School Council Leaders

Launde Primary School Council meet regularly to help ensure the school is the best it can be. Pupils from each Year 3 - Year 6 class are nominated by their peers to represent them at the meetings. We like working with children from different year groups, as part of our 'Launde family'.

Here is our latest meeting information: 

February 2025

07/02/2025

The school council met today. We reviewed the positive impacts of some of the new initiatives that have been launched in our school and how some of our previous actions from the School Council meetings were being evidenced. We discussed the issue around how we could solve the sharing of equipment at lunchtime and the School Council should be feeding that back to class. The School Council will be discussing with classes what clubs we think we need or need to have more of these next couple of weeks.

The School Council has been busy discussing with their classes what Launde's school values should be and what are important values that the children hold. Mr Doxey will be sharing these with the rest of SLT as we look at shaping the vision and values for the future. We reviewed some of the ideas for the toilet improvements, sadly we won't be buying any expensive Japanese-style electronic toilets for the foreseeable future.

A Happy New Year from your school council. 

We had a rearranged meeting today and discussed some thoughts around improvements we would like to see within the school's facilities. The school council will be coming back into their classes over the next few weeks to talk about values, as we look as a school at adapting Launde's values and vision moving forward.

Today Mr Doxey fed back about next steps for school improvement. The School Council would like to focus on improving the toilets and Mr Doxey has tasked them with getting feedback from their classes about what to focus on and how we could improve them. The School Council helped decorate the Christmas Tree these last two weeks and it looks brilliant in the main hall. We discussed plans for next term and the School Council is looking forward to doing some learning walks and helping the SLT in the Spring term.

Today we fed back about the behaviour curriculum and recognition in school again. The school council felt that lots more positives were happening now and that everyone was lining up better after break and lunchtime too. We discussed the exciting opportunity with the Christmas tree. This should be arriving 2nd December. The school council will be doing some class voice soon using their notebooks to help them remember for both feeding back and collecting thoughts.

Today we reviewed how our behaviour curriculum and recognition has been going in classes and discussed where we could make it better. We talked about if there were other activities we could have for break or lunchtimes. The children talked about how everyone had been enjoying the exciting anti-bullying week and all the activities the school has put on for the children.
