The Gleddings’ School Council and Healthy School Council The children elect 2 School Councillors from their class whose job it is to:
• Come to School Council meetings and take part in discussions • Let the class know what was discussed at meetings • Take the views of their classmates to the School Council • Become involved in projects that the School Council runs Our School Council meets every Wednesday and Healthy School Council every half term. Emily and Gus, our School Council Leaders, run the meetings and make sure that everyone gets involved. Lucy is our Secretary and she writes our letters and makes sure everyone has a copy of the minutes. Our Treasurer, Elliot, gives us reports on our finances. Mrs Choy helps the School Council by coming to meetings and giving advice if necessary. Mrs McHugh and Mrs Gaunt meet with the children to discuss “Healthy School” issues. At our meetings we discuss issues raised by each class and once we have made a decision we will agree an “Action Plan” for resolving the issue. After going to a School Council meeting, Councillors will tell their class what has happened so that everyone knows what the Council is up to. School Council has been very busy this year; here are just a few of the projects which we have been working on:
• Chocolate Tombola to raise money for a good cause • Carrying out a Library Survey to get everyone’s ideas for the new library • Choosing and buying new toys for play-time • Asking our classes to recommend books for the new library • Helping to suggest new lunch-time clubs • New shelters for Upper IV and Middle IV to keep their bags
