The Kirkby Schools Council is the pupil voice of the Kirkby Collaborative of Schools.
The Council is composed of pupil representatives from the fifteen Collaborative schools and meets regularly at Eastcroft Park Primary School.
The Kirkby Child
The key theme for 2016-17 is the development of The Kirkby Child. The fifteen schools are working together to develop an agreed set of core values and skills which our Collaborative community deems important for students to work towards both in and out of school.
Fairtrade Fortnight
Fairtrade Fortnight 2017 takes place from February 27th to March 10th
The theme this year is It’s time to put Fairtrade in your break. Each school is taking part in activities during the fortnight. There will be a Kirkby Schools Council meeting to discuss what schools are going to do during the fortnight, and share their ideas across the Collaborative community.
School celebrations and activities during Fairtrade Fortnight will be put onto the Collaborative website so watch this space!
