Sport Clubs and Competitions
Here at Elton we aim to provide opportunities for as many children as possible to have the opportunity to take part in intraschool and interschool competitions in a range of sports. To support us with this, we sign up annually to be part of the Bury Schools Games Network. We attend events that enable children of all backgrounds and abilities to represent school, be introduced to new sports, learn new sports skills and build on their social and communication skills.

Board Games Club
The children love a bit of healthy competition which our board games club is perfect for! Our club helps to sharpen our focus, teach the value of teamwork and allows us to learn how to be a good loser. It helps us to develop and use communication skills but overall we love to have fun with our friends. We enjoy playing Jenga, bingo an frustration.
Lego Club
Each week, at Lego Club, we use our creativity and problem solving skills to build different things linked to our character curriculum. Over the term we have built a volcano linked to science, a stone age settlement linked to history and vehicles linked to our text Rythm of the Rain in English. It is great to work together and learn in a practical way. We can't wait to explore more and develop our lego building skills.
Choir
Every Monday after school, pupils from years 3-6 come together to sing, dance and have fun! They also concentrate and work hard to improve their singing and performance techniques. This year rehearsals have seen as many as 80 children come and join in, which has been amazing!
Some 35 of our choir have enjoyed taking part in the Young Voices Concerts for the eighth year running. Many thanks to the children who took part in previous years - you were all amazing and represented Elton Primary School fantastically. I hope all the parents who came enjoyed the concert, and I think everyone will agree that it really is a once in a lifetime experience for our children.
Keep watching this space for more information about some very exciting events that we have planned for the near future…
