School Council

School Council

Our School Council represents the views of all our pupils. It gives children the opportunity to make their voices heard and feel part of the whole school community.

The School Council's aims are:

to make the school a better place
to keep the school clean
to improve the school

Our Council is made up of 2 representatives from Years 3, 4, 5 & 6, usually chosen by their class teacher. The Council meets weekly during term time to work on particular projects.

School Council ‘Suggestion Boxes’

Members of the school council have engaged their peers in discussions (within their classes) about ideas to improve the school. Suggestions included; outdoor apparatus on the field, cookery clubs and other club ideas, updating the forest area with a path and trail, more benches for the field and fish tanks for key areas in the school. The feasibility of these ideas, and the many other ideas raised will be investigated further.

House Shield Competition 2020

This competition has been rescheduled for this half term (first Autumn half term) and we are asking for entries via the attached form. Paper copies can be obtained from the school office if required.
