The council is made up of 2 representatives from each year group and meet with Mr Ripley (and other teach-ers) regularly to discuss how we can make things even better for our pupils at Lowther.

We are proud of the way we listen and respond to our children and the school council provides us with another great conduit for listening to the views of our children and ensuring pupil voice continues to be strong at Lowther.

The school council recently worked with environmental champions Sustrans to conduct a local litter pick around the Barnes area.

We are proud of our community and it was great to give something back.

The School Council’s new sports initiative for Thursday lunch-times has been a great success. So far we’ve done Dodge-Ball and Dance.

The dance really was a magic time — as it grew from a few children having a boogie to pretty much the whole school (including grown ups!) getting down!

We have just completed our regular survey of pupil views of the school.

This year for the first time the survey was put together by the School Council and Mr Tuffney.

The views that you and your children give us really allow us to shape Lowther into the school we all love. Thank you all for giving us such helpful feedback. You are all our key stakeholders and your views matter.

Please be assured that we will use the feedback given to us by the children to look very carefully at our provision and the way we do things. After all, their views are the most important of all.
