Fri 19 Sep 2025Pupil Voice Groups
We value the thoughts and opinions of all our children at Millfield and therefore have a wide range of Pupil Voice Groups within our school. The children who represent their peers in these groups ensure that the views of the children have a clear forum; this helps to shape the direction of the school. Most groups meet at least once a week. The children for these groups are selected in a variety of ways; sometimes they are voted for by their peers, while other times they are selected by their teachers.
School Council elections will be held on Monday, please see the email sent to Year 2, Year 3 and Year 4 parents/carers. Following the elections, we will begin organising our other Pupil Voice Groups, including:
Assembly Committee
Reading Rockets
Eco-Action
Peer Mentors
Sport Stars
Online Safety
We look forward to seeing children getting involved and having their voices heard!

Fri 19 Sep 2025We are delighted to share how well the children have settled into school. Over the past two weeks, we have been so impressed with their enthusiasm, positive attitude and eagerness to learn.
The children have adapted beautifully to new routines and have shown great curiosity and confidence in their learning. They are engaging well in lessons and are representing our school values of Respectful, Determined and Proud.
It has been a pleasure to watch them grow in independence and take pride in their work. We’re excited for the term ahead and all the wonderful learning experiences to come.
