Introducing the Council

The School Council consists of one boy and one girl from each class in Key Stage 2, the Head Boy and Head Girl and one representative from the After-School Club. Years 1 and 2 are supported by visits from the Head Boy and Girl. Each member is voted onto the School Council through a ballot.

Our role is to take children's ideas and present them at the School Council meetings. We have a responsibility to represent our Year groups and we take this role seriously.

School Council reps go to meetings and discuss things about our school and its environment. We also help to decide which charities the school will support. In 2008 we are sponsoring two children through Acton Aid. We have also helped to organise the 120 year anniversary of our school.

We are responsible for the Bully Line Councillors and we represent the views of the children in our school. We have helped to change the playground and toilets and one of our great successes is the healthy break time snack shop run by our school cook, Mrs Passey.

So far in 2008 we have introduced 'pupil voice' slips so that children have a way to clearly communicate with their reps weekly, and not just during formal sessions, and we have already organised two competitions which have raised money to support our sponsored children.
