Appleton School Council
We are very lucky at Appleton to have a considerate and diligent school council who meet regularly to discuss issues, projects and put forward the views of their classmates.
Our council works together to think about ways to improve the school, looks out for issues to be dealt with, listens to other pupils’ views and most importantly cares about our school and is determined to make a difference.
Our school council members are elected each year by the pupils in their class and is managed by Miss Knowles. Each class from Year 2 to Year 6 elects two children to represent their class on the council.
We also have heads of each of our houses from Year 6 to represent our school.
