SRC Minutes Term 2 Week 9 – 25/06/18

Talent Quest auditions will be coming up right after the holidays, so please start getting acts ready over the holidays! A reminder that while an act can be entertaining, it must still be appropriate, and each act can be no longer than 5 minutes.
Designs for the proposed Bucket Hats are now open, so start drawing up designs and send them in to the SRC. The best designs will be picked out by the SRC and put up to a school vote.
The SRC will soon put up a ballot to Juniors regarding the concept of Cyber-Free Monday.
Further ideas raised at the meeting this week include changing the colour of the school hat to a darker colour, and the introduction of systems of electronic payment at the canteen. Both issues will be looked into and brought to the School Council if necessary.

SRC Minutes – Term 2 Week 8 – 18/06/18

 

Unfortunately, the mini-fair initially planned for Year 7 has been cancelled as of now, due to a lack of interest and time constraints. If the opportunity to run this does come again, we will look into organising the event.

Talent Quest will be held in early Term 3, with auditions in the first few weeks. Please start getting your acts ready over the holidays!

The SRC has gotten approval for bucket hats, so we will continue to work with the High Store on designs and price over the coming months.

The concern of having sheltered bus lines has been brought up to the SRC, with further discussion pending in the coming weeks.

SRC Minutes – Term 2 Week 5 (28/05/18)

Junior Dance is this Thursday 31st May (6pm to 9pm) at SGHS. Please see your Junior SRC Members to buy a ticket for $10. We highly recommend Juniors go for a fun, social night.

 

Students are reminded that there is a service on the School Portal/Moodle through which students can anonymously report any kind of discrimination or concerns they have with anything at school, including racism, bullying or anything suspicious regarding other students. The use of this service has been shown to be highly effective for the school, so please use it if required.

 

The SRC-run Ballot on the Student Portal regarding bucket hats is now up. Remember to vote for this if you wish to have bucket hats.

The GPS Swimming Carnival is being held this Friday 23rd March at Sydney Olympic Park Aquatic Centre (SOPAC) at 6.30pm to 9pm. We encourage all students to attend and support the boys swimming. Award Scheme Points apply.

The SRC discussed the following matters at the recent School Council Meeting:
a) The school will contact transport authorities regarding the issue of bus lines in the morning from Central.
b) The Council has said that the Year 11 Sports Uniforms on Wednesday requires more responses from the students. Another ballot will come shortly.

The SRC will begin to be involved in Canteen Meetings to liaise with the Canteen over menu suggestions etc.

The SRC plans to hold a Ramen Day/Udon Day sometime in the future. More information will come at a later date.

A recent issue of the new sports shorts pockets being too small, meaning items fall out. The SRC will ask the High Store about this.

SRC Minutes – Term 1 Week 5 – 05/03/2018

A ballot has been proposed by the SRC regarding the possibility of sport uniforms on Wednesday for Year 11s. This is remains subject to approval.
Unfortunately, two suggestions from the student body – beanbags in Senior Library and 6 chicken fingers instead of 4 in the Canteen – were not approved by the Senior Library (due to space issues) or the Canteen.
In addition, the issue of school buses in the morning at Central causing overcrowding and many students to be late to school will be brought up at the School Council Meeting this month.

SRC Minutes – Term 1 Week 4 – 19/02/2018
