Class Election Spring 2014

The Senior Room conducted a full ‘general election’ in Spring 2014. Candidates were drawn up following an anonymous nomination process. The pupils then organised themselves into ‘parties’ or chose to remain independent.

They then had to prepare their own campaign literature. Then it was all put to the test in what turned out to be a very lively (and funny!) debate. Everyone voted on a ballot paper prepared by Ciara Maher, 4th class. There was a presiding officer, plus assistant. Papers were franked and voting went ahead. We used the PR system for counting. The count was public. Congratulations to Cian Maguire, 5th class who topped the poll. Well done to all for putting themselves up for the process.
