Elvington Church Family Christmas Services

I am sure you will be very busy in the run up to Christmas, but I would like to invite you to the events that the Church is hosting to make Advent and Christmas special. As we have had to plan differently this year, we are celebrating in a new way, which we hope you will enjoy.Elvington Church

Information has been emailed to families with all the details of the family Christmas services at Elvington Holy Trinity church, and how to participate.

Festive Lunch bookings

On Tuesday 15th December the kitchen team will be cooking a Festive Lunch for the children to enjoy in their bubbles.  As our cook needs to know numbers, in order to have the correct amount of  ingredients, we ask that you book your child’s meal on ParentPay by the 8th December.  If your child would prefer the vegetarian option, please also email the office so we can advise the cook.  Please don’t hesitate to contact us should you have any difficulty in making the booking.

York School Sports Network Speed Bounce Challenge

We have been asked to step up for a Challenge! We are looking for pupils to take part in a virtual competition. For this challenge, you will need a towel, balance, coordination and stamina!

Place a rolled up towel on the floor or row of cones. Stand feet together with the towel/cones next to the outside of one of your feet. Jump sideways over the towel/ cones making sure your feet stay together finishing with the cone on the outside of the opposite foot. Repeat back and too as fast as you can in 20 seconds.

Each bounce equals 1 point.

Try as many times as you like, but your score will start to reduce if you get too tired. Once finished, go online to register your best score. This way, you can help our school to win the Speed Bounce Challenge!
