College Council

The College Council is organising a collection of food donations for the Wandsworth Foodbank that will open in April 2013. Tutor groups are competing to see who can get the most points by bringing in some of the food items listed below. The Trussell Trust, a charity that provides emergency food for people in the UK, needs 3 tons of food before they can open their doors to needy families in our local area.

The College Council is made up of a elected students from each year group. They meet regularly and organise projects aimed at benefitting both the College and the wider community. The College Council is student-led and ensures that all students have a voice within the College.

As well as campaigning for the refurbishment of the boys toilets (completed in Sept 2012), the College Council has run a number of fundraising activities and events including: a community music evening, Ernest Bevin Iron Man competition, Student Leadership training and improving recycling within the College.

Besides its continued support of local charities including Trinity Hospice and Motor Neurone Disease Association, the College Council also supports the DEOMA (Diana Elisabeth Ochola Memorial Aid)school in Uganda that was set up by Florence Ochola in memory of her daughter.

"The College Council provides the whole school with a voice and an opinion on important issues. Furthermore it allows students to convey their own view on what they think is important to them and to other students. The College Council provides an important connection between staff and pupils."

"Over my years at the school (now in my seventh and final year), I've watched the council go through many changes, growing into a more powerful force of change. The council is and always has been there to pose the questions for which one voice cannot be heard."
