Hesperus House Council - 2 March 2015

Tuck Shop

·        It’s too expensive.

·        There should be a cap on how much each student can spend

·        Food should be healthier – cereal Bars, sandwiches, dried fruit, smoothies, yoghurts.

(SDCH – Thanks for these suggestions, I have passed them on to the Headmaster and Mr Williams who will be reviewing what the tuck shop sell)

Top Floor Showers

·        The pressure is terrible when more than one shower is being used. The shower room also needs to be decorated. 

·        The cold water tap in the top floor bathroom is also not working.

(SDCH - Agreed and I’m sorry this has not improved. I have spoken to the maintenance team who will decorate the room as soon as they can. They will also be exploring ways at improving the pressure. Replacing the shower pump is one option.)

Other comments

·        Netflix and Miniclip don’t work on tablets.

(SDCH – I’ve emailed the ICT dept. and asked them to look into this.)

·        Can we have a House pet?

(SDCH – Doesn’t May count as a House pet? She would be very upset! Once again, I am reluctant as who would look after the pet during the holidays?)

Action from the last meeting (13 January 2015)

·        We now have a printer in Gail’s room as ICT felt there was no space in the Gun Room 

·        Will Read asked for Hungry Hippos – he has Slippery Seals (thanks to the Winter family for donating! 

·        Access to the Sports Hall during the evenings – has this improved? If not I suggest Matthew Montgomery and Sam Holloway raise this at School Council next week (Tuesday 10 March)
