medieval court and we were served wine, we sang and danced, and we dressed up as knights. We learnt so much on our trip and we have made a castle in our role play area with armour, weapons and a dungeon just like we saw on our trip.
World Book Day
We’ve had a fantastic day today – World Book Day is always one of our favourites!
Every child brought in their favourite book to share with their friends. It’s amazing how many great books we got to share!
