As they begin their duties, we introduce the dynamic dozen that form our Student Council for this academic year! Each member has a chosen specialism that they will focus on, and as a team they will represent the student body, implement ideas and run a wide-range of fundraising initiatives. Read on to learn more about each of our Student Council members.
