  • Members present: ConorCalvey, Conor Clarke, Bronagh Rogers, Thomas Gibbons, Finn O Brien, Luke Power, Brendan Staunton, Emma Caulfield, Robyn O’Toole, Lisa O’Toole, Mrs. Rennick
  • Topics discussed: The calling of meetings, water fountain, rack and coat hanger for new building, holes in the wall in the new computer room, ear piercings, soap in toilet
  • We discussed when we should call meetings so that we can have a plan in mind for the future. The next meeting is to take place on Thursday, November 13th, at 1:50. The next meeting after this will take place on Friday, November 21st, at 9:40. Following this, meetings will take place alternately between Thursdays and Fridays every two weeks, and occasionally on a weekly basis if necessary.
  • We are looking into getting some form of a water supply, perhaps a tap or a fountain, so that students will have the chance to fill up their empty water bottles throughout the day.
  • We hope to get a coat hanger and rack for holding bags etc. installed in the new building.
  • The holes in the walls in the new building were also briefly discussed. We’ve concluded that this is unacceptable from fellow students and hope to not see such behavior in the future.
  • Male students have mentioned numerous times that they would like to have the opportunity to pierce their ears and are viewing it as a matter of inequality. We will look further into this matter.
  • The final topic discussed was the lack of soap in the bathrooms which is a very important hygiene matter. We will find out if the soap dispensers can be refilled on a more regular basis.
  • A number of the above issues were discussed with Mrs.Moran on Monday, 10th November.
