Welcome to St. Patrick’s School Council

Each year the children from Year 2 to 6 are elected to be our School Council representatives.

We are all very excited and feel privileged to have been chosen as your council representatives for 2023-2024. As your School Council, we meet at least once a month, with our School Council Leader Mrs Oldham, to discuss issues raised and organise whole school events. We regularly discuss concerns with our classmates and are proud of the way we work together as a team to ensure that all children at St. Patrick’s have a voice.

Aims of the School Council

To make sure that our school is a safe, happy and welcoming place for all children.

To make sure that all children have a place to voice their concerns.

To encourage all children in the school to suggest improvements.

To make sure any suggestions or concerns are listened to and acted upon where possible.

To help raise money for charity events and school funds

Last year, we improved the school meal choices by making recommendations to the Headteacher, raised funds to extend the range of equipment on offer at breaktime and lunchtime and raised awareness of mental health and wellbeing.

We are looking forward to working together to make further improvements to our school.
