More about the event
Elfridges is the perfect way for your child to get their loved ones a gift they can choose themselves which will be a surprise on Christmas Day.
Each year we have run this, we are blown away by the love and attention which goes into picking out the perfect gift.
Children will be able to select their gifts and they will be bagged up there and then for them to take away with them, labelled and ready to gift.
How will my child know who they’re buying for?
If you would like your child to take part in Elfridges, when you book the gift on PTA Events (more details on this below) you can tell us who they are buying for.
We will go class by class and invite all children who are taking part to come and complete their Christmas shopping.
We can then inform them who they are buying for based on the details you provide us with.
The gifts will then be labelled with these details to ensure the gift goes to the right person.
What is PTA Events?
To allow us to track gift sales and process card payments we use a system called PTA Events. (As seen in screen shot image).
The portal isn’t always the most user-friendly, however, once you’re set up on the system we hope it will be a pain-free experience for you!
You will be able to select your gift quantity at this point and provide details of who they are for.
Please ensure you notify us of any dietary requirements.
FAQ’s
What if my child isn’t in on Wednesday 18th December
We don’t want anyone to miss out, so we will select the gifts we feel most appropriate based on the details you provide ready for you to collect when you’re back in school.
I’m worried my child won’t know what to pick
There will be a number of parents helping out at the event who will be able to guide your child and support them in their decision making process. We make it as fun and festive as possible for them.
Who are the presents for
Elfridges is the perfect opportunity for children to select gifts for their adult family members. It’s nice to be able to surprise their loved ones with a gift they have chosen with them in mind. We don’t offer children/siblings gifts for this event.
How will my child bring the gifs home
We package and label everything for your child and then they are responsible for taking it back to their classroom and out to you upon school pick up.
