A big well done to the School Council for winning 2nd prize in a competition entered before lockdown. The £500 cash prize was awarded by the Rotary Club.
The Council successfully put forward a case for improving and extending the play area, to include a bark chip surface where tyres, logs and other natural resources can be used. In the future, they would like to add a summer house, raised beds and reflection area. This money will help kick start this project.
Just a quick reminder for parents and carers of children in Year 6 that the deadline for secondary school applications is the 31st October, during the half term holiday!

On behalf of everyone at Elvington Church of England Primary School, I would like to pass on my utmost thanks to the WPA Benevolent Foundation.
The WPA have approved a grant application for new playground equipment. This will allow us to purchase equipment to the value of £3300. We are immensely appreciative of this generous support which will benefit children throughout school.
As we approach November and the countdown to Christmas, I wanted to let you know that Elvington C of E Primary PTA Team – York are registered with easyfundraising, which means you can raise FREE donations for us every time you shop online.

Over 4,000 shops and sites from Amazon to holidays and car insurance, will donate to us when you use easyfundraising to shop with them – at no extra cost to yourself! Even your weekly online food shop could be generating a few extra pounds over the year.
There is a very simple, very quick (and free) registration which will provide you with a reminder button when you reach the checkout.
These donations really mount up and make a BIG difference to us particularly as we’ve missed out on this year’s disco and summer fair, so we’d really appreciate it if you could take a moment to sign up and support us. It’s completely FREE and only takes a moment.
