Student Council

The student council is a formal group of pupils who act as representatives of their classmates in discussing school issues with the Principal and staff. Children who join the student council are involved in organising events for the entire school to enjoy, have their opinion heard and counted on a range of important topics, and help shape the future of NEW Academy.

50 Things to Do Before Leaving NEWA

To help ensure all our students experience a range of activities, the student council at NEWA have created an exciting initiative called “50 Things to Do Before Leaving NEWA” . This document serves as a guide for students, encouraging them to engage in various experiences throughout their time at school. By completing these activities, students can gain new skills, make lasting memories, and enjoy a well-rounded education. The list promotes participation in both academic and extracurricular activities, fostering a vibrant school community.

The activities on the “50 Things to Do Before Leaving NEWA” document are diverse and imaginative, allowing each student to discover their passions and interests. From participating in school clubs and sports teams to volunteering for community service, the list is designed to include something for everyone. Additionally, the student council has ensured that the activities span a range of challenges and experiences, encouraging students to step out of their comfort zones. This approach helps to build confidence and develop essential life skills.

Moreover, the initiative encourages camaraderie and teamwork among students. As students work together to complete various tasks, they strengthen friendships and create a positive school environment. The challenges included on the sheet can also serve as conversation starters, allowing students to connect with peers they might not otherwise meet. Overall, the “50 Things to Do Before Leaving NEWA” initiative not only enriches individual experiences but also strengthens the bonds within our school community, making the educational journey more enjoyable and fulfilling for everyone.
