Student Council 2023/24

The aim of the Student Council is to allow the children an opportunity to contribute to the positive development of our school and to let the students' voices be heard. Members of the Council are elected to represent their class and bring forth the opinions of all class members and not personal views. Due to the size of our school we have 2 councils. Senior Council is open to students from 3rd to 6th class and Junior Council is open from to students from Junior Infants to 2nd class. Children who are members of the student council are expected to be positive role models for the other students and to act responsibly at all times.

So far this year the Student Council have met to discuss how they can improve our school on a day to day basis from fixing broken doors to suggesting ways to make our yards safer but more fun. They have led assemblies on ways to improve our Well being. They have given great suggestions on how we can bring the senior and junior pupils together more during buddy reading, whole school play days and buddy classes.

The Student Council organised a long life food appeal at Christmas for St. Vincent de Paul.

The Senior council were a great help to the Parents’ Association during our Scholastic Book fair in February.

As part of our Wellbeing improvement plan the Student council offered their opinions with an online google form for the Wellbeing committee.
