SCHOOL COUNCIL

Our School Council is here to represent the children in each of our classes. Our role is to express the views of fellow classmates and to discuss ideas that have been raised.

In our school council meetings we discuss ways of making Parkfield School a better place to be. After a school council meeting it is our job to feedback to our class and our teachers.

Sometimes guests are invited to come to our meetings so that they can listen to ideas and suggestions from Parkfield's Pupils.

At Parkfield School, we hope we are helping to develop life skills. We believe that by contributing their views and expressing their feelings, pupils will be able to voice opinions and find solutions to everyday problems as they grow up.

Our current School Council.
Mrs Marshall smiling sweetly in the hope that this school councillor gives her an easy time.		Mr Harris trying the same trick, as a school councillor quizzes him about school clubs.
"Can we please come and visit the new provision?"		Mrs Pulley looking thoughtful as this school councillor feeds back the last meeting to her.
Now onto school dinners! Our chef looks impressed with the school council's ideas for a new menu - Pizza, pizza and more pizza!		Mr Williams is 'grilled' by one of our School Councillors about playtimes.
As Clerk to our School Council, we have to smile sweetly at Mrs Davies. She is fantastic at our meetings... and she also brings the biscuits!		Now it's Mr Heeley's turn to be 'grilled' - This time about computer in our school.
Some of us go to help children in our Foundation Stage.		Who else can we grill? Off we go to the SEAL room to discuss behaviour rewards and sanctions.

Information from our School Councillors

"Hello, my name is Hamza. I am the Head Councillor. To be the Head of School Council, you need to have all our school key qualities. Being Respectful, tolerant, and co-operative are just some of them. When we have a meeting, we talk about how our school can be improved and any other problems that our classes are worried about. I have recently been elected and I am excited about my new role. I will try my best to do a good job. If you have any suggestions, or questions, tell your class representative, and we will discuss it at the next meeting. Thank you."

I will co-operate with people and do what's best for the School Council and the school. I will assist Hamza, who is the Head Councillor. I am a great spokesperson that will help me in this job. Thank you."
