future leaders
Our School Council consists of children from P1 to P7. Two children are voted to represent each class by peers. We meet to share ideas and comments about our amazing school and to discuss and plan future events.
The school councillors listen to ideas and take comments from the children in their class, ensuring everyone has a voice. The councillors have a very important role in our school and you can identify them by their school council badges. Can you spot your class councillor below?

Spring Term
Our wonderful and caring school council held a socially distanced meeting this week (Wednesday 24 March 2021) and devised a lovely idea to show they are thinking of others having successfully been awarded a £100 grant courtesy of Wheelworks. Pupils decided to purchase £50 of foods to donate to a local foodbank and have also purchased a number of Easter eggs to donate to the local community.
We've got more deliveries to make around the community tomorrow so keep an eye out for our lovely smiling faces! #cloughey #community #thinkingofothers #wellbeing #schoolcouncil

Our School Council asked their peers what they'd like for the playground. The resounding response was 'Scooters'. As you can see from the children's faces, they've been incredibly well received.
