School prayer.
Agenda.
Raised beds.
Newspapers and magazines for the library.

School Council have been approached to ask for contributions from Friends of School for the funding of further raised beds in Key stage one and a replenishing of soil for the Key stage two beds.
School Council voted unanimously that we felt it was important to be learning gardening and growing skills. We decided it would be a good idea if each class in Key stage two could keep their allocated bed throughout their years at the school so that growing projects could be continued.
Request to ask for funding agreed. Sophie and Jasmine volunteered to write the letter.

School council have been asked if we could have a selection of newspapers and magazines for the library. This has arisen as a result of the very successful Reading Revolutions initiative encouraging reading across the genres. Jasmine and Sam agreed to find out about the children's newspaper used by Mrs. Thomas, and Ben and Emilia offered the Horrible History magazines in their class to start us off.

A.O.B.
All Key stage two classes are concerned about lunch times. There is confusion about the times they should be going in to lunch. This issue has been raised before. Mrs. Rees assured everyone that it is currently being reorganised by Mr Lavis.

Emelia closed the meeting and thanked everyone for coming.

New School Council

 Last Tuesday in assembly the school said thank you to School Council for all the work they had done. We explained that as we are half way through the year it's time to elect a new Council and we discussed the roles and responsibilities.
Following this, elections were held in the various classes and I can now present ..........
                            Blandford St Mary's New School Council.

 Minutes of the first meeting. 
Mrs. Rees welcomed everyone and went through the responsibilities of school council.
We elected Emelia as Chairperson and Anna as vice chair. [Unanimously!!!]
Ben Willson volunteered to be our technical support and he will be assisted by Lukas.
We discussed the sale of red noses for Comic Relief and agreed that each day next week 4 children will take the noses into the classes for selling at 3 o clock.
We then took photos of the representatives from each class to display so that everyone knows who to approach if they want a matter brought to school council.
