I would like to extend my sincere and heartfelt thanks to all parents and carers at Elvington who so generously supported the recent hike in aid of OSCAR’s Paediatric Brain Tumour Charity and Elvington’s PTA.

The vast majority of donations were received directly from our school community. I am delighted to inform you that the total amount raised currently stands at £1,557.00, with a further £317.50 in Gift Aid. The JustGiving page will close on Thursday 30th April.Mr Buttery

PTA Christmas Fair

Dear Parents and Carers,

We are busy planning the upcoming PTA Christmas Fair next Friday 5:00-7:00pm. We are hoping this will be a lovely evening for all our families and raise lots of money for our amazing school.

We still need lots of helpers for the evening to go ahead to support the running of stalls. Please could you email the school office if you would be willing to support a stall on the evening even if it is just for 30 minutes.

Thank you,Elvington PTA

An overview of all our Christmas arrangements can be found here.

We will be holding a Non-uniform day on Friday 2nd May. Where possible, we are asking that children bring in a prize which will be used in a raffle at the Comedy Day/Night. All proceeds from this will go to the PTA. The PTA supports the school by raising money to enhance, enrich and improve learning experiences/opportunities for each and every child who attends Elvington School. Your support of the PTA is greatly appreciated.

Tickets for the Comedy shows are selling fast, all profits to the PTA. Many thanks to Mr Owen for arranging this fantastic family event.

Comedy Fundraiser Events

Tickets are selling fast for this popular event. An afternoon of fun for families and an evening show which is 18+ only . We are lucky that Britain’s Got Talent finalist, Steve Royle, has agreed to to do both shows (the evening show alongside three other comedians). All proceeds will go to the school.Mr Owen

Mrs Leach’s Marathon!

Following the unfortunate need to defer my place in the London Marathon last year due to a late injury, I am delighted to share that I am on track to participate this year, raising funds for the school.

I would like to extend my sincere gratitude to everyone who generously donated last year —your support is truly appreciated. Currently, the total amount raised, both online and offline, stands at £369.72 towards my £500 target.

To help reach this goal, I will be hosting a cake stall and lucky dip after school on Wednesday 23rd April. I hope you will enjoy supporting this event.

All money raised, minus platform fees, will go directly towards funding events and projects at the school.

I will be receiving my bib number shortly, which will allow children to track my progress on the London Marathon app. I would love to receive a virtual cheer along the way—further details and links will follow.

Wishing you all a wonderful Easter holiday!Mrs Leach
