School Council Latest News
The School Council play a very important role in school, listening to what the children want and making important decisions and improvements in school as well as planning and organising fundraising events.
Film Night
The School Council went around the classes and asked the children how they would like to raise money for Christmas. We voted for a film night and watched ‘Home Alone’. It was a great success. The money we raised will go towards our school sun shelter, providing us with shade during the summer.
Future Fund Raising
Our next fund raising event will be an Easter Egg Raffle, and all money raised will go towards the Sun shelter.
We have had a visit from some companies giving us quotes for our shelter and we are hoping to have made a decision on this soon.

This term, our School Council has been very active in its role. One of the main points raised so far has been about school lunches. The children in each class were trying to come up with new ideas to ensure they always get their preferred choice of food. As a result of this feedback, we will be testing a new system to make sure it is fair for each child.
Other matters discussed included questions about what the children want from our new Head Teacher.
Over the coming year, the School Council will continue to arrange fun and exciting activities to help raise more money for our “keep in the shade" campaign. The children will meet with the Governors to show them their proposals.
Sainsbury’s Vouchers
The School Council would like to thank everyone who collected Sainsbury’s Vouchers. We have received lots new playground equipment and the children are very excited about playing with all the new toys!

Developing the KS2 Playground
|
Children in Key Stage 2 decided they would like the grassed area of the playground developed into a more useful space.
The School Council discussed children's ideas and consulted with different companies to see what could be done with the area. After much thought, they decided that an outdoor classroom and a stage area should be built.
Robin Hood and the Lord Mayor and Mayoress came to an official opening of the new facilities in the summer term. |
