Burr House Parliament

Burr House Parliament – Monday 17^th Oct

Here are are some brief notes on last night's meeting 

Year 9 – Harry Ibbotson and Alex Game

House Pet ? Tortoise ? Plan for times when Burr is shut and we’ll think again

Pool cues – yes, new tips. New balls please. Broken pocket – needs fixing again.

Water fountain – no thanks. One in the kitchen is adequate, we agreed. 

Year 10 – Barney Aldridge & Jabrahn Max-Grant

Credit at tuck shop – No, too many boys fail to clear their debts

Catches on showers – for privacy – CAML to investigate

Personal hygiene – details discretely to CAML.

Cushioned chairs for prep time –  excellent idea ! CAML to explore.

Replace/enhance air fresheners in toilets – and every room ? Decision: buy some and have available.

Toilet training ! Reminders on How To Flush. 

PS3 – Fifa 12/COD 3 ? We will  survey demand and buy 2 new controllers & covers -  year 11 agree.

Breakfast pack – survey on numbers and perhaps restart.

Brunch times  - CAML to survey that after half term.

Blazer hangers -  pegs/rails in new furniture for year 10 by Jan should sort this out

Storage space in F5  ?

Later bedtimes – vetoed by CAML. May happen in June.

Year 11: Jaime Quirante and Sam Shields

Cups -  are on the clothes list !

Pin boards -  and year 11 rooms maintenance. CAML explained long term plans. Year 9/10 bathroom being refurbished next week; year 10 rooms by January, and then the top floor will be the next target for a furniture upgrade. 

Top floor kitchen – bread, 4 slot toaster. Agreed on a trial.

Ground floor shower heads – in hand; also ceiling in hand.

Old Burr bathroom -  tell matron. Likewise T2 door.

iPod dock and speakers for diner. Agreed.

Trips and outings – ideas welcome. Start of  Jan term?

Year 12 -  Andy Rewcastle and George Jardine

6^th form common room ? Plan to come forward.

Top floor showers -  still too hot.

Hot choc machine ? Very expensive, so better just to make your own. 

Top kitchen kettle and  Blender - replace if beyond repair. 

A very useful and productive meeting: thanks to all members.
