Junior Alleynian 2023

SCHOOL COUNCIL

these people have included teachers from the Senior School, a governor and a former headteacher!

n At the beginning of the year, every class from Year 3 to Year 6 votes for one pupil to be a representative for them. Those interested make a short speech to convince the class about all the benefits of them being chosen, such as sharing common ideas and what they could include to make the school better. Once these results have been announced, they meet at least once every two weeks. We have discussed various issues within the School Council meetings and these often take place in assembly or break time. We have also had many visitors talk to us about different things ranging from wellbeing lessons to how we work. Some of

Some things we have discussed and resolved are spelling tests and how many words the different years should be given, the name of the House competition (‘House academic’ to ‘House point effort’) and we will have exciting new ping pong tables coming soon! (Much to the thanks of the Friends of Dulwich College who have also helped the Junior School throughout my time in the College and before).

Augie, Year 6
