Hannah Kearns, 6th Year Prefect, summarises all the work that the Student Council has been involved with this term, including the celebrations for the Diamond Jubilee.
The last term has been very busy for the Student Council: from helping out with the launch of our book '60 Years A Growing', to organising Open Day and the Diamond Jubilee Concert, to Mitzvah week and finally to organising elections for the new prefects. We have certainly been kept on our toes!
As the current prefects are coming up to the Mocks and with the exams in June approaching, this is our last term as hed of the Student Council. I speak on behalf of us all when I say it has been a wonderful, action-packed last few months. We thoroughly enjoyed our time on the Student Council and wish we could remain in practice!
