School Council Update
This week we held our annual general election, with candidates from Y6 standing for election to one of the four senior roles on the School council.
Ten incredibly brave Y6 children put themselves forward as candidates for the four most senior positions on the council.
Every candidate shared their ideas and reasons for standing with the rest of the children, who listened carefully, before deciding who to vote for. Classes visited our SJF polling station, which had been set up in our Marie Kerley Library. The children had one vote and there were photos of the candidates to help them remember. Staff were also on hand if required. The children put crosses on their own voting slips before posting it in one of our official ballot boxes. The votes were counted once all the children had voted.
The child who received the most votes could choose the senior role they wanted to do. The child with the second highest number of votes then chose from the three remaining roles, and so on, until all the positions had been filled. This year two candidates tied in fourth place and agreed to share the role.
