Our Student Council Elections

The new school year means the start of something very exciting at Grange – democracy in action!

On Wednesday 17th September, children in Years 4, 5 and 6 voted for their new Student Council representatives. Each candidate had the chance to share their ideas and promises in a manifesto speech before the big vote.

Then it was time to head to the polling station. Everyone placed their vote into the ballot box, ready to be counted.

After lots of excitement, the winners were announced – the new Student Council reps for each class!

Here are our elected members:

Year 6

Rumi Class: Laura & Israr

What does the Student Council do?

Our Student Council works hard to represent pupil voice across the school. They share the ideas of their classmates, help to make decisions, and plan projects such as improving playtimes, supporting special events and thinking of ways to make Grange even better for everyone.

Looking back…

Last academic year, the Student Council played a tremendous role in the school community. They:

• Helped to change and improve the lunch menus.

• Launched Radio Grange.

• Wrote articles and carried out interviews.

• Led a litter-picking day.

• Promoted safer crossing and road safety.

• Pitched their ideas at the One Hour World event.

• Created a mock-up of the mobile library and pitched it to Orley Farm.

 
A huge well done to everyone who took part – whether you gave a speech, supported a friend or cast your vote, you were all part of democracy at work!
