On behalf of the Starks Field Primary School Council we welcome you all to the new academic year for 2022-23.

This week we held School Council elections in classrooms. Pupils had the chance to nominate themselves for a position on School Council and present their ideas to their class; following this all pupils from Year 1 to Year 6 voted for their preferred candidate. Mr Shewring was delighted to reveal the results and is looking forward to undertaking some exciting projects in the near future.

Our Spring term 1 school value is ‘self-responsibility’; one of the responsibilities undertaken by our School Council members will be to promote our values and plan an assembly about them.

After our first planning meeting, Council members will decide where their priorities will be this year. In what is already proving to be a challenging year, areas that we hope to look at will be focussed around becoming a more eco-friendly school by reducing our single-use plastic usage and recycling more. We will also be continuing our work around Black Lives  Matter and ensuring that we challenge racism, become an actively anti-racist school and learn more about the achievements of people from Black and ethnic minority backgrounds.

We will keep you informed here of the work of our School Council and look forward to seeing its impact on school life over the coming months.
