Meeting 1, Term 2 – VOTE NOW & INFORMATION!

The following ideas/things need to be voted on by your class.

Expert Learner Quality – Risk Taker:  Mr Norman’s class nominated another mascot.  Should the risk taker be Blue from Rio, or Room 16’s risk-taking mouse nomination?  Vote in the comments below.

Can your class suggest mascots for OPEN MINDED and COMMUNICATOR BEFORE the next meeting in Week 5…?

Discussion – Discos are scheduled for Week 9.  Your Rep has a list of points to discuss about ticket sales and options – how are we going to do it, should you have to pay for food and drink before the day, should you be able to buy tickets on the day?  Please vote and bring back your class’s suggestions ready for the next meeting, or add your thoughts below.  (See minutes for extra details)

SRC boxes will be placed in all buildings so that if classes don’t have meetings, kids can still have a say.  They will be collected by the Execs and added to the Agenda if suitable.  Please talk about NOT putting SILLY comments in.

Positive Yard Behaviours – These slips are taken to the office.  The Execs will now collect them once a fortnight and write a newsletter article to acknowledge those kids who have been given a slip.

Pet Day – Laura B said that her class were wanting to have a pet day week one term where all the kids get to bring their pets.  Please discuss with your class and either comment below or report back at the next meeting.

If anyone wants to see the movie Jed and Kern made of Mrs Woollard’s retirement, go to S:/Store drive, then open the folder called Retirement Photos and you’ll find it in there.

Meeting this week – Has your class unearthed a mascot for risk taker?

EXPERT LEARNER MACOTS

Don’t forget that this Friday is our first meeting for the term.

We will be voting on a mascot for the Expert Learner Quality Risk Taker and calling for suggestions for the qualities Open Minded and Communicator.  Can you please discuss this at your class meeting and come prepared with a clip(s) that are great mascots for these qualities.

Well done everybody on working as Penguins as a team to surprise Mrs Woollard last week at our special celebration – you were all fantastic!

Surprise!

Guard of Honour for Mrs Woollard

What a fabulous afternoon we all had yesterday throwing Mrs Woollard a surprise retirement party.  Our students wanted to do something special, so the SRC brainstormed ideas, classes voted on what to do and then the SRC worked hard to co-ordinate a WHOLE SCHOOL event.

We managed to trick Mrs Woollard by staging a whole school emergency evacuation, then Mr Hunt counted down from 5 and we all yelled “SURPRISE”.  Mrs Woollard was very surprised.  The whole school then moved to the big shady tree where the Execs made a speech, the choir sang a song chosen by the Execs (thanks Mrs Woodlands for your fabulous support and work once again) and then classes presented Mrs Woollard with cards and flowers.

To finish off we made a guard of honour from the shady tree to the front office.

The students have appreciated and valued all the hard work and wonderful changes Mrs Woollard has made to our school… And the Year 7 student executives worked hard using the expert learner qualities of teamwork, active thinking, organisation and persistence to make it happen.  Well done to our Year 7 leaders on a fantastic effort leading the school – and look out Malcolm Turnbull, you may have some competition! 🙂
