Meet our new School Council!

28 Mar 2024

We turned our school into a polling station for the day and all of our pupils voted for their two chosen candidates for their class. After the voting took place and all votes were counted we were delighted to inform the chosen candidates that they had been elected. We caught up with them to find out a bit more about why they wanted to be part of the School Council and what they hope to achieve in their new roles!
