Each year the children in Key Stage One vote for two children in their class to represent them on the School Council. Being a School Councillor is a very responsible position as they have to:
- Attend meetings.
- Make suggestions to improve our School.
- Take on tasks and roles to get things done.
- Talk to their classes and sometimes the whole School.
- Share their ideas with the School Council and their class.
In 2013/14 our School Council chose to support East Anglian Air Ambulance. To raise money for this charity, they organised and ran a cinema event for the Key Stage One children. The money collected at the Christmas productions also went towards the Air Ambulance. The final total raised by the School Council for the charity was £793.18. This is a fantastic amount of money, thank you!
The School Council did a series of litter picks to ensure our playground was rubbish free and a nice place for all of our children to play. The School Council thought that it would be a good idea to provide a rubbish bin for the playground. This has helped us to keep our playground clean and tidy.
Each year the School Council is invited to visit North Lodge Park Council Offices to have a meeting with the Town Mayor. They also hold their meeting during this time. This is a fantastic opportunity for the children and it is a great reward for all their hard work.
