Welcome to the Student Council Page!
2025 - 2026 School Council
Our Purpose
Is to Inspire Everyone to REACH through
Faith, Hope & Love
To show that Little Acts, done with Great Love can make a Big Difference
We are the voice of the pupils.
We will aim to find ways to improve our school and inspire the pupils to be the best they/it can be.
To give every pupil a voice and to make all decision making fair.
School Council Voice
Class elections have now taken place, due to having a small Y6 Class this year, we are going to run School Council slightly differently this year, with each KS2 Rep taking it in turn to lead our meetings. Our older class representatives, as always will support the younger reps to represent their classes.
We meet weekly on a Monday, unless we have an inset day, then we meet on Tuesdays.
Our Reps this year are Harry, Tom, Ella, Oliver, Seth, Mia, Frank, Willow, Attitcus, Bella, Gregory, Phoebe and Ronnie. Reception Class will choose their reps after our Christmas break.
Our New Big Project 2025-2026
Outside Hand Washing Station
This is the type of sink we'd like to raise money for, it will be really useful for when we tend the school garden and the prayer garden.
We are currently coming up with fundraising ideas, which we will update you on shortly.
2022 - 2025 Big Project COMPLETED..........almost!!!!
Prayer Garden
So after 3 years of designing and redesigning, fundraising we have finally started our Prayer Garden!
The original designs and wishes of both The School Council and Chaplaincy Team proved to be too expensive. We were lucky enough to secure a grant through the Little Ways Catholic Educational Trust and with fundraising completed over the 3 years by the various members of The School Council and Chaplaincy Teams we had £2,300 to spend, along with some generous donations of building materials from parents and local companies.
During the first week of the summer holidays various staff and parent volunteers, under the guidance of Mr Barron, and Angus our Foreman (Mr & Mrs B's dog, see photos!), created the start of our Prayer Garden, a little smaller than we originally intended. We are aiming to add planting once the children return to school in September along with asking Father Phillip to bless the Garden.
A big THANK YOU to everyone who helped out or donated supplies!
TUCK SHOP!
WILL RETURN MONDAY 29TH SEPTEMBER
MONDAY TO FRIDAY - MORNING BREAK
IF WET PLAY, TUCKSHOP WILL BE AVAILABLE OUTSIDE Y1 CLASSROOM
DRIED MANGO - 80p
DRIED PINEAPPLE - 50P
RAISINS - 40p
All bags are 30g, if your bag appears to have less than your friends, then your fruit is bigger and plumper!
Why are our bags 30g?
Our bags are 30g as 30g of dried fruit is equal to 1 of your 5 a day!
In keeping with Catholic Social Teaching, as stewards of earth, we endeavour to ensure that all our fruit is ethically sourced by Fairtrade companies, or from suppliers who pay farmers a fair price for their produce or give back in other ways to communities where the fruit is grown. We purchase our paper bags from a company who guarantee a Carbon Zero Footprint. We also encourage our classmates to recycle the bags in the recycling bins in their classrooms.
The small profit we make will be added to other funds we will raise across the coming school year for our new project, which will be to install an outside hand washing station, next to the water fountain on the playground.
Suggestion Boxes
Boxes are now in classrooms with slips for children to write their suggestions on.
We open the boxes once a month, at the first meeting of the month. Any suggestions are discussed, advice sought from the relevant adults, and then we feed back to our classes with any further actions that we will/can take.
These boxes will be opened for the first time, this school year, on Tuesday 4th November!
Some of our successful suggestions so far have been installing an outside water fountain, updating the log trail, creating the Prayer Garden with the Chaplaincy Team and supplying new reading books with the Reading Ambassadors
