Student Council

This term had started with an opportunity to meet with Ms Foster regarding issues

highlighted by the Student Council Clinic. It was a great occasion for both parties
to converse. We have stayed consistent by keeping weekly meetings discussing
the present as well as recurring feedback from the student body.
Items highlighted last year were revised to ensure that they have been delivered on
such as medical kits and brand new library books.

In relation to addressing problems, the Student Council has collaborated with the
newly set up Design Club led by Ms. Kelly regarding the improvement of bathroom
facilities. An Art Campaign is in the works, the aim of which is to highlight the
importance of maintaining a clean environment in student toilets. This is in
response to student feedback one of our recent Student Council Clinics.

Refurbished Canteen menus that will be displayed adjacent to Gertie's
kitchen have been designed and printed, they are now more legible and easily
accessible no matter where you are positioned during the lunchtime period.

A second clinic was held on February 29th where students had an opportunity to
approach a member of the Student Council and tell us about problems they may be
having. As a result of feedback from this clinic, the Student Council have decided to
work on an online survey that will be delivered via Google Docs in future as a more
efficient and confidential way of seeking students' views on issues that concern
them.
