Please note the contents of the Lost Property Box will be placed on the benches (under the wooden shelter) in the playground, after school today, Friday 21st October.
We have registered with STICKINS, an online label company, who offer personalised labels at £7.80 for a pack of 30 (much cheaper than replacing uniform!). We are hoping this may reduce the amount of lost property we have. For every pack purchased, money is raised for our fabulous PTA – should you place an order, please quote our school code, 6819, to make sure this happens. Please see full details in the Newsletter.

School Council Competition

The School Council have been working alongside Hannah, from Phunky Food, to promote healthy snacks at break time. Today, they planned and delivered an amazing assembly to the whole school.

They have also organised a competition to design a poster promoting healthy snacks. The poster will be used around school to highlight what foods are acceptable at break and why. There will be prizes for the winning entries. The closing date is Monday 17th October.

Instrumental/Vocal Tuition 2022-23

I am pleased to inform you that we are joining a pilot scheme led by York Music Education to reintroduce 1-1 or small group musical instrument lessons at Elvington. This is something we offered within school time prior to Covid-19. If your child is interested in learning how to play a particular instrument, please read the attached flyer and fill out the questionnaire.

Thank you, Miss Palmer

Christmas Card Designs – new deadline!

There were a few sad children today, as they had either forgotten their Christmas design or hadn’t managed to finish it in time.  For this reason, I have pushed back the collection date to Tuesday 11th October.
For every product sold the PTA gets a percentage paid to them.  The PTA supports the school by raising money to enhance, enrich and improve learning experiences and opportunities for the children.  We are therefore extremely grateful for your support with this project.  If your child needs a design sheet there is still time!
We used this company last year and the quality of the products was extremely high, making ideal Christmas Gifts for friends and relatives.
Please don’t hesitate to contact me should you need any further information.
Kind regards,Mrs Greening
