Meeting with Bob Smith, the Chair of Governors
1. We looked at all of your ideas and spoke to Bob about them:
- Girls changing room for Upper KS2. The problem could be
solved by the boys and girls getting changed on time and
respecting each other. The teachers would need to monitor this.
- Some children want school footballs to play with at playtimes.
We used to have footballs but they were kicked over the fences.
Harry suggested having a bigger fence. Adrien reminded us that
we have a not over-the-shoulder rule.
- Hand driers are a bit too high and don’t always work.
- Drinking fountain in the top corridor.
- New books in the book corners. Library?
- Books are too far away for children in the portacabins to get. A
lot of reading time is wasted. Children will need to talk to their
class teachers about the best time to get them.
- More toilet rolls in the girls toilets. But some children are
wasting it. The older children need to remind the younger
children about what to do.
We’ll meet again to discuss the ideas that we didn’t get time to
share and email them to Bob.
Next Meeting:
Tuesday 24th November during assembly time.

Please read these out to your classes
2.12.15
- Y6 boys and girls changing for PE is getting better as the rules
are being followed most of the time. We need to remind each
other to be sensible and respectful.
- Football safety. We need to remind each other to be safe, and
ask an adult to watch what’s going on. A 1-minute time out was
suggested with more time if it keeps happening. Playground staff
to monitor this.
- We’ve put signs up in the toilets as a reminder to look after
them, but still they’re not being respected. Children need to be
reminded that the toilets should be used at break times and only
go during lesson time in an emergency! We can also remind each
other about how to look after the toilets.
- Also, there’s a broken lock reported in the girls and boys toilets
in the top corridor. We’ll report this to Mrs Knight.
- The chocolate fountain suggestion keeps coming up. It’s a oneoff treat maybe if we can find someone with a chocolate
fountain.
- We’d like to give the Christmas play donations to the Children’s
Society charity as a thank you for providing us with Christingle
materials.
