Summer 2024
June 2024
On June 17th, we were lucky enough to have Karen, from Norse, visit with her kitchen team. School Council were able to take part in a tasting session for some new school meals. We were able to give feedback that Norse may action before they put these dishes on the menu.
On June 11th, School Council had their fortnightly meeting.
April 2024
Some of the school council members brought in the word that they are designing for a campaign that PC Houghton set up back in April.
Later in that session, we also set up a new play area, in the main playground, by taking play equipment over to the new shed and setting it up.
On 24th April, School Council met with PC Jack Houghton to discuss parking and traffic outside the school gates. Each member of the school council is going to design a poster for a word, which will eventually be put together into a campaign.

Together, we designed a template for our online safety competition that has been sent home via Parentmail for anybody that wants to enter the competition. Depending on the number of entries, school council will choose a shortlist, which will then be put out to classes for voting. The deadline for this competition has been extended to 14th April, 2024.
The children in school council have also been designing a suggestion box for their class. This will allow any member of the class to post ideas for school council to discuss:
