Rossmere School Council
The School Council is a vital part of our school community. Representatives from each class meet regularly with teachers, Headteacher and Governors to determine improvements for our school.

Lots of children have been adding to the school council notice board on the Learning Platform that they would like to ride their bike to school and have somewhere to safe to leave them. We have been awarded money to do this.
Well done to all those who suggested it.
