School Council

Please give your ideas to these children to help us to make Grazeley School even better.

School Council

Our school council consists of two members from each class from Year 1 to Year 6.  They have been elected by their class to represent their classmates’ views and to be part of making improvements to the school.  They meet fortnightly with Miss Easton to discuss problems raised, finding solutions where possible and carrying out the ideas they have discussed.  The School Council are supported by two clerks who take and distribute minutes of the meetings, keeping the School Council board up to date.

December Update

We had a very special visitor to our school council this month. She is called Yuan Yung and she represents this area in the houses of parliament. She joined our school council meeting to start with in the staff room. We gave her some lemonade and biscuits and we asked her lots of questions which she answered.
It was very interesting. Then we brought her into the hall and she told the whole school things about the houses of parliament and what she does there. She encouraged us to write letters to her to tell her what we think is important. She will do everything she can for this area.
We have added her response to the visit below.

Our email received from Yuan Yung following her visit tot the school:
Yuan would love if this was just the start of the conversation with the children (and staff) so please do encourage them to write to Yuan if they have any questions or issues they wish to raise with her. She will always try to make time to write back personally to children and often comments that they tend to be the only letters she receives on colourful stationery! 
 
If your children have any issues they wish to raise with Yuan they can write to her at The House of Commons, London SW1A 0AA

November Update

School  Councilors have all been elected.  You can see their pictures on the school council page. Our first meeting was all about introducing everyone to the school council meetings. We elected our Chair – Valerie and our Vice Chairs – Polly and Lily, and we watched a video about how to do a meeting. We have talked to our classes about what they want us to do to make our school better and now have a long list of things that we want to do this year. We are currently talking to Mrs Critchlow, Mrs Teale and Emma from the PTA to find out what we are going to be able to do this year. Once we have done that we will update you. We have lots of exciting plans.
