Our School Council Updates
Triathlon success! - February 2016
We met up with Shirenewton and Pembroke year 5 and 6 school councillors to discuss the activities that we will plan for
our joint triathlon. We decided to do a circuit, obstacle course and throwing activities. We raised £77.27 at Thornwell
School.
Plates survey - March 2016
We created pupil surveys to find out if pupils would like plates and dishes instead of trays at lunchtime.
The results showed that 144 pupils would like plates and dishes and 29 pupils said no to plates and dishes.
The reasons given for having plates and dishes included:
- It won't feel like being in prison
- we will feel more grown up
- it is cleaner and nicer
- we don't like eating out of a tray
- it is something stronger than trays
- I will feel at home
- We are too old to have trays
-plates and dishes look better
- it shows that we are trusted
- we won't spill our drinks into our food
