When Buxton Voices Meets;

This term Buxton Voices (our Student Council) will take place twice per month for each student member to discuss ventures, events and solutions to issues of concern - led by senior students and facilitated by staff at the school. These may include healthy life styles, consultations, safety, events or ideas for fundraising events.
