We now have our School Council representatives for this year. We know that they will do a fantastic job. School council meetings take place in Miss Lively's/Mrs Morgan's classroom, starting this Wednesday 10th October.
What do the School Council do?
The School Council takes part in lots of activities including:
• Listening to the views and concerns of other pupils;
• Representing these concerns to teachers, Mr. O'Neill, the Board of Governors and other adults;
• Coming up with ideas to help improve the school and make decisions;
• Thinking of ways to contribute locally and globally;
• Fundraise for St. Colman's PS and charities;
Being a school councillor is a very responsible position as you have to have a lot of sensible ideas and sometimes have to do things in your lunch times. However, it is your chance to play an important part in our St. Colman's community. You may have felt a little nervous about putting yourself up for election but it is exciting to see what happens when people share their ideas so continue to be brave!
Two areas that the Council will be looking at this year will be St. Colman's Primary School becoming a Rights Respecting School and also Cyber Safety. They will also be collecting cycling helmets, producing a leaflet for new children at our school and taking part in the #flossforfunding campaign aimed at making sure schools have enough money to run themselves correctly.
