Pupil Parliament

This year we have some wonderful new members. Here are some of them.Some ideas the Pupil Parliament thought of in our meetings are: new bike shed, more scooter spaces, sand pit, re-paint concrete games, new benchers, basket ball back boards, new bins and improve bike parking entrance.

In August we raised £234 to go towards these things.

Digital Leader Selection

Our current digital leaders put our potential digital leaders through their paces!  Our new P5 leaders were selected, and are Jorjie, Aiden and Andie.  Well done!  They will be well trained by our P6/7 digital leaders.  We start this term by running lunchtime digital clubs for P5 and P4 as well as training our new digital leaders in updating the school blog.

Pupil Parliament Selection Day

Pupils had the opportunity to be selected for pupil parliament.  House Captains set challenges for those interested. They noted the skills and attributes of each participating pupil.  The information was then passed to Miss Irvine and Mrs Marshall to consider the best candidates for joining the pupil parliament.

Pupil Parliament

At our first assembly back Miss Irvine asked pupils to volunteer for becoming a member of the Pupil Parliament.  Anyone could sign up in their class.  The House Captains created a list for Miss Irvine and Mrs Marshall.  There are a lot to choose from!  On Friday 9th September the House Captains will set challenges for anyone who wants to be in the Pupil Parliament.  They will be evaluated on their team work skills, communication skills and problem solving skills.  The House Captains will select who gets onto the Pupil Parliament after the selection day.
