The Christian Value we are particularly focusing on this half term is Trust.

Trust is at the heart of healthy relationships, strong communities and a life of faith. Christians believe that trusting in God brings strength, comfort and hope, especially during difficult times. This trust is based on the belief that God is faithful, loving and always present in people’s lives. Christians often express this through prayer, worship and by following Jesus’ teachings, believing that God guides and supports them through every situation. Throughout the Bible, we see examples of people learning to trust God even in difficult or uncertain times.
Trust helps us to feel safe, valued and supported. It allows friendships to grow and communities to flourish. When we are trustworthy ourselves — by telling the truth, keeping promises and showing kindness — we help others to feel respected and cared for.
In today’s world, trust can sometimes be difficult. People may feel worried about making mistakes or letting others down. However, by showing honesty, reliability and compassion in our daily lives, we can help rebuild trust and strengthen our relationships with one another.
At Elvington Church of England Primary School we encourage our children to demonstrate trust through their actions, words and friendships. We aim to create a caring environment where everyone feels listened to, supported and valued.
“Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion, which cannot be shaken but endures forever.”
Psalm 125:1
It would be wonderful to see a large proportion of the children taking part in the home-school challenge. You can explore this value further at home using the attached resource.
A reminder that our PTA have organised a non-uniform day on Friday 15th May, in support of the upcoming summer fayre they have kindly asked for donations of tombola prizes. Please note that bottles and alcohol are not permitted.
We will also be having our class group photographs taken on Wednesday 20th May.
Thank you, as always, for your ongoing support in helping make Elvington Church of England Primary School a place where our children can flourish, feel valued, and enjoy their learning.
