Alsager Highfields School Council and Junior Safeguarding Team News
Yesterday our Junior Safeguarding Team and School Council representatives met with Lucie Ferneyhough,
Community Development Officer from the Cheshire East Council. Our children have important roles in shaping our school and being the voice for their peer groups to ensure everyone has the opportunity to contribute towards important decisions about our school community. Lucy explained her role working across Cheshire East with many organisations to help to improve outcomes for children and families, especially around mental health and wellbeing and the cost of living crisis. She finished our session by asking the children, 'How can I help?'. Over this term our representatives will be speaking to their classes to find out what we can do to improve our school and we will feed this back to Lucy around funding/grants we can apply for and what we would like for our school to be the best it can be. It was a fabulous session and the children asked great questions and listened well, representing themselves brilliantly as always.
