On Wednesday 4th December, the Lower Fourth marked the end of their first unit of work in PDM by taking part in the Democracy and Decision Making Final. Over the past eight weeks, the girls have been working on ideas about how they can improve the School whilst working within a budget and as a team. The two best presentations from each form were presented in the Final, in front of their whole year group and a panel of judges made up of Mrs Clark, Mrs Butterworth, Mrs Hargraves and Deirdre Alden, the Local Councillor for Edbgaston. Ideas ranged from a Peace Garden, new bag storage, a visualiser in Food Studies and board games in the social areas. The judges were impressed with the ideas and the well-delivered and imaginative presentations. The winner will be announced in the Lower School Final Assembly, so stay tuned!
