The pupils of Melin Infant and Melin Junior Schools have always enjoyed a stong voice in their school and their wider community. The pupils of Melin Primary School is no different. Pupils have the opportunity to stand for election to our School Council, our Eco Committee and to stand for election as Ambassadors for the Children’s Commissioner for Wales.
Our School Council is made up of four pupils from each year group from Year 1 to Year 6. The children serve a two year term of office which means that the council can continue its work all year round. Our School Council will have a big part to play in shaping the way that our primary school runs, deciding what we need to improve and helping the teachers, governors and parents to improve it.
Our Eco Committee is made up of four pupils from each year group from Year 1 to Year 6. Both the Infant and Junior Schools have achieved the ‘Green Flag’ but we’re eager for the Primary to move onto bigger and better things to help our environment. The pupils will be creating a new Eco Action Plan to work on both sites to improve our Eco Footprint.
