School Council Meeting - 21.10.24
This morning our school council members began to discuss lunchtimes. The first area we will be discussing is the selection of school meals on offer. We discussed which lunch options were our favourites. Council members have been given the task to go and ask their own classes what their favourite lunch time meals are too so that we can collect some data to present to Mr Brown and the school kitchen staff. This will help to inform them of the children's favourite meals, so that they can take this into consideration when making changes to the lunch time menu.
School council meeting - 4.11.24
Council members met this morning and began feeding back the data that they have collected regarding children's favourite school lunchtime meals. Some classes are yet to collect their data. We will meet again to finish the data and present our findings to Mr Brown and the school kitchen staff.
School Council Meeting - 18.11.24
