School Council gives our children a voice in the development of Stannington Infant School and the local community. Children are elected annually and the council has two representatives from each Y1 and Y2 class. School Council meetings are held regularly, usually twice each half term with Mrs Everitt.
We believe that the School Council encourages children to understand and value the ideals of democracy and citizenship. Each year our council makes links with other local schools, which can include joint projects, visiting each school and sharing the best ideas.
This year we are working with our family of schools on a joint community project.
Here are our School Council representatives:
Year 2 DB Ava & Sophie
Year 2 H Eddie & Freya
Year 1 GE Isabelle & Matthew
Year 1 RM Esme & Ben
School Council has had a busy start to the year! School Council helped to organise a bun sale for Children in Need. It was a great success and the children loved helping out on the stalls. They used their money knowledge to work out the cost and change! Children also donated £1.00 to be ‘Spotty’.
School Council then helped to deliver a Children in Need assembly to the whole school. Thank you to everyone who supported this event, we managed to raise a grand total of £519.76!
