Extra Curricular Clubs

We are proud of the valuable contribution that clubs make to children’s learning. The range of clubs that are held in school varies each term, with recent examples including football, rugby, netball, newspaper club and many more.  Teaching staff usually volunteer to run such clubs, however as part of our commitment to extending the quality and range of children’s activities, we do also engage professional organisations to run some clubs, for which there may be a charge.

Every attempt will be made to accommodate as many pupils as possible. An email is sent to families each half term with the clubs information, together with a booking form. Please return this this in a new, separate email to the usual office email address. This ensures that each response is seen individually rather than being missed in an email trail.

In 2022-23 we joined a pilot scheme led by York Music Hub to reintroduce 1-1 or small group musical instrument lessons at Elvington and we are delighted to announce that this collaboration is continuing for 2023-24 with the delivery of instrumental and vocal tuition to pupils in the school.

We are pleased to inform families that, at the beginning of the new academic year, we do have some spaces within our Guitar, Piano and Singing Lessons. These places will be given on a first come first serve basis. Last year, the children thoroughly enjoyed engaging with these extra curricular music lessons within school time. Guitar lessons take place on a Monday afternoon and Piano and Singing lessons on a Friday afternoon.

If your child is interested in learning how to play a particular instrument, please click here for further information.
