Slingsby’s Scarecrow Trail and May Day

The Scarecrow weekend and Slingsby May Day celebrations will be taking place over the weekend of 29th April to 1st May. Friends of Slingsby School (FOSS) warmly welcome entries for the scarecrow trail. There is no set theme, we just ask for a fun, child-friendly entry that families will be able to guess using a clue from the trail. Entries are £2. Please submit the name of your chosen scarecrow along with a clue by Friday the 31st March. To enter or for more information please email [email protected].

The pop-up cafe will be open in the Methodist Chapel across the whole weekend 10am – 4pm, offering refreshments and a selection of children’s pre-loved clothes, toys, books and Slingsby school uniform.  

This year Friends of Slingsby School will be taking on the running of the cafe in the Methodist Chapel on the Monday and we are seeking volunteers and baked items to help us on the day, if you are able to help please email [email protected] for more information.
