Ireland Wood Primary School - Immerse, Inspire, Include

Our School » School Council

Welcome to our school council!

We are the School Council! We are made up of a child from each class from Years 1-5 and Year 6 is made up of our Chair, Vice chair, secretary, treasurer.

We meet every few weeks to discuss what is working well in school and what we can do to improve it. We seek the views of the children in our class and discuss their ideas in our meetings. We meet with Mrs Blackburn to suggest things that we would like to improve/change. We organise charity days and fundraisers. We use the money we raise to buy things for the school.

As a school we all have the chance to vote for our Year 6 councilors at the beginning of the year. Every child has a vote teaching us about democracy.

Meet Thor

This is Thor who we sponsor as a school. Last year we raised money from a weekly tuck shop and used it to sponsor Thor. Thor is an autism assistance dog providing life-changing support to his family in Yorkshire. He is a Labrador Retriever cross and his birthday is 1st April. He is going to come and visit us all soon.
