Pupil Leadership Team
2023/24
Your Pupil Leadership Team have been very busy since they were elected in August. We have been gathering ideas in our notebooks from all around the school and we are have decided what charities our school will support this year and the non-uniform days we will have.
Remember to speak to your Pupil Council Reps about ideas you have to improve and make a difference to our school. We have already listened to pupils' wish to have a whole school photograph taken and we have arranged for that to happen. You can keep up to date with what we are doing by reading our notice board and can contribute your thoughts to our ideas board.

House Captains
2023/24
Our school is divided into four Houses each named after a saint we admire-
St. Andrew House (Yellow)
St. John Ogilvie House (Blue)
St. Margaret House (Red)
St. Anne House (Green)
Each House has a House Captain and Vice-Captain who are elected by the whole school at the start of each school year. House Captains and Vice-Captains act as role models to other pupils, setting a good example with their behaviour and attitude to school. They are an important part of our school community and often act as ambassadors for our school.

The aim of the J.R.S.O. scheme is to empower children to highlight road safety issues within their school. At St. John the Baptist school our Road Safety officers, assisted by Mrs Maitland and Mrs Lewis, maintain a road safety noticeboard, deliver presentations to classes and assemblies and run fun, road safety competitions with fabulous prizes in the school. Our whole school was delighted recently when were winners in the J.R.S.O. Scrapbook Competition.
