Epsom Primary School
Starting off in 2024
We want to take a moment to say a huge thank you to our 2023 Student Council for all of your hard work in organizing and running all the events throughout last year. Your dedication and effort have truly made a difference and created so many memorable moments for all of us. We appreciate all of you.
Thank you to Nash M, Ayla B, Eh Tha Yu, Cooper D, Rylie M, Amelia D, Will B, Danika H, Mason C, Alexis M, Lucy J, Victoria P, Emme M and Aleah C.
2024 is now upon us and the election process will begin next week.
All classrooms from Grade 2-6 will have an elected class representative. Prep and Grade 1 classrooms will be given a nominated senior council member who will report to their classrooms and give them the opportunity to share their ideas. Student Council is a great leadership opportunity for our students and ensures student voice is activated across the whole school.
