Mr Hunter
F.A.O. Register Teachers:
Pupil Council elections will take
place next week. The idea is to elect 2 Year Heads from each year group to be
that year's representatives.
There
will be ballot papers with the nominees' names alongside their mission
statement in your register folders this week. If you could make sure that
all students vote by numbering the nominees in order of preference (1= preferred).
Students have until Friday next week to vote. Pupil Council members will come round registration classes with the ballot box during registration. Alternatively, if you could put them in my tray, that'd be great.
Thanks for your help!
