Quotes from Year 7 PDG pupils

I like being a member of the Pupil Development Group because: 

 

It helps me get to know people I don’t know

We go on fun trips

All of the fun stuff 

All of the fun stuff we get to do!

I find it good to be involved in something nice and meeting lots of nice people

It’s nice to be involved with other activities and meeting up and having other opportunities. Meeting new friends

We get to do lots of activities, it takes my mind off a lot of things
