Children's Roles

At South Marston, we believe children should play an active role, take on responsibilities, promote citizenship and engage with their school community. This prepares children for life in the wider world. Throughout our school, many children take on school roles and responsibilities. 

Our School Council

Our School Council gives children the opportunity to share their ideas and make a positive difference in our school.

Each class has representatives who listen to the views of their classmates and bring these ideas to School Council meetings.

The School Council works together to improve our school by discussing ways to make it an even better place to learn and play. They help organise events, support fundraising activities and encourage everyone to have a voice.

Being a member of the School Council helps children to develop confidence, teamwork, leadership and responsibility while promoting our school values.

Our School Librarians 

School Librarians

Our School Librarians play an important role in promoting a love of reading across the school.

They help to keep the library organised and tidy, recommend books to other children and support younger pupils in choosing books to read.

The librarians encourage everyone to enjoy reading and help create a welcoming library where children can discover new authors and stories.

Being a School Librarian helps children to develop responsibility, organisation, confidence and leadership skills while sharing their enthusiasm for books and reading.

Our Worship Council

Our Worship Council helps to plan and lead acts of collective worship across the school.

The children work with staff to prepare assemblies, choose themes, prayers and readings, and encourage everyone to reflect on our school values.

Members of the Worship Council help create meaningful and inclusive worship that brings our school community together. They also welcome visitors and support special celebrations throughout the year.

Being part of the Worship Council helps children to develop confidence, leadership, responsibility and respect for others.

Our House Captains

Our House Captains are positive role models who lead and encourage their house teams throughout the school year.

They help to organise and promote house events, encourage teamwork and support younger children during competitions and activities.

House Captains celebrate the achievements of their teams and inspire everyone to do their best while demonstrating our school values.

Being a House Captain is a position of responsibility that helps children develop leadership, confidence, communication and teamwork skills.

Our Eco Council

Our Eco Council is passionate about caring for our school and the environment.

The children work together to encourage everyone to make environmentally friendly choices, such as reducing waste, recycling and looking after our school grounds.

The Eco Council helps to organise projects and campaigns that promote sustainability and inspire others to protect the world around us.

Being a member of the Eco Council helps children to develop responsibility, teamwork, leadership and an understanding of how they can make a positive difference to the environment.

School Monitors

Our School Monitors are responsible and reliable role models who help the school day run smoothly.

They support staff with a range of tasks around the school, welcome visitors, and help younger children whenever needed. They also encourage everyone to follow our school values and take pride in our school community.

School Monitors lead by example through their kindness, respect and positive attitude, helping to create a happy, safe and welcoming environment for everyone.

Being a School Monitor helps children to develop responsibility, confidence, leadership and teamwork skills.
