To make sure that all pupils have an opportunity to hear the feedback from the School Council Meetings the councillors will be giving feedback at the Monday morning Assembly. At first it will be Year 6 Councillors. You will also have an opportunity to put forward your ideas or suggestions. Don’t forget that the Suggestion Boxes will still be in the Classrooms.
As we near the end of the School Year we would like to thank the Councillors for all their hard work and representing the school so well. In particular Lewis and Chloe our Chair and Vice Chair who have visited the Schools Parliament on behalf of the school and Jack who has represented Year 6 so well. We wish them every success in their new schools.
At the next meeting one councillor from each class will stand down and one will remain for a further year. At the beginning of September each class will vote for anew Councillor. In this way all councillors will have a two year term.
We are delighted to welcome two new Year 2 Councillors onto our committee. Tara Sayle and Callum Moore are the new Year 2 representatives. These children will now do Year 2 feedback. If you are in Year 2 and would like to put any ideas to the Council speak to your councillors. They will be setting up an ideas box in the classroom very soon.
To help raise funds and as part of Measures Week Councillors are holding an Easter Egg Competition – Guess How Many Easter Eggs are in a large jar. Entries cost 20p and the person with the closest guess will win the jar of eggs.
Councillors will be going round the classrooms every day from Monday 22nd March to Friday 26th March, the winner will be announced on Monday 28th March. Children can have as many tries as they wish so don’t forget to bring in your money. GOOD LUCK
All the council have thought about the Wii and we have thought about where we are going to put it. We might put it in the Tom’s Space or the music room.

We have had a letter from Healthy Schools, asking for ideas for an activity to improve the health of Pupils or make the school a healthier place. Some ideas were to have an after school Nutrition Club for Healthy Packed Lunches, with rewards for the best healthy packed lunches. A Wii Fit club after school or as part of Breakfast Club.
Have you got any ideas, please speak to your class councillor, Mrs Hudson, Mrs Pearson or Mrs Culshaw
At the last Council Meeting Councillors were asked for their ideas about how the Wii could be used in school. Councillors came up with some very good suggestions such as having a Rota for Playtimes and Lunchtimes, Breakfast Club trialling games, pupils bringing in their own Games and suggestions on what new games we could buy. One idea was to have an after school Wii Fit club or use the Wii for Golden time.
If you have any ideas please speak to your class councillor or speak to Mrs Hudson, Mrs Pearson or Mrs Culshaw.
We are delighted to welcome two new members onto our School Council: Harry from Year 3, and Jack from Year 6. Don’t forget to put your ideas and suggestions into your ‘Class Suggestion Box’.
