Hi this is Abigail the Head Girl, along with Ruby and Sonnie the deputies. This is the second week of the school council performing our duties. This week we have been writing paragraphs that describe us,   to be put on display, on the wall in the hall. These will be placed alongside our photos. We have also been having meetings. In the meetings, we decided on the charity we would like to donate to. We all had a vote on the one charity we would like to raise money for. The most popular ones were Dementia Society, Cancer Research UK and Save the Children. If you have an idea on a charity, you would like us to consider, please make sure to contact the school.

Hi, this is Abigail the Head Girl of Hunslet Carr along with Sonnie the Deputy Head Boy.
We are here today to tell you what we have being doing since the beginning of the school year. Last week we went around the school to find out about our    brand new school counselors and we were very pleased with the selection they have chosen this year. They all seem happy and eager to go! The first job assigned to us was from a person at Leeds Beckett University. She was hoping we would encourage our parents complete an online assessment about how healthy our community is.

We had a rather unusual topic to discuss in our School Council Meeting today - dog poo. Yes you heard it right! The SC are going to make posters and  dispensers to put outside school, to encourage people to pick up and if they do not have a bag, they can take a free one on us.

What a brilliant morning we have had! Today, we gathered in the school entrance ready and excited   about   our visit to Woodhouse Hill Community Centre.  We had been asked by Rachel Benn, from the   South Leeds Library services, to come along and join their monthly meeting with the Hunslet Memory   Group. This lovely   group of people meet and share memories of their time in Hunslet, whilst enjoying a   cup of tea and   biscuits. This worthwhile experience is one of the many events organised in conjunction   with the South Leeds Live at Home Scheme. HCPS School Council was invited  to share current   memories, and to find out how things have changed since they were at our school. As the pictures   show, we had a great time. We   listened carefully and sat respectfully; we were a credit to the school.
 After   sharing lots of   interesting   stories, we had a quick drink of juice, ate a tasty biscuit and said our   goodbyes. We are looking   forward to   seeing them again in the future.

School Council News
Hello everyone,
We went to the Woodhill Grange Care home to meet the residents and discuss what their childhoods   were like and listen to their interesting stories about school life and different points in history. We had an   opportunity to tell them what our school day looks like too. We really enjoyed meeting them and some   of their stories made us laugh!
We are looking forward to dressing up for World Book day and can’t wait to see everyone’s costumes.
Yours sincerely,
Leah-Megan and Haruna
 
School Council News:
So far we are having a great start to 2019 and we have a lot to look forward to. In school we   have been working on how to link up our House Point System with the Traffic Light programme   we have on our computer screens in the classroom. We want to work with the company who   makes the computer programme to try and get them to be able to change it so it counts the   House Points too.
Towards the end of the month we will be visiting the Hunslet Carr Community Centre to meet a   group of people who are suffering from memory loss. We are really excited about meeting the   people and talking about what life would have been like for them when they were children.   We hope you’ve had a good start to the year.
Thank you for reading,

 Today, we had our first school council meeting of the year. Everyone turned up ready and   excited about the challenges ahead. As it was Ms Williams's first council meeting we   introduced ourselves and shared all of the great things we did before Christmas. This included   Takeover Day, interviewing prospective staff and collecting books for our library. This term,   we will help Mr Lumb revitalize our school Houses and find a way to collect tokens, as well as   Trackit points. We will also be looking at playground equipment, so watch this space...

Welcome to another newsletter with you Head Boy, Haruna and your Head Girl, Leah-Megan. On
 Takeover Day we really enjoyed being Mr Lumb and taking the assemblies and helping in the   dinner hall. All   of the   children who had jobs really enjoyed dressing up as that person and being in   charge for the day. During our Anti-Bullying week all of the boys and girls learnt how to be good   friends, how to stop bullying and how to help someone if they are getting bullied. We really enjoyed talking to the parents on open morning when we showed you what we have been learning in class.   Since Christmas is just around the corner, we would like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and   a Happy   New Year! We hope you have a lovely holiday and make sure you all stay safe.

 We have had a busy half-term and those involved all enjoyed their first interview. We especially liked   talking to Mr Lumb about our morning with the candidates.
During a council meeting we came up with three names for the 'house'. We will let you know these as   soon as we can! The names will be used on Takeover Day when we have a whole school vote on which   name we prefer.   Takeover Day is November 30th and we are really looking forward to taking over the school!

Tuesday 16th October
Today we took up Mr Lumbs challenge of naming the 'house' in the school grounds after it's   restructure. We took a tour of the 'house' and found out that a 'house' in an incorrect name. There   are   no bedrooms or front rooms! Upstairs there are offices where the inclusion team work and   downstairs there is a big meeting room and a Nurture room.
