Council to read a story each day - Xanthe and Reyana are making the timetable and poster outlining the weeks events. Catchy Title "Hooked into Reading"?

Relatives Day - a relative comes in and shares their favourite book.
We will need banners / posters - Reyana / Xanthe.

Hitachi Heatpump - "Another Hitachi Day" Competition
School could win up to $10 000!
Brief is to film an 'outdoor activity inside" e.g.s on the sheet were: indoor fishing competition...Council decided to do a Beach Volley Ball skit
Two players each team, ref, surfer, someone watching on a deck chair.
Voting starts May 7th -so we are going to film this Sunday. Bring along the gear you need. Xanthe is going to bring the net and ball, Katelyn bringing deck chairs, Lynley bringing surf board. Mrs MB sparly material for waves.
Music? Good Vibrations - Beach Boys - change wording to advertise Hitachi?
Once filmed - goes up on You Tube and public can vote.

Mrs MB asked about follow up actions from last meeting...
Declan and Mya have sorted the jar / label for the Pie competition for the council (Healthy Pies!)
Lynley has not finished her survey on subway
Everyone had forgotten to bring their design for the Colgate Carton display - this is a design to let people know where to put their cartons...and also can go into the Colgate competition for most creative display to win the school a prize - sports gear. These must be brought along next week.

Idea from Mrs MB - perhaps we could ask every child to bring 10 colgate cartons each over the next 6 weeks - have a competition of who brings the most here at school to try and boost our numbers??

Meeting finished 1:15pm
