Today was our first meeting after the winter break. It was a good meeting, allowing us to update each other on what our mini task groups had achieved.
Firstly and the great news was that we have finally finished our green award preparation and have finally sent in the application. Within the next few weeks, a judge will be coming into the academy and judging whether we have done everything necessary.
Our Assembly group have finalized the dates for when the assemblies are to take place (week commencing the 19th of January) and have begun sorting who will be in which assembly and ideas on how to present what we want to get across.
The Fair trade group have thought of ideas to sell fair trade items in the mall at breaks/lunchtimes. This could vary from school equipment or food and snacks. There was a cafe' which was found that sell fair trade things and we have been in touch to see if they would come into the academy and start off a stall or just let the school and students about fair trade.
Some ideas arose about interviewing Mr Weller, the principal, and other members of staff, to see the opinions of the eco-council and our progression so far within the school. After speaking with Mr Weller, he has agreed to be apart of the interview, speaking on the strong Student Voice which we have created and how we have come up with ideas and have followed them through. Within the next few weeks, a video will be made and posted, so keep watching this space!
Thats all for today. Come back and see our progress next week.
