Every child in school is involved in a Pupil Leadership Committee to give them the opportunity to share their thoughts, ideas and to lead on a certain area of development for the school. The committees are facilitated by a member of staff, but children lead as much as possible – even recording the minutes of meetings. This year we have 2 committees which meet once a fortnight, the children have explained below what each group is working on or have achieved so far.
Eco Committee
We are all extremely proud to say that we have earned the Eco Green Flag multiple times throughout the years, most recently in July 2023. We are the Eco Warriors of Elie Primary School! We have planned litter picks, planting vegetables and reducing food waste by distributing extra lunch fruit at Fruit Fridays! We are always trying to think of new ideas to improve our environment.
Sports & Wellbeing Committee
We earned the Gold School Sports Award in 2023. We are working on teaching the school the 5 Ways to Wellbeing. We plan sports day and other festivals throughout the year. We also keep the school healthy by hosting lunch time clubs. We have raised money for charities: for Children in Need 2023 we held a Dance-a-thon for Pudsey day which raised £78.16 and for Red-Nose Day, we hosted a talent show which raised £18.
