Ready for Everything.
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. With abundant open green spaces, our grounds offer an unrivalled environment for outdoor learning, exploration and sporting opportunities.

As part of their English unit, "A Walk In London", Year 4 have been researching different London landmarks, finding out their history and why they are special.
Today, we boxed-up our research ideas into our plans, ready to write our information texts in our next lesson.
Good luck to all our brilliant Year 6 pupils for their SATs tests this week. You have all worked so hard and we are so proud of you.
Take a breath, do your best and we’ll be with you every step of the way! 💚📝
Year 3 had a great trip to Nower Wood this week, exploring the woodland area for a range of mini beast, pond dipping to see which creatures they could find, and exploring the wide range of trees to try and identify their names by looking at their different leaf types!
Last Friday, Year 4 had a fantastic historical experience, immersing themselves in Roman Britain!
Dressed in Roman costume, the children learned about Roman food, Roman games and imagined themselves to be new recruits in Caesar's highly disciplined and well-trained army! Whilst fierce Roman weaponry was of particular interest, it was amazing to feel how heavy the armour was and how strong a Centurion needed to be!
Thank you to Derek for teaching us so much about our Roman History topic!
On Thursday morning, Year 5 were delighted to welcome a local officer from Guildford Fire Station to Eastwick for an informative talk. The session involved learning about safety when using electricity, how to identify a fire hazard, and what to do in an emergency. Wolves, Foxes and Ark 5 showed fantastic engagement throughout.
Following an exciting morning, the Year 5 children then completed a Science practical experiment in the afternoon. This required them to dissect a tulip, and then identify the different components of the flower. Well done for a brilliant day, Year 5!
Each week, our teachers choose one pupil from their class who has consistently shown the school values, who works hard in lessons and who represents Eastwick with pride. These children are then rewarded with "Tea Time" - a time to get together with a member of the leadership team to celebrate their ongoing efforts.
This week, the selected Junior children enjoyed time together on the picnic benches playing uno, having some squash and a biscuit, and enjoying some down-time to celebrate.
Happy sunny Friday! 🔆
Some of our children, parents and teachers had the pleasure of running London’s Mini Marathon yesterday ☀️ The sun shone on us from the moment we gathered at the Horse Guards Parade and we were lucky enough to have a warm up led by Joe Wicks!
As we set off at the start line, the crowds were cheering wildly and we ran through bubble machines to give us some extra energy. Throughout the race, the children represented Eastwick with pride and showed great determination. Just before we reached the finish line, we ran straight past Buckingham Palace!
All of us steamed through the finish line, as the crowds cheered us on, and the children were lucky enough to collect their medals 🥇
Well done Team Eastwick for yet another fantastic achievement this weekend 💚 🏃🏻♂️
