Our Pupil Parliament
Our Pupil Parliament on BBC
At the start of this year, we held a very special whole school assembly to announce our new leaders in school for this academic year. During the appointment process, staff received an incredible 450+ pupil applications for 9 different leadership groups/roles within our school. We were blown away not only the quality, but the variety of application: letters, posters, speeches, small group interviews, annotated drawings and PowerPoints! To see such a wealth of children actively wanting to promote our school mission of ‘HANDS – to make a difference!’ - was incredible!
In total 256 leadership roles were announced, with each pupil coming to the front, receiving a leadership badge and being acknowledged and congratulated by the entire school. (No pupil was allowed more than 3 leadership roles to allow for whole school equality, inclusion and so as not to overwhelm any one pupil with too much responsibility!)
Within each leadership group a ‘Minister’ was announced who would represent that group in our brand new Pupil Parliament. Please congratulate not only our 256 appointments, but our new ministers of school:
| Minister of Equality – Farran Y5 (Diversity Defender) | Minister of Worship – Arwen Y6 (Pupil Chaplin) |
| Minister for Sport – Eddie Y6 (Sports Leader) | Minister of E-Safety – Ralph Y5 (Digital Leader) |
| Minister for the Environment – Thomas Y6 (Green Team) | Minister of Reading – Eleanor Y6 (Librarian) |
| Minister of Culture – Leo Y6 (Language Ambassador) | Minister of Wellbeing – Athena Y6 (Mental Health Champion) |
| Minister of Community – Lily-Jean Y6 (FOS Junior) | Minister of Charity – Cassidy Y6 (Charity Leader) |
| Minister of Inclusion – Aggie Y6 (Dyslexia Ambassador) | Minister of Health – Finn Y6 (Mini Chef) |
Each class also has voted for its newly elected ‘Members of Parliament’ to be their voice within the parliament. Congratulations to our;
Y3 Ministers: Meave, Rose and Leyla
Y4 Ministers: Anakin, Sophie and Alex
Y5 Ministers: Poppy, Olivia and Rufus
Y6 Ministers: Iris, Kaya and Lily
We know you will all work hard to help all pupils and staff ‘make a difference’ to our school, local community and the world.
