Stradbroke Primary
Junior WardensWhat do they do?
Children are elected as Junior Warden’s at the start of each academic year. Each class from Years 3 to 6 democratically votes for one representative after potential candidates have filled in an application form (in which they explain how they are already contributing to the local area and reasons why they should be a Junior Warden) and shared their election manifesto.
This role is aimed at encouraging the children to appreciate, contribute and serve the school and wider Richmond community. As Junior Wardens, the children will develop their team spirit, self-confidence, and will give them a better insight into how our school community works. At the end of the academic year, the Junior Wardens will hold a presentation during KS2 assembly, where they talk about their experiences and the things that they have learnt throughout the programme.
Looking further ahead, the Junior Wardens will undertake a walk around the local area to identify things which could be improved either by the Junior Wardens themselves or by reporting our concerns to the relevant local authorities.

Our Junior Wardens
Our dedicated Junior Wardens provided a fantastic service for parents, carers and visitors on Tuesday through ensuring the safety of everyone entering and leaving the school.
We monitored road safety surrounding the school and drivers parking and stopping inconsiderately.
We will be continuing this service on a weekly basis throughout the year.
