Summer term council meeting minutes
21.04.23
The council met after the Easter break and decided to do a 'Litter Pick'. The group was excited to meet and discussed various activities to do in the coming weeks. If you are as excited as we are then check out our pictures in the 'Summer Term Activities' folder.

The Eco Council met again on Tuesday @1pm to discuss their new project-The St Pat’s own Uniform Shop. The councillors came up with the name ‘3R Giveaway’ for the shop. The idea is that parents can swap their child’s uniform instead of paying to buy one. The uniform is available for trade from the school office and parents can contribute as per their will in a ‘honesty box’. This way not only are we protecting our pockets but the environment as well.
Our motto is ‘“Trade Clothes to Save Loads”. Check out our i-movie in the 'Summer Term Activity' folder.
So what are you waiting for? Come join us to help make our school a pillar of Environmental Sustainability!

We collected nearly 3 full bags worth of waste. The Eco Council also are trying to come up with slogans and ideas to tell people not to be a ‘Litter Bug’.

We discussed various trees, shrubs and herbs like apple, pear, blueberry, strawberry etc that can be planted around Forest School.
