Our current Cathedral Pupil Parliament theme is Our health & wellbeing, with a specific focus on refurbishing the space used by our school counsellor. At their recent Class Council meetings, pupils across the school were asked: ‘What changes could we make to the Visiting Services room to make it a more homely space for counselling and quiet meetings?’. Given that our school counsellor is originally from Denmark, the children were asked to consider what might give the room ‘hygge’.

Our Pupil Parliament action board, which helps Cathedral continually drive forward change and improvement, has now been updated and our two Cabinet Secretaries for Health will lead and oversee the current priority over the coming weeks. They have already agreed on the colour of the walls, contacted the painter and ordered furniture and lighting from Ikea. Watch this space to see the transformation!
