Open Morning – Friday 9th October 2026

At Elvington Church of England Primary School, we warmly welcome visits from prospective families and encourage you to come and look around our exceptional school. We understand that choosing the right school is an important decision, and we recommend visiting schools to make an informed choice. To gain a better understanding of how our school works, we invite parents/carers to join us for our Open Morning on Friday 9th October 2026. To book a place, please email office@elvingtonprimary.org.uk or contact the school office on 01904 555280.

During the Open Morning, prospective parents will take a guided tour of the school and have the opportunity to ask any questions.

The event is suitable for parents/carers of children from birth to 11 years of age. If you would like an additional tour following your visit, this can be arranged via the school office.

We look forward to welcoming you to our school community.
