Pupil Council have been busy supporting our UNCRC targets and looking at survey information from pupils. They will be helping to create an action plan to help earn our Bronze Award for Rights Respecting Schools.
Discussions will also take place about how best to use playground resources and ideas for wet weather play times.

Update May 2022:
Members helped support a Safe Roads campaign and with PC McCutcheon were out on the pavement with signs reminding drivers where to park and to drive safely. We hope this keeps everyone safe as the outside of the school is a very busy area before and after school.
Update March 2022:
Children helped gather information for a dinner survey that was passed on to the authority to share the children’s views. A few points made included having different portion sizes for older children and a better variety of choice for sandwiches that children prefer. 4 Pupil Council survey Dinner menu

The children gathered information from peers to make lots of decisions about how to improve our playground and what equipment would be exciting to use everyday. They also spend time having discussions about our new anti-bullying policy. They also helped consider what activities would be great for the various sports days that took place in June 2021 under COVID restrictions. The committee worked hard in all these efforts.
