Pupil Council Election Day 2022
30th September 2022
Council Candidates Counted
What a fantastic ‘Election Day’ we had in St. Brigid’s!! Candidates canvassed for votes with persuasive manifestoes and wonderfully creative posters and placards in the hope of securing the much coveted position of ‘Class Councillor’. We set up our own ‘Polling Station’ in the school to give the children a real life experience of what voting will be like when they become adults. They all were involved in the setting up and organising of the elections as well as casting their own votes. Identification slips were signed and checked, ballot slips issued, completed and posted, under the watchful eyes of the many diligent officials! The Counting Office was then opened and the official counters got to work, recording the final voting statistics which were announced at our Pupil of the Month assembly. The children loved the experience and learned a great deal. Thank you to everyone involved and a special word of thanks to Orlagh for her meticulous organisation!
We look forward to an exciting year of new ideas and hard work from our newly elected pupil council.
