Friday 9 June 2023 Mock Election Week It's been a busy week at HJS with our mock election week with six Year 6 candidates running to be Headteacher for the day. It started on Monday with Lewis, Emily, Dolcie, Erin, Finley and Charlie delivering their speeches in assembly. This was followed by canvassing for votes on the playground and designing some of the most creative and eye-catching posters we've ever had. On Thursday, everyone in the school had the opportunity to vote for their preferred candidate at our polling station. This ran smoothly due to the well prepared and organised Year 5 School Parliament members.
