Year 5 Star Leader hustings and elections

This week, children across the school saw the British value of democracy in action as they took part in the democratic elections for next year’s Star Leaders. The Year 5 pupils, hoping to be elected, stood up and delivered prepared speeches, explaining why they thought they would be a good candidate for the role of Star Leader, based on the job description of the role. The children’s speeches were amazing and full of detail about themselves and how they use and show the school values. Children in each class then voted for the children they wanted to be the Star Leader for each of the constellations. The votes were added together and we now have a Star Leader for each constellation in each of the 4 classes (16 in total). The children with the second highest amount of votes are now the Deputy Star Leaders (16 in total).

All of the Year 5 children taking part in the hustings were very prepared and very brave to talk in front of so many children and adults. All of the candidates are wonderful role models for other pupils, showing a wide range of our school Values.  Congratulations to all those pupils who were elected into their new leadership roles.

Please see the list of our elected leaders below. These children will start their new roles in September.
