Welcome to our School Council!

Our School Council is made up of two pupils from each class, elected at the beginning of the year. Each representative was chosen due to their commitment to listening to all voices in the school and for striving to make a difference in our school community. The school council oversee all our school values and are considered excellent role models of these already.

We have elected a head boy and girl who will also be part of the school council.

Throughout the year, they will attend School Council meetings where a range of matters are discussed. The School Council are all striving towards the same common goal, which is to ensure the children of Ab Kettleby are proud of their environment, and are kind, self-regulated and respectful individuals, so that they leave Ab Kettleby with the skills to become life-long learners. 

Our head boy and girl are:
Head Boy – Noah  
Head Girl - Imogen

Our school council representatives are:
Bumble Bees – Leo and Grace
Honey Bees – Nathaniel and Annabelle
The Hive – Myles and Phoebe

Our focus has been ‘How to be  Good Citizen.’ For this, we have been thinking about how we can make a positive difference in our school and in the community. We stretched this further and began to look at the different charities that there are around us and what we can do to make a difference in ‘our world’.

During the Autumn Term, our School Council organised a cake sale in aid of Macmillan Cancer Support. We were hugely grateful to everyone who supported and/or donated; our grand total was an incredible £189.50!

    

Later in the term, we celebrated Children in Need. The team worked together to organise ways to raise funds and on Friday 17th November 2023, we had our very own Ab Kettleby’s Got Talent show! Each year group prepared an act to show off an impressive talent. We were blown away and raised a fabulous £133!

In the spring term, the team celebrated Number Day. We incorporated numbers into our outfits and enjoyed a day of maths.This was to support the NSPCC services like ‘Speak out Stay safe’ and ‘Childline’. Our final total raised on Number Day for the NSPCC is £95.75!   

              

            

Our recent event of Red Nose Day bought an amazing amount of £162.10 raised. The School Council team arranged for a joke competition to take place – we had so much fun reading through these and hearing some read out in assembly. There was an elected winner for the ‘funniest’ joke and we all celebrated with a great big laugh!

The team have done a super job enabling the school to work together as one family to change lives for others. We are looking forward to seeing what is to come in the summer term.
