The new school year always brings lots of new activities and fresh energy with it. One of the many exciting activities happening now in Rutland National School is the Student Council. Two members in all classes from 1st to 6th were chosen. Every class listened to all the students who put themselves forward to be on the Student Council. They then voted on the children who they believed would best represent them. Many children had brilliant ideas about how we can keep making Rutland National School a fantastic place for learning and growing.

Well done to all children who spoke in front of their classes, for all the fantastic ideas shared and to the elected Student Council members!

Today, the Student Council made their badges, which they will wear on their uniform so all children can identify these great role models. The Student Council will next meet on the 25th October. Before that, each representative must record all the ideas and issues their class has that they would like the Student Council to know about and to act on if they can.

Emma and I are really looking forward to the next meeting where we can hear the ideas that are buzzing around all of the classrooms!
