Ethos and Eco Ambassadors
We are very proud of our Ethos and Eco Ambassadors! At St. Bridget’s our children’s opinions, experiences and issues are central in our decision making, policy and practice, so the role of our Ambassadors is essential in hearing the voice of our pupils.
The Ambassador group is made up of 16 children, 2 per class from KS2. These children represent the views of each class and provide “grass roots” feedback to life at our school.
The children help to drive our school's quest to be 'eco-friendly' and a positive force for good within our local community. Encouraging walking or cycling to school, reducing our plastic use, and choosing meat-free options at lunch time are just some of the child-led initiatives that we have put into place. They are an important part of our eco-award.
Their other role is concerned with the values and Mission Statement of our school. The children make links with our church, aid with our charitable giving and plan worship. This group also supports our Rights Respecting Schools agenda, ensuring that the UNCRC is promoted.
The School Council is facilitated by Mrs Ross and Miss Smith and we meet informally on a 2 weekly basis.
