Pupil Voice 

Here at Rimrose Hope Primary School, we endeavour to give all children lots of opportunities to share their thoughts and opinions and play an active role in the decisions that affect their learning and well-being.

Our children can do this formally, such as through the Curriculum Ambassador groups, or through surveys and questionnaires conducted by the Play Leaders, or through our Moodtracker programme that gives instant feedback about well-being to the school staff.

We also want to cultivate an ethos that empowers the children to regularly share their opinions with others. Our pastoral team are available throughout the day, but they are highly visible throughout the school at the start and end of the day and during less structured times such as play time and lunch time so that children can come and chat about whatever is on their mind.

Rimrose Eco Group

Rimrose Eco group is a long standing pupil voice group in school, they have partaken in local community group planting and whole school eco-friendly campaigns which was recognised by the local authority and the children were awarded an Eco Group of the year award. The children meet regularly to discuss ways to make our school environmentally friendly ensuring that we are recycling and preserving water usage by encouraging everyone in our school community to care for the environment. 

What is this year's main project? 

This year, the Eco group have been working hard to develop the quad area of school. They have planted an array of beautiful flowers and shrubs to turn a bland and un-inviting area into a beautiful, relaxing garden where children can go to enjoy reading. As well as planting beautiful flowers, the children have also created veg patches which have produced some very pleasing harvests this year.
