COMMITTEES

Student Council

After a busy election campaign our Student Council were elected in September. This is made up of children from Fifth and Sixth Class. The role of the student council is to work with Ms. McGowan and other teachers in the school to share their ideas on how to make the school a better place. They look out for all the children in the school and help them with any problems they may have.

Green School & Garden Committee

Our Green School & Gardening Committee is busy helping to make our school and our planet a more green friendly and pretty place! They have worked so hard that we have been awarded four Green Flags as a result! Our first Green Flag was awarded because we proved that we know how to recycle. We were then awarded our second Green Flag as we learnt how to conserve energy around the school. Our third Green Flag was awarded because we learned the importance of conserving water. We were awarded our fourth green flag which was based on green travel.

As well as obtaining these flags for the school, the role of the committee is also to ensure that we retain our flags. The committee are continually monitoring our bins and reminding students and teachers to dispose of their waste in the correct bins.

The Committee are always very busy weeding, planting and watering to make the school grounds look nice and welcoming! This year we will be planting an array of fruit and vegetables, inspecting insects and their ecosystems.
