Any Other Business
 |
Concern was expressed that student would like to use the Games Hall
at lunchtimes. It was pointed out that hockey occurs on a Friday
lunchtime. The council would like to see the games hall used more,
for 5-a-side for example. This could be done on a rolling basis. Mr
Chapman to ask for a response from Mr Richardson, and this will be
discussed at the next meeting. |

Students are worried that the new school will make if difficult for
students to go down the street and back. They would like a longer
lunch break – could this be looked into by the SMT? |
