Who are we?

We have a very active School Council which ensures that all of the children in the School have their views and opinions represented.  It is a very important part of Devonshire Primary School.  Each class from Year 2 upwards is represented on our School Council by two children, who have each been elected as a School Councillor by their class.  A new School Council is established each year.  Any child can be a School Councillor; it is a great opportunity for the children to play an important role in this vital part of School life.

Our photos are displayed on the School Council notice boards so that everyone knows who we are.

What do we do?

We meet regularly to discuss issues raised in class or whole School projects.  We always feed back to the rest of the School so that everyone knows how the School Council is working to help the School. 

We also organise fund raising activities. Look out for our termly cake sales!

In the past our School Council has helped buy benches for the playground, plants for the school grounds and has used the Sainsbury's vouchers that everyone collects to get lots of new Golden Time equipment.

We have recently represented Devonshire’s School Council at a Borough wide School Council event and met Paul Burstow, our local Member of Parliament.
