School Council Fund raising

The school council would like to arrange three non-uniform days this academic year, 2009/10.

The funds raised from these non-uniform days would be used to support charities selected by the school community and internal school based projects.

The three non-uniform days and charities selected by the school council / community are:

 

1. CHILDREN IN NEED                             Friday, 20th November 2009
2. RNLI (Llantwit Major / St Donats)       Friday, 19th March 2009
3. CANCER RESEARCH UK                       Friday, 2nd July 2010

 

It was agreed by a majority vote that 50% of the money raised from the non-uniform days is to be used internally to improve student projects and areas in the school and that 50% is donated to the charities listed above.

Internal areas suggested by the school council are:

1. Creating an external seating / picnic area where X11 (Mrs Davies Music Room) used to be for student use at break and lunch times
2. Improve facilities in the sixth form common room
3. Raise funds for future drama productions

 

Eco-Schools Silver Award

The Geo Club have worked with the School Council to gain the Eco-Schools Silver Award for Llantwit Major School.

This shows a real commitment by students and all members of the school community to make our school a place that values our environment and the principles of recycling. Look out for more new initiatives starting soon.
