Epping St John's School Quiz night! Get your team booked in & join us for a fun evening whilst raising funds for the year ahead💚

We were delighted to see such an amazing turnout this morning for our Y6 before school maths group! Over 40 pupils attended for a session on the four rules. Tomorrow they're playing SPAG bingo!

Our Year 1 pupils had a fantastic visit to Epping Fire Station Essex Fire Service last week, they tried on uniforms, had a look at the hose and all the equipment. The pupils even got to sit in the front seat of the fire engine! For more pics: eppingprimary.essex.sch.uk/News/Year-1-Vi…

It was lovely to be invited to speak at an assembly at Epping Primary about Epping’s brand new Sports Centre & Swimming Pool. 🏊‍♀️Over the past 8 years I have fought to get this state of art leisure facility built in #Epping & secured funding for the multi-million pound project 1/2
