  1. Burning Leaves 
  • The Council decided to enquire about the policy of disposal of leaves on the school site - whether it could be done by composting rather than burning.

  1. Student Parking

  • The Council suggested that there be long-term representation from the Council to the Development Director to ensure some provision of space for student parking on the redeveloped school site.

 

  • Reservations, however, were raised about encouraging students to drive to school, which would contribute to congestion (a reason many students want to drive to school) and be polluting.                                                                           
  • Action: Matt Maltby

  1. Black and White Letter
  • The Council awaits the first version of a letter to Black and White responding to the article 'Student Council; Impotent and Ineffectual?                                .

  • The Council responded with ecstatic applause and tears of joy to news that, in part due to Council pressure, doors have now been installed on showers.
