Trotts Hill Primary School and Nursery

School Council

Our School Council represents the views of all our pupils. It gives children the opportunity to make their voices heard and feel part of the whole school community.

 

The School Council is an important part of Trotts Hill and the children feel proud to be elected.  In July, the class vote for their representatives for the next academic year.  All children from Year 2 to Year 6 are given the opportunity to stand for election.  After making a speech to their class, their peers vote.  This is an important part of children’s experience of British Values and a democratic process in school. Children attend a fortnightly meeting with Mrs Wilby.

 

Our School Council Representatives for 2022/23 are:

 

  • Year 2 - Charlotte and Teddy T
  • Year 3 - Aaruhi and Scout
  • Year 4 - Izzy and Ella
  • Year 5 - A and Luke
  • Year 6 - Eryn and Scarlett

This year our focus will be to support the OPAL project, promote and celebrate the Junior Duke awards and to support a range of school events, including raising money for charity. 

Autumn Term 2022

Our new school council were elected in October and have had a busy half term. They have created an action plan for the year, and also supported Hello Yellow and Children in Need charity events. In class, they have acted as role models by promoting the introduction of the Junior Duke Award. We have also spent lots of time discussing the OPAL project, including coming up with ideas for resources and activities. Next term, the school council will also help to plan and lead OPAL assemblies.

Our School Council Representatives for 2021/22 were:

 

  • Year 2 - Grace B and Ewan
  • Year 3 - Lincoln and Florance
  • Year 4 - Olivia and Dexter 
  • Year 5 – Lois and Bella
  • Year 6 – Charlie Ta and Charlie Th

 

Summer Term 2022

During their final term in office, the School Council have been extremely busy. They helped to organise and promote Marathon May, sharing with their classes how regular exercise would benefit their health and wellbeing. School Council also led an assembly about the Junior Duke Award scheme we will be starting next year and did an excellent job. This term they also decided that their classes were not happy with sharing the classroom toilets so suggested trialling separate toilets for girls and boys. They have also made some suggestions for equipment to replace broken parts of the trim trail.

Our School Councillors have had an excellent year and should be extremely proud of their contributions - well done!

Spring Term 2022

This term our new school council have been getting stuck in to their new roles. We have promoted 'Eat Them to Defeat Them' within our classes and got the Games Club equipment ready for when it can restart. Some members of the school council spoke also about their role with our School Improvement Partner. 

Autumn Term 2021

As our school councillors missed the Spring Term, we decided that they would continue for the Autumn term. This term they have been involved in planning activities for Mental Health Monday (to be launched next term), supported whole school events such as Hello Yellow, Children in Need and the fun run, and discussed who they find inspirational. The school councillors also supported the election process for the new school council team. Well done to all of our school councillors, you did an excellent job this year and should be very proud.
