School Council visit Havering Council

The School Council went to the Town Hall to meet the Mayor of Havering & to learn about our local democratic process.

They were greeted by the Mayor & Madam Mayoress.

The Mayor talked about his role, his regalia and the links to Parliament. Pupils were able to try on his robes and hold the Mace.

The pupils sat in the Council Chambers, and learnt how to conduct an orderly, formal meeting. They learnt some techniques that they will bring back to their in-school meetings.

After refreshments, it was time to return to school on the train.


The current School Council will finish their term of office in July. New councillors will be elected in September by their classmates.
