Agenda

• Shoe box appeal
• Children in Need
• Playground Charter   

 Shoe Box Appeal.  School Council voted unanimously to support 'The Shoebox Appeal' again this year.
Francesca and Joe volunteered to introduce the initiative in assembly and others agreed to draw up posters. As the cost of putting together a parcel with the additional £3.00 delivery is quite considerable, School; Council decided to put a collection box in reception for anyone who would just like to make a donation.
All Shoeboxes will need to be in by 15th November, so we need to get started straight away.

Children in Need.. School Council also voted unanimously to support this. We decided that we should have a non school uniform day with £1. 00 donation, and that School Council should sell the new Pudsey wrist bands on the Weds, Thurs, and Friday.

Playground Charter. School Council discussed which of the Rights and Responsibilities we wanted to include in the new charter. We then thought about how we could use photographs to help younger children understand.
Finally we went out around the playground re enacting different scenes and taking photos for the Charter.

Agenda

• Thank you letter to Friends of School
• Playground Charter          

Mrs. Harris showed us all the new equipment for playtimes that the Friends of School has financed. This led to two jobs for School  Council. Firstly we composed a letter of thanks.
 Action   Anna will write it up in best and present it to the office for posting.
Secondly, we recognised the need to update and create a new attractive playground charter to make sure the equipment is used correctly.
Action. Mrs Rees will collect together everything we need to begin this for the next meeting.

Matters arising.
Representatives from two different year groups have been approached to look at behaviour at lunchtimes.
After some discussion School  Council agreed to mention it to class teachers so they can remind everyone that class charters and expectations for behaviour continue throughout lunchtimes.
We will review this at the next meeting.
