Our staff lead for the Pupil Council this year is Mrs Retson.
The Pupil Council is a group of pupils who were elected by their peers to represent them and their views. They meet regularly to make decisions about how our school is run and enables them to make changes for the better in our school as part of our improvement process.
The Pupil Council have been really busy sorting and re-stocking our class Wet Play Boxes. The boxes are filled with games, toys and other items that the children can use during a wet interval or break. The Pupil Council had asked each class for suggestions for items for the boxes and a wish list was made.
The boxes are now ready and in all the classes for the children to use.
The Pupil Council have been extremely busy this year so far
planning a number of events and activities.
Our Harvest Service collection was an amazing success. The school collected 305.70kg for Erskine Foodbank which is 728 meals for people in crisis within our community. A cheque for £55 will be sent. Many thanks for your generosity and support with this work.
Our School Pupil Council have been really busy and organised a fundraising event on Friday 16th November for the whole school to take part in order to raise money for Children in Need.
Activities such as
selling wristbands throughout the week
pupil council reading Pudsey story to all the classes
whole school dance to ‘Baby Shark Song’ along with children from Inchinnan Community Nursery
were organised and enjoyed by all. Their efforts raised over £200 to be sent to Children in Need. Well done everyone!
At Inchinnan Primary we encourage our pupils to become partners in their own education. Our Health Committee in partnership with our Pupil Council organised an activity day to raise funds for Sports Relief March 2018. The activity day was the pupil’s ideas and these initiatives planned through our citizenship groups develop pupil participation in decision making and develop pupil voice. It also helps develop a sense of responsible citizenship within the school and wider community.
On Friday 23rd March Children were permitted to wear sports clothes and to bring their bikes, scooters or roller skates to school with £1 donation for the charity. Sport relief wristbands were on sale in the school this week too. So far we have raised £125.
Activities included basketball, archery, golf, hammer throw, beat the goalie, just dance, trim trail, bikes, scooters and running.
Here are some of the photos of the activities which the children took part in throughout the day. In the afternoon, an obstacle course was set up in the Gym Hall for all the children ( and some teachers! ) to complete.

February 2018 Update
The Pupil Council had a joint meeting today with The Health Committee. We discussed upcoming ‘Sport’s Relief Day’ which is taking place on Friday 23rd March. The Pupil Council and the Health Committee discussed some sporting ideas and games and how to organise activities for the school children to take part in throughout the day. The children will be allowed to wear Sports clothing on the day.
The Pupil Council explained and showed the contents of the ‘Sport’s Relief’ Information Pack.
Remembrance Day is a memorial day observed since the end of the First World War to remember the members of our armed forces who have died in the line of duty. To commemorate this we had two minutes of silence on Friday and the whole school made this sign out of poppies. They are the flowers which grew on the battlefields after the war.
This year the Pupil Council will be led by Mrs McGlynn. Eva Taylor is the Chairperson and the Vice Chairperson is Zachary Munn. The Pupil Council meet every Tuesday Lunchtime. They work very hard.
