What is the School Council?

The school council works to make improvements to our school and the way we do things at Gilded Hollins. We look around for things that could be better and discuss what to do. Everyone gets a chance to speak and when we’ve finished we vote on the best ideas and then start working on changing things. Sometimes we have to talk to teachers and sometimes we have to talk to our class.

Who are the School Councillors?

We have two representatives from each class. A good representative will speak at the council meetings about things that their class is interested in. They will also tell their class about what is going on in the council meetings and put the minutes up in the classroom.

Introducing Daisy, Sophie, Allanah, Ella, Leo, Brodie, Holly, Layla, Orla, Fred, Grace, Sofia.

Councillor - someone who has been voted for to work for their class mates on the school council

Motion - an idea for the council to discuss

Anti-Bullying Week 2025

We wanted to revisit what we thought of Bullying in our school so we developed a questionnaire for all the classes to complete.

From the results, we decided that we needed to revisit what bullying actually means - intentional, repeated behaviour that is unfair and harms someone else.

We presented an assembly to the whole school in Anti-Bullying week and we all wore odd socks to mark the occasion. 
In assembly, we launched a poster competition and the winners’ work will proudly be displayed in our ‘Kindness Corner,’. Everyone should be incredibly proud of their entries and their attitudes towards bullying.

Go Gilded!
