School Council Elections: This year Head Pupils and the new School Council will be elected before the end of term so they are ready to start the new term from the beginning. Next week will be a good time for children who wish to be considered for School Council and/or Head Pupil to put up posters with their election promises and they will need to be preparing their speeches. This can be done with parent support. Monday 10th July is the date for potential new School Councillors to do their speeches to the school and for the vote to take place. Friday 14th July is the date for potential new Head Pupils to do their speeches to the school and Mrs Austin, followed by the vote. Mrs Austin will then interview potential Head Pupils on Monday 17th July. Children can go for both jobs but you do need to be in Year 5 or 6 to be a Head Pupil. School Councillors are selected from each year group. Pupils will have access to the Head Pupil job description via the Head Pupil board in school and may wish to speak to our current Head Pupils for advice before applying.
