School Presidents 2025-26

Each president prepared a speech to help them on their election journey, you can read their speeches below.

Andreea's Election Speech

My name is Andrea. I'm standing here today because I would love to be your school president.

To me being president isn't about being in charge, it's about being part of a team. A team that works together, supports each other and helps our school.

I believe that when we all work as one, we can do amazing things. Whether it's in the classroom, on the playground or during school events teamwork helps us solve problems, have more fun, and make sure no one is left out.

As your president, I will:

• Listen to your ideas.
• Support each student and make sure your voice is heard.
• Work with teachers, other leaders and YOU to make positive changes.
• And most of all, help create a school where everyone feels included, respected and proud.

We all have different strengths, but together we're stronger. Let's support each other, help each other grow and make our school feel like a place where everyone feels like they belong.

So if you want someone who believes in kindness and giving 100%, vote for me as your school president.

Thank you!

Chukwubata's  Election Speech

I give you a warm welcome on this day in September. My name is Chukwubata and I have put myself up here in hopes of becoming your new school president. As I stand here I see many individuals who are very keen about our one and only school. This is a school that can be number one in everything. I will try my absolute best while working with the school management to bring desired improvements before I leave primary school.

Our school is a Rights Respecting School and I believe everyone has the right to have their voices heard. I believe I should be your school president because I possess the attributes it takes to be a leader. Being school president is not about the position, it is about serving and being a servant to all in the best possible way. It is not being a boss or a bully, by listening to your views and ideas, I will then hopefully turn them into reality. I've also been a school counsellor in year 3 meaning I have more experience, and this was also when we became a Rights Respecting School. 

Our school motto is "PRAISE" pride, respect, achievement, independence, success and enjoyment. This is what it means. Certainly, everyone wants to be proud of who they are. Learning is an essential part of our life and when we do that we feel a sense of accomplishment and achievement. I've been in this school for 6-7 years and I can confidently say that this school has aspects we need to do more to improve on. Whenever we are doing anything, from writing, reading to speaking and physical activities, I believe everyone should do so with a piece of independence. I know many people from this school who are successful in their life journey, it is my aim for everyone to be like that. By working together to bring changes where necessary strongly believe that this will be achievable. Just like Mr November, no matter what we are doing, we should find enjoyment in everything we do. 

A year ago, I was on the football team. Although we didn't make it that far, there was one thing I learnt, teamwork makes the dream work. When I saw all the people skillfully passing the ball around, it seemed everyone was trying to score in the time they had. This is my time until I leave the school. The ball was the ideas and the goal was to get the ideas into the net/the ideas being done. This is what I pictured it to be like. 

Thank you for listening to my speech. I hope you choose me. I would like to end this speech by sharing with you a slogan that will brighten the rest of your day. It is a new academic year, a new beginning and all things will become new if we work together. Nevertheless, have a good day !

Hiya's  Election Speech

Good afternoon everyone!

My name is Hiya, and I want to be YOUR voice as school president. This isn't about me, it's about making the year I'm going to be here as special as I can make it for all of us!

Why vote for me? Because I listen and I care. I want to make school a place not only to learn but as well as enjoying the place.

My three main points:

• Better break times - I'll push to get our football goals properly fixed and bring back table tennis! Plus more activities for everyone, whether you love sports, want quiet spaces, or enjoy creative games. We work hard in lessons, we deserve to have fun at break and lunch!
• Your voice heard - I'll create an 'Idea Box' so you can suggest improvements and I'll take the best straight to our teachers.
• Amazing events - More themed days. special activities and unforgettable end of year celebrations because this is our year.

I won't promise impossible things like no homework or holidays, but I promise I will work hard every day.

Your vote chooses someone who will represent ALL of us, the quiet students and the loud ones, the sporty ones and the bookish ones. Someone who believes in fairness, fun and including everyone.

Vote me for president - let's make this year legendary together. Once again my name is Hiya!

Thank you!

Kasper's  Election Speech

Good afternoon staff and students my name is Kasper and I want to be school president because we need to make the school a better and safer place. I care about your voices care about making the school a fun place.

lf I am elected as your school president, I will focus on making our school a place where everyone feels included, supported and heard. I want to work with students and teachers to create more opportunities whether it is more fun events or improving the school. I also believe that your voices and ideas matter, so I'll make sure there are easy ways for everyone to share suggestions.

Together we can make our school not just a place to learn but a place where we want to go, if you give me the honour of your vote I will try to make Valence Primary School a school all of us can be proud of, and remember my name is Kasper!
