School Council

2024- 2025

September 2024

We are excited to introduce you to our School Council of 2024-2025, dedicated to working together to support and enhance our school environment. The School Council will work along side Mrs Davey and play a vital role in fostering communication between our school and community ensuring that every voice is heard. By organising events, providing input on school policies, and contributing to important decisions.

We look forward to all working together to make our school the best it can be!

There will be another 2 positions out for application for the school council shortly!

Today our school council had their first meeting to discuss issues, concerns and new ideas for our school!

We looked at different ways we could get the voice of both pupils and staff in school to make positive changes...

School Council 2023 - 2024

St Alban's School Council members have been extremely busy since taking up their posts in September 2023.  Our children were elected democratically as council representatives from Whitby, Fountains, Kirkstall and Rievaulx classes. 

Please take a look below at some of their proud moments...

FOOD AWARE 

Our School Council and Mini Vinnies have started the Autumn Term with a 'Giving Project' for the Harvest season.

The children carried out lots of research about local food banks.

Decided on the food bank they wanted to donate to, through regular meetings and discussion. 

Created letters and sent these on to local Community Officers and Food Aware teams.

Used ART and CRAFT skills to create posters to promote their charitable project.

Demonstrated their wonderful COMPUTING skills and created a power point presentation for our whole school assembly. 

Presented an assembly to all of our KS1 and KS2 children in school about what food banks are and why they are so important.

Everyone at St Alban's are very PROUD of their hard work and hope that the food donations will help others in our local community! 

 Our School Council and Mini Vinnies even made it to...

Doncaster Radio!

This charitable event will help lots of local families in our community. 

   Thank you to everyone who donated what a HUGE success.

   We are all excited to engage in our next meeting to decide what to do next........

Our School Council and Mini Vinnies decided they wanted to learn more about our local community and spend time with different generations to see what new things they could learn and share to make our community a better place.

Through research and speaking to local residents a INTERGENERATIONAL day was organised at Harrogate Court Denaby Main.

The children and residents exchanged lots of knowledge and different experiences through games, discussions and activities!

This day was dedicated to our community and learning how we can have a greater understanding of different generations when we come together. 

School Council - Supporting Safer Parking 

We want to keep our community and children safe! Dangerous parking is an issue we want to address. Parking on zig-zag lines or the pedestrian crossing area can cause visibility issues to drivers and people walking the pavements.

Parking near our school entrance also causes access problems not only for the community but also for emergency services. We addressed this ahead on-  supported by South Yorkshire Transport and Community Officers!
