Student council 2024/25

St. Mary's National School believes that students have a vital role to play in creating a positive and welcoming school environment conducive  to learning and happiness. We believe that out Student Council plays a requisite role in achieving this. As part of our School  self-evaluation on Wellbeing, we are focusing on giving students more of a voice in our school.

The Election Process
Voting took place in September 2024 with children from First to Sixth Class asked to vote for the students they feel would represent their views best on a Student Council. The following children have been elected by their peers.
