What does the School Council look like at Cwmaber Junior School?

We are very lucky to have hard-working School Councillors at Cwmaber Junior School. The School Council consists of eight pupils (two from each class) and Miss Knight, who helped us decide on the focus for the meeting.  She takes formal minutes which are displayed on the Pupil Voice School Council board.  We have achieved our Bronze and Silver Right Respecting School Awards and are currently working on our Gold!!
