Welcome
Welcome to Eastwick Schools, a federation of Eastwick Infant School and Eastwick Junior School. We are proud to be a part of The Howard Partnership Trust.
Our children achieve highly, with results that are consistently above the national average. Just as importantly, we take great pride in the way our pupils flourish personally and socially, growing into confident young people who are truly “ready for anything”. We are fortunate to have an exceptional school site: featuring a swimming pool, two large playing fields, two woodlands and a wealth of playground equipment.

Reception’s Design and Technology unit was all about planning and preparing soup! They decided to make pumpkin soup and prepared all of the vegetables themselves, demonstrating strong hands and fingers and their safety skills.
The children cooked the soup with the help of Mrs Pate and everyone had the chance to try some. Delicious! 🎃 🥕🥔
On Monday 12th January, 10 children from Year 2 had a fantastic time taking part in a KS1 Cricket Skills Festival at Guildford Spectrum. The festival was run by the Surrey Cricket Foundation. They practised throwing, catching and bowling through fun mini games, before putting their skills into action in a game called “Three tee cricket” against other schools. It was a brilliant day full of teamwork, learning and smiles!
The children reported back saying: ‘It was so much fun’, ‘I enjoyed the game when you had to throw a beanbag up high and catch it’. ‘I wish I could do it again, I loved it’.
Year 3 and 4 boys star as mascots for L’head FC’s big Cup Game!
On Saturday 10th January 2026, sixteen boys from Year 3 and 4 were mascots for the Leatherhead FC Men’s team. It was an exciting moment as this was Leatherheads’ biggest game of the season so far - 4th round of the FA Trophy against Horsham FC!
The afternoon began with the boys meeting Dave and Trevor (Community Outreach representatives from L’head FC). They then went onto the pitch to play a mini game of football. Following that, the boys went to meet the players and managers in the dressing room. They had a chance to ask them questions like “Who is the fastest runner?” After that, there was a chance to eat some chips and keep warm as the weather was very cold!
Just before the game, our boys went out onto the pitch to watch the players from both sides warm up. It was interesting to see all the warm up techniques, not just passing the ball but different stretches, sprints, jogs, side steps etc.
Then came the moment the boys had been waiting for - walking out with the players! They also met the L’head FC mascot “Swanell.”
We then watched the first half of the game where L’head went 2-0 up! Sadly, the score did not remain this way! At half time, Dave took the boys back onto the pitch where they had a penalty shoot out.
After that, we watched the second half which was very exciting but sadly, in the end, Leatherhead lost 2-3. Horsham are a couple of leagues above Leatherhead so it was a good performance nonetheless.
All in all it was a fantastic afternoon! ⚽️

We’ve become aware of children and young people playing on frozen lakes and rivers in Surrey. We don’t need to stress how dangerous this is. Please speak to your children about the risks:
❄️ Ice is unpredictable. What seems strong enough to hold weight can fail in seconds.
❄️ Falling through ice can cause cold water shock, which is often fatal.
❄️ Attempted rescues put other lives at risk.
If you see someone on the ice, encourage them to return safely to the bank. If necessary, call 999 immediately.

Our Reception children enjoyed scooping snow, making snowballs, making snow angels and creating snow piles at lunch time today. They explored it further in our mud kitchen and used trigger bottles to spray the snow different colours. ❄️ ⛄️
Happy New Year to all of our Eastwick friends and families!
Our children have loved being back at school this morning, surrounded by their friends and teachers, plus our lovely snowy fields.
There are lots of smiles on faces, even if our hands are a little bit chilly - "Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!".
Our final few photos of Christmassy fun!
Our Infant pupils were lucky enough to get a visit from Father Christmas this morning! His sleigh arrived up Eastwick drive and along with his handy elf, he visited each classroom for a chat and to give out some presents!
Year 6 also enjoyed a festive competition - wrapping each other up as Christmas gifts! The children had to work collaboratively in teams to create the most creative, exciting wrapping design!
Ho ho ho! Merry Christmas!
