6A and 6B have made a wonderful start to the school year.  We have focused on classroom expectations, school values and what it means to be a good leader. Students have gone through the process of creating a SRC/Sports Leaders poster to promote their ideas and qualities that would make them a good leader.  Hopefully you have seen the posters on display in the library windows. The next task was writing a speech.  The process included why they would make a good candidate, ideas for fundraising and improving areas around the school and how they can help all students at SPS. Speeches were then delivered via Microsoft teams to all classes in POD 2 and POD 3. All staff thought the speeches were great.  Congratulations to all the students that were elected, all other students will be given the chance to apply for and undertake a different leadership role around the school e.g IT, newsletter editors, playground leaders.
