School Council

Welcome

Shamrock Council
 
Saint Patrick's School Council are a hard working team of dedicated children. The School Council are very busy and pride themselves on making a positive impact on their school. We meet on a fortnightly basis and carry out tasks in between meetings.
 
We have a Foundation Council which is made up of two children from Years 3-6. These children stay on the Council until they leave for High School. Each Year, the Foundation Councillors are joined by two representatives from each class in Years 2-6. Class Representatives are elected by the children in each class. Children are a Class Representative for one academic year. 
 
Check out this area to find minutes of School Council meetings, previous and current projects! If you have any ideas for the School Council, look for a rep who will be happy to bring ideas forward to the next meeting!

School Council Applications 2019/ 2020

Hello everyone.
This year the Foundation Members of the School Council decided to change the process of application. The application process will now be similar to applying for a job. Foundation Members have worked very hard together to write a job description and create an application form.

To apply to be a Class Representative

please follow the steps below:

• Read the job description and decide if you should apply.
• Download and print the application form from the School Council area of the website.
• Complete your application form and submit it into the School Council box on the display in the Junior Hall.
• The Foundation Members of the School Council will read and consider all applications before shortlisting to 6 applications per class.
• The short listed members will then present to their own class who will then vote for two members per class.
