Elkesley Primary and Nursery School is seeking to appoint a dedicated and community-minded Local Authority Governor to join our supportive and ambitious Governing Body. This is a voluntary role offering a rewarding opportunity to make a real difference to the lives of children in our village. School governors play a vital strategic role in shaping the vision of the school, holding leaders to account and ensuring that resources are used effectively to deliver the very best outcomes for every pupil. We would welcome expressions of interest from individuals with a passion for education and community, who can offer their time, skills and a fresh perspective. No previous experience of governance is required, as full training and support will be provided. If you are interested in contributing to the continued development and success of our school, please contact the school office for further information.

We would love to share a fantastic fundraising effort from one of our school families. They have set up a charity called Hudson Hugs, which creates special days, treats and memorable experiences for families affected by cancer.

Three of our amazing pupils are taking on a sponsored challenge this June. Together, they aim to swim three miles (that’s over 64 lengths each!) to help raise money for this incredible cause.

If you would like to support them, donations can be made via their JustGiving page here: https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/kris-hudson?utm_medium=CF&utm_source=CL

Every contribution, big or small, will help make a real difference to families who need it most. Thank you for your support in celebrating and encouraging such a kind and selfless effort from our pupils.

Iʼm raising money to support Hudson Hugs. Support this JustGiving Crowdfunding Page.
