Congratulations to our 1996 Head Boy John Wrathmell who's started a new job this week at No 10 North working with the new prime minister! Who spotted him on the lunchtime news today shaking hands with Andy Burnham?
We have lots of former pupils working across politics, including two current sitting MPs (one Labour, one Conservative).

**Please spare a couple of minutes of your time to help us get some FREE MONEY for Ermysted's!**
If you download the 'Easyfundraising' smartphone app and become a supporter of Ermysted's Friends' Association, the school gets £3 straight away just by you downloading the free app!
If 30 of you do this by 17th July we also hit a target that gives us an extra £150 bonus payment for the charity. So that's £240 of free money, just for a couple of minutes of your time!
You don't have to then use the Easyfundraising app - but if you do, then it will raise even more money for our school using the affiliate links for things you might purchase online anyway!
Thanks for your help and support of Ermysted's 😀

We're really sorry to advise that tonight's Summer Celebration has been postponed.
With temperatures on stage and in Memorial Hall exceeding 30 degrees, Mr Evans has made the executive decision to cancel the event this evening and reschedule.
All those with tickets should have received notification via our ticketing system TryBooking.
If you were hoping to turn up at the door, or know anyone else who was going to attend without a ticket, please can you pass on the message.
Thanks for your understanding.
The EFA Committee.

We are really sad to share the news that Mrs Gracie has passed away at the age of 100.
It was a delight to welcome her back to Ermysted’s last autumn to celebrate her milestone birthday and hear stories from her many years working at our school between 1969 and 1991. She was much loved by pupils and colleagues, and was integral to the running of the school over a sustained period of time.
Our thoughts are with Eileen’s family and friends at this sad time. Rest In Peace, Mrs Gracie 🤍
A celebration of Eileen’s long life will take place at the Baptist Church, Skipton on Tuesday 19th May at 1pm, followed by private interment.
