Working together to make a difference.
An emergency meeting was called today to discuss the earthquake crisis in Nepal.
Jodie chaired the meeting in the absence of Henry.
Most children had heard of the earthquake and the terrible conditions that the people in Nepal are living in at the moment. We, the school council, felt strongly that we would like to raise money to help provide emergency care for these people.
Several fund raising strategies were discussed but we decided on a sponsored run around the running track. After some discussion, we decided YR should try for 2 laps, KS1, 4 laps, and KS2, 6 laps.
The organisation of this event was discussed and a letter to parents and carers, drafted.
We also designed a sponsor sheet for children to take home and collect sponsors.
It was agreed that each class would organise their own event during the week beginning 14.5.15.
Mrs. Rees thanked everyone for their enthusiasm and quick thinking.
