Pupil Groups

 

 

School Council and Children’s Rights

This pupil group will be responsible for providing the pupil voice in the strategic direction of our school. They will be responsible for carrying out learning walks, school self-evaluations, reviewing the schools aims and reporting to the Governors on a regular basis.

They will also be responsible for ensuring that as a school we adhere to the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child. They will need to review the rights and responsibilities that we base our behaviour policy on. They will evaluate our rewards and sanctions and, in conjunction with the Headteacher and teachers amend where necessary. They will be responsible for collecting and collating the house points and announcing in half-termly assemblies.

 

Charity Committee

This committee will be responsible for planning the programme of events which school participates in, in order to raise money for various charities. It will be important that these events are spread across the year and may need to be selective about which events we support. They will then be responsible for organising and advertising the events, collecting the money and reporting how much was raised. Some of these events may be in conjunction with the PTA and will therefore require collaboration with the PTA committee.

 

Junior Road Safety Officers.

This group will need to work in conjunction with our Community Police Officers, to ensure the roads around our school are as safe as they can be. Although only the year 5 & 6 pupils will be able to carry out JRSO duties in the morning, other year groups will be responsible for getting the road safety message out to all pupils and adults,  by designing posters and delivering assemblies to the rest of the school.

 

Sports Committee

This group will need to keep us fit! They will be responsible for working with the PE Co-ordinator to carry out audits of PE equipment to ensure that the school can deliver the PE curriculum effectively. They may wish to set up pupil led sports clubs for younger children, ensure children can have active playtimes. They will also support staff in the organising and running of school Sports Day, Junior Triathlon and Elf Run.

 

Digital Leaders

This committee will be responsible for supporting the person in charge of ICT in auditing resources when required. However, their primary role will be supporting all staff and pupils with ICT issues as they arise. Training will be provided, so that children are equipped to carry out these duties. 

 

Wellbeing

The wellbeing committee will be responsible for ensuring all children in our school feel happy and safe. They will be the voice of the children and develop ways in which we can support each other. They may deliver assemblies to advise children and staff on wellbeing issues, and what to do if they need support or help. They will look at implementing systems where children can easily let staff know that they require support as well as systems where they can help themselves.

 

Environment Committee

The environment committee will be responsible for keeping our school eco-friendly. They will need to support the teacher in charge in gathering evidence to ensure we maintain our platinum flag status. Older members will be responsible for carrying our recycling duties in conjunction with our school caretaker and ensuring ‘roly pig’ is rolled on a weekly basis. During the gardening season their help with gardening club will be invaluable. It will also be their responsibility to liaise on the maintenance of our outdoor environment and develop its use.

 

Criw Cymraeg

This committee will be responsible for driving forward the bilingualism in our school. They will support the teacher in charge of welsh in the running of a welsh club and ensure that the welsh language is prominent throughout the school. They will encourage all members of the school community to speak welsh around the school and ensure that printed welsh is evident on displays.
