School Council Trip

The school council trip was AMAZING! We went on a coach with the other school council children to the council houses. When we got there we were allowed to go upstairs into the Chamber. We all had a name tag to tell us where to sit. When the Mayor arrived he showed us how to press the button to talk through our microphones. It was cool! We got to ask the Mayor questions and hold our very own school council meeting right there in the Chamber like real Councillors!


We had the very important job of deciding which shaded area we would like to buy as part of the 'Sensation Activation' Rolls Royce project. We talked about the good and bad things of each type of shading and said what we liked and disliked about them. Eventually we decided we liked the wooden shading best because it is waterproof and it will help to keep us sun safe.

After our meeting we got to see the Mayor's office! He showed us a big clock and a chair that had been sat on by Queen Victoria! We liked the swords and weapons that he had hung on his walls.

The trip was awesome and we want to go back!
