This week, our Year 6 pupils have shown extraordinary resilience and determination throughout their SATs week.0 CommentsComment on Facebook
On Saturday last weekend, six children from ECS made their First Holy Communion at the Church of the Holy Name on Arbrook Lane.
Holy Communion is a special moment in the Christian faith when we remember Jesus’ Last Supper and celebrate his love for everyone. For our children, it’s also a chance to live out our school values (Community, Wisdom and Courage). It strengthens our community as children, families and staff come together in support and celebration. It encourages wisdom as pupils learn the meaning behind the bread and wine and reflect on how Jesus taught us to be kind and thoughtful. And it inspires courage as children take an important step in their faith journey, standing proudly and confidently as part of something bigger than themselves.
Surrounded by family and friends these children celebrated this significant event receiving communion for the very first time and experiencing the presence of Jesus with them through the holy sacrament.
From all at ECS - our congratulations to all the children and their families at this very special time.

Well done to our Year6s this week for their remarkable resilience, maturity and determination during their Key Stage 2 SATs. They approached each day with a positive attitude, supported one another and demonstrated the very best of themselves. Whilst SATs can feel like a daunting experience, the children rose to the challenge with confidence and perseverance, which is a real credit to them and their teachers.
We know how much effort they have put in over the course of the year (as have the fabulous Year 6 teaching team!) and it has been evident this week in their focus and commitment.
Now they can turn their attention and enthusiasm to the final half term of their educational journey at ECS, including the Year 6 residential and the Year 6 production!
Well done Year 6 - we're all exceptionally proud!

Well done to our Year 6 children today for completing the SPAG and spelling tests! I know the Year 6 team are extremely proud of you.
and then.....
Year 6 reading revision session with a ‘Traitorous’ twist!
Year 6 did some final preparation for their reading SATs paper tomorrow with a game of Traitors.
The aim of the game? Score the most points on a previous SATs reading paper.
The extra challenge? One of the team is a traitor who is deliberately feeding incorrect answers.
Can they win and identify the traitor?

From today, our Year 6 pupils will be taking their Key Stage 2 SATs tests and, on behalf of the whole ECS community, we would like to wish them all the very best of luck. They have worked incredibly hard throughout the year and should feel extremely proud of everything they have achieved.
The Year 6 staff team have been exceptional in their commitment and dedication across the year, ensuring that every child has had the opportunity to build confidence, develop their skills and truly showcase what they know and can do. Their careful preparation, encouragement and support have played a vital role in helping the children feel ready for this important milestone before they move on to secondary school.
Our Year 6s have lived and breathed the ECS school values (Community, Wisdom and Courage), showing determination, resilience and a positive attitude to learning. We are immensely proud of them all and know they will do their very best.
Good luck, Year 6 – we are all behind you!

A welcome from our
Headteacher
Esher Church School is a well-established and highly regarded Church of England primary academy in Esher, north west Surrey. Our vision underpins our drive to provide exceptional educational experiences for all children, equipping them with knowledge, skills and understanding to thrive in an ever-changing world. We focus on developing the whole child, encouraging each one to realise their academic and personal potential while also developing a sense of responsibility for themselves and others so they can make a difference.
Esher Church School is a faith school for all, not just a church school for Christians. We are fully inclusive of different backgrounds, faiths and abilities and welcome the diversity from across Esher and surrounding areas. Everything the school does, including the staff, governors and parents and carers focuses on the best educational experience for our children through our broad, balanced and challenging curriculum. Visitors to our school always notice the caring, safe and friendly environment which is enhanced by the children’s engagement and enthusiasm for learning in classrooms, sports fields and beyond.
We are an aspirational school, where we continuously develop our curriculum and our team to keep our teaching and learning high quality and ensure all children flourish. We work in partnership with local and national schools, both in the maintained and independent sectors, to share best practice with an uncompromised focus on learning and inspiring lifelong success.
