School Council

Why do we have a School Council?

Welcome to our School Council

Our pupils are the most important members of our school community and at The Avenue Infant School we like our children to have a strong voice within our school. The purpose of the school council is to encourage children to help in making important decisions regarding improvements to our school and get involved in issues that concern them in and around school.

Welcome to the new school council. They have already started their new project this term and are doing an incredible job.

September 2025 – July 2026

School council have had a busy start to the school year.

November

In the autumn term, we learnt Christmas carols to sing in the local care homes. They met at lunchtime to practice singing carols. They were full of enthusiasm and worked so hard learning all the words!

January

School Council have been busy making posters to promote saving energy.They will be doing an assembly next week to talk about ways to save energy at home and school.

Later in the school year we will be involved in the national Walk to School week and making posters for the annual family and community fun day.

Newsletters

Our School Council has been busy producing their first newsletter.

What does the School Council do?

Every term we run an election to vote for two new representatives from each class. They meet regularly with Mrs Bolter to speak about what their class are interested in or any issues they have. They will also give feedback to their class about what was discussed at the council meeting to help keep every child informed.

Every member gets a chance to speak at the meetings and when we have finished, we vote on the best ideas and then start to implement them.
