An exciting day for School council.

Today School Council took part in the very important process of interviewing candidates for the position of Acting Deputy Head while Mrs. Harris has her baby.
We saw three candidates and asked them questions about themselves, their teaching career, their approach to managing behaviour and their reasons for wanting to join our school. We really enjoyed talking to all the candidates and felt each had strengths and lots to offer our school. We finished our discussions by asking if they thought they had a sense of humour and what was their favourite joke! We learnt a lot from that one!


Later Emma and Leah as our Rights Respecting Representative attended the Network School Council meeting at ABW  with Mrs, Rees. Today we added Responsibilities to our Blandford community charter. We also discussed opportunities for the network primary schools to join together to share resources and activities.We came up with some great ideas like a whole network fair, a huge talent competition, sports, art, dance, music events or even a giant picnic.......... Watch this space!

School council met and discussed the success of Enterprise week. We also discussed ways of improving our outside area. We decided to take responsibility for a grand litter clear up. A rota of S.C. litter pickers will be posted on the notice board. The raised beds also need to be prepared for Spring planting so any volunteers please contact us!   More details see minutes of the meeting.
