"My husband and I attended a school tour yesterday evening. We wanted to email to say how impressed we were with the tour. It was very clear that Ellingham is welcoming and friendly and had thought about small details which showed the school in a very positive light. We would like to especially thank the Year 6 children who were our guides - they were amazing at answering questions and a credit to the school in their confidence and attitude." - School Tour 15th October 2025.
"I just wanted to extend my thanks for the warm welcome and informative tours in both Saturday and today. The children did a fantastic job with their speeches and guiding us around on Saturday- they were confident, articulate, and clearly proud of their school. It was also lovely to speak with the teachers, whose passion for Ellingham and dedication and knowledge for their roles really shone through.
A special thank you to your Head, Margaret Johonnett for taking the time to show us around today. We truly appreciate her making space in her busy schedule. Her knowledge, experience and genuine love for Ellingham were evident as were her goals for the schools future." - School Tour October 2025
A very warm welcome to Ellingham Primary School
A very warm welcome to Ellingham Primary School
I am incredibly proud and privileged to have joined the vibrant, caring and inclusive school community that is Ellingham Primary School. We are a school with a family feel nestled in the heart of Chessington, and our vision is clear: we want children to feel valued and celebrated, to build confidence and independence, and to experience success.
This vision is at the heart of everything that we do. We nurture happy, resilient learners who are confident in themselves and curious about the world around them. They see themselves in our rich, inclusive curriculum, but also flourish in the strong partnerships we build with our families and local community. In this way, our children feel both their uniqueness and their belonging.
We are proud of our strong academic outcomes, which are a testament to our high expectations, skilled teaching and the hard work of our pupils. But furthermore, we prepare children for life beyond the classroom, encouraging them to be compassionate and responsible, ready to embrace the challenges of their generation and thrive as global citizens. At Ellingham Primary, it is our belief that strong roots create flourishing futures.
Whether you are a prospective parent, a current family or interested in learning more about our school, we look forward to meeting you. Please don't hesitate to get in touch or arrange a visit. We'd be delighted to welcome you.
