School Council Brainstorm Ideas for a Hackney Council Competition

In our School Council’s most recent meeting, the children brainstormed Winter Gritter Truck names for a local competition organised by Hackney Council. The children had the task of creating names for Winter Gritter Trucks and they came up with some creative and fun names such as Ice Slayer, Old McGritter, Ice Smash and Gritty Cream Pie.
