The Big Ambition

It is really important that the pupils at West End Primary School have participated in The Big Ambition survey and had their say.

I want to ensure that the voices of all children in the Yorkshire and the Humber area are fairly represented in the findings so that I can share their views with the most senior members of the country.

I must reiterate that it is vital that all children have their voice heard through this survey because, as Children’s Commissioner for England, I have a statutory duty to protect and promote the views and interests of children. The Big Ambition provides a much-needed opportunity for the children of England to tell political decision makers what is important to them ahead of the General Election. I will be sharing their responses with Government to ensure that children’s voices are heard.

Volunteering at Horsforth Community Cafe

Our Year 5 children have been helping out at the Horsforth Community Cafe.  Over the past term, groups of Year 5 children have been volunteering in the Cafe each Monday.  They have thoroughly enjoyed preparing, cooking and serving food.  They have looked at food waste in our area, talked about food poverty in Horsforth and beyond and learned about some of the ways the community are support each other.
