Respect – Autumn Term 2022

Click for a larger .pdf version

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

We show respect by listening and cooperating with others, seeking to understand their point of view. Respect is treating others as we would wish to be treated ourselves.

This includes:

  • Listening to others’ speak
  • Using good manners
  • Being considerate of others’ feelings
  • Showing tolerance of others’ beliefs
  • Being thankful
  • Looking after our environment and community.

We were saddened to learn of the passing of Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II.  As a mark of respect, we decided to celebrate Queen Elizabeth’s life of service through art and poetry.

“Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves.”

– Philippians 2:3
 
It would be wonderful to see a large proportion of the children taking part in the home-school challenge. You can explore this value at home using the resource on the right.

P.T.A. We’d love to see you!

   

We are hoping to hold our next PTA meeting in Elvington School on 29th September 2022 at 6.00 pm.

The time has changed back to 6:00 pm due to PTA members availability.

Due to this, there will now be no childcare facilities.

We’d love to see some new faces and all are welcome. 

We’d like to build a plan for fundraising for the forthcoming year. The PTA team are very easy going and as a team there is no expectation of time commitment. We give as much or as little time as we have spare to help. Some of the amazing things that the PTA helped fund last year included the school iPads, the new school books, the David Attenborough Day and The S.T.A.R. Barn, theatre shows, Story tellers, Purple Pig visits, and so much more.

We’d love for you to join us…The PTA Team
