Holy Cross School Ambassadors

They represent the views of other pupils and make a positive contribution towards school life.  Our ambassadors meet at different times of the school year to discuss projects or any ideas about their specialised area in school and any matters their class would like to raise.  They plan and carry out a variety of different projects, events and activities and then will evaluate the outcomes and impact of they have had on the children and community at Holy Cross.
