Our School
School Council
Our School Council is made up of our House Captains and Vice Captains and is led by Mrs Jones. Each class has a School Council book where children can write their ideas, thoughts and opinions – these are taken in by the Councilors and shared during meetings.
School Councilors give feedback and share up-coming events during the Monday afternoon assembly where the rest of the children also have the opportunity to share anything new. The School Council make a BIG difference in school. In partnership with our PTA, they organise fund raising events, raise money for school fund and also their own projects.

The school council meet regularly to talk about issues in school, to support different projects and this year become involved in the Children's parliament . Four of our school council represented our school at the first meeting of the children's parliament to discuss how we can make our school more sustainable. The school parliament consists of representatives from other schools in Warrington and each school had to discuss their ideas for making their school more environmentally friendly. Our group had agreed some strategies and had to share them with other members. They conducted themselves confidently, listened to others and shared their ideas.
This half term , now the weather is hopefully getting better they will be helping the children in our school make bird feeders , plant trees and help Miss Albiston improve the meadow for the reception children. Anti bullying week. The children took part in anti - bullying week and learnt all about showing respect for other people's opinions and ideas .
Anti Bullying Competition
The children in school designed a T shirt to show how people need to be respectful of others. The school council had the very hard job of looking through over one hundred entries and finally came up with the decision to give Brooke from Opal the well deserved prize of her design being made into a t shirt.

On Thursday 21st March it will be World Down Syndrome Day. We have Gingerbread Socks available to buy from school for £1 each, these delicious gingerbread sock biscuits have been helped to raise awareness and funds for Down Syndrome Cheshire for 11 years. Thank you for all your support.
The School Council had a great time judging the school’s anti bullying posters from each class. They found it difficult as the standard was so high but managed to whittle it down to 3 from each key stage. The winners will each receive a prize and their poster will be put up around school to help the children in school remember how to look after each other.
