School Council

November 2024 Up-Date

This week, I met with the School Council to discuss the autumn programme that the children will be leading for the school. Their first main project is the Travel Plan initiative and they would like to start this initiative by running a Poster Competition that helps reduce congestion at the school gates at morning drop-off and pick-up in the afternoon. Ideas for the key messages on the poster are:

  • why drive if you can walk?
  • driving to our gates isn't safe
  • parking away and walking the last 10 minutes is safer and healthier
  • be considerate of our neighbours
  • our school environment doesn't need car fumes!

Posters can be completed at home and need to be brought into school and handed to class teachers by Monday 25th November. Prizes will be awarded in the Monday Assembly, and winning designs will be used on the gate and fence at the front of the school, on the school website and shared with the local authority.

 

Rotakids and School Council Non-Uniform Day

The School Council will also be working with the Rotakids to run the highly popular Hot Chocolate Reindeer stand at the Christmas Fayre this year. To raise funds to buy the ingredients, the School Council have asked for a non-uniform Day on Friday 22nd of November. Any donations are warmly welcomed and should be handed to the School Councillors who will be on the playground on Friday morning next week.
