Miss Proctor’s class, P3/4 are doing a project on the Romans. So at a forum meeting one of the class reps suggested that they have a Roman meal in the classroom.

The p6 reps interviewed them after their meal and they asked them what they liked and what they disliked.

This is what they said:

They liked Turkey drummers,sausages,bread sticks,pickled onions,grapes and biscuits.

They disliked: Lettuce,Tomatos,stuffed eggs,pickled onions and turkey drummers.

If they had another themed lunch they wold like it to be Indian.

At the meeting we were discussing different things we could buy for the playground and we decided we would buy two friendship benches for anyone who has no one to play with at break or lunch time and hopefully someone would see them and come and ask them to play.There will be one in the nursery area and one in the senior area.

We also discussed the menus that we were going to have for our themed lunches.After the meeting the forum reps went back to their classes and asked the class to vote.

The themed menus are:

Febuary =Valentine’s day menu.

March 5th=Europe day menu

March=Chinese menu

April=Mexican menu

June=Birthday menu

July 4th=American menu

We were discussing the idea of making one week a healthy week where the children would not be able to eat unhealthy snacks such as chocolate or fizzy drinks.We would allow low fat crisps and cerial bars.

^{At our Forum meeting on Friday the 15^{th of December Mr Dale visited to tell us about the arrangements so far for Health Week.}^{During our next Health week certain classes will be definitely getting lessons on active things like, tennis, rugby and dancing. To keep the teachers fit, they will be doing some aerobics.}}

Some events are not yet certain but we will meet with Graeme Dale the active sports co-ordinator at our next meeting to talk about this. Here are some of the things that will be discussed with Graeme Dale at the next meeting, rugby and golf.

Before Health Week the senior children of the school shall be participating by doing a sponsored skip around the school while the infant children will be doing a sponsored walk around the school to raise money for activities.

We are also going to try and get the healthy tuck shop up and running, as the pupils last year seemed to enjoy it. We will inform you if any of these arrangements change.

Toilet Improvement Project

forehill — Wed, 20 Dec 2006 11:56:04 +0000

Last year the forum discussed with Mrs Moore the state of the toilets. We discussed the taps in the toilets, because the pipes were leaking. We also talked about the idea of painting bright pictures on the toilet walls, to make the toilets look nice. Some toilet seats were damaged. We ended up deciding that the taps would be replaced. We thought that it would be a good idea to get taps that would switch themselves off to save water and stop people deliberately leaving the taps on. Mrs Moore was able to get money from they Accessibility Fund.

Some money was spent replacing broken toilet seats.

The primary 7 forum reps worked on a bid for money from the Enterprise Fund. We got £200 to buy paint and brushes. All that was left to do was to choose pictures. We had a competition to choose the designs. Here are some photographs of some finished designs.

Our toilets are now bright and have much better working taps. Mrs Moore was delighted with the work of the group and the improvement to the school.
