School Council
Our School Council
At St. Breward Primary school we believe it is vitally important that all our children have the opportunity to contribute their ideas and opinions about life in the school.
What is a School Council?
Our School Council is made up of 1/2 representatives from every year group. The school council meets throughout the year. In these meetings children on the school council discuss a variety of suggestions and ideas to improve our school, as well as organising events to raise money for charity. Some of their roles include:
- Listening to the views and concerns of other pupils
- Representing the views and opinions of other children and discussing them
- Suggesting ideas to improve the school
- Thinking of ways to contribute to our wider community
- Fundraising for a selection of charities
- Having the responsibility for a budget
- Interviewing prospect staff to join our school
Red Nose Day
For Comic Relief in 2025 our school council put their heads together and came up with some great fundraising ideas. They wanted to do a break the rules day, where children were "fined" for coming into school wearing their own clothes or for bringing in a cushion to sit on in lessons amongst other ideas.
It was great to see so many happy and excited children enjoying this day that was created by the school council.
