PUPIL VOICE
GROUPS
Pupil Voice Groups
At Boutcher we have a number of pupil voice groups. Through these, we actively encourage our children to develop their spiritual, moral, social and cultural awareness. These different groups enable our children to participate and influence decisions that affect them and give them the opportunity to develop their understanding of British values.
School Council
Our School Council is a group of elected representatives from Years 1-6. They meet at least once every half term to discuss school issues and offer suggestions to improve our school.
So far, this year the School Council have planned a community afternoon focusing on our wellbeing and to raise money to support the BBC’s Children in Need appeal.
Faith Leaders
Faith is one of our three school values and our faith group play an important role. They are responsible for guiding and supporting others during Collective Worship. They are responsible for planning and leading charitable fund-raising events as well as being ambassadors for their faith. Children from Years 1-6 are invited to become Faith Leaders and 2 children from each class are selected. They meet at least once every half term.
So far, the Faith Leaders have led our Remembrance Service. They also have plans to support Christmas Jumper Day, raising money to help other children around the world.
Eco Warriors
Our Eco Warriors are passionate about our school, community and the wider world. They look after our environment so that we can enjoy a bright future. Their primary aims are to learn about and raise awareness of current environmental issues. Children from Years 1-6 are invited to become Eco Warriors and 2 children from each class are elected. They meet at least once every half term.
So far, the Eco Warriors have presented at and supported Southwark Council’s Climate Action Launch. We hope to make positive changes to our school waste systems and create good life-long habits.
Reading Ambassadors
Our Reading Ambassadors promote a love of reading. They support their peers with book recommendations and offer suggestions on how to further develop the reading for pleasure in our school.
