Pupils’ school Council
The School Council is a body of elected representatives, one girl from each class in Year 2 to Year 6. This provides a forum for the pupil voice. Meetings are held half termly and each class representative is able to bring items
of interest and views/ideas from their classes. The girls give feedback to their classes and pupils are actively encouraged to be involved. Each September, girls can put themselves forward to stand as pupil representatives. They give an election address and each class votes for their chosen candidate, who then sits on the council for the year.
ECO Council
The Eco Council is an excellent opportunity to take part in the running of the School. Girls elect a representative from each form group (Year 1 – Year 6) and they meet twice a term to discuss environmental issues. In the past, girls have fundraised by making Christmas decorations out of recycled objects, presented important information to the whole school in assembly and shared their ideas with other schools.
