pupil council<br />

Each class from primary one to seven<br />

chooses a boy and a girl to represent<br />

them on the school council.<br />

The council meets with the head<br />

teacher once a month to discuss<br />

issues of importance to the pupils.<br />

Last session the councilors wrote a leaflet<br />

about road safety and presented it to the<br />

Parent Council. It encouraged parents to<br />

drive and park safely around the school<br />

and encouraged pupils to walk to school<br />

where possible. The Pupil Council play<br />

an active role in improving the school<br />

and organising events. They successfully<br />

organised a range of pupil led ‘Golden<br />

Time’ clubs, which were attended by<br />

younger pupils. Two members meet<br />

with Mr John Wilson, East Renfrewshire<br />

Council’s director of education each<br />

term.<br />
