Pizza Day 2017

Sydney High Bucket Hats

There has been requests to have a bucket hat introduced to the Sydney High official school uniform. The SRC will investigate this further and confirm if it will be feasible.

SRC Funds

The SRC has built up funds over the two years through fundraising events. Our first priority would be to spend this on a school-wide cashless card system. If this falls through, we will be searching for something else to spend this money on.

This meeting at a glance: Trivia Night, Meeting with Dr Jaggar and 2017 Executive Elections

Trivia Night

Trivia Night is just 2 weeks away and most tables have been filled. There are only 2 SBHS tables yet to be filled so if you want to book one it is vital you do it ASAP. The table limit is very strict and we definitely cannot squeeze extra tables in, so if you miss out you will have to wait for next year.

Meeting with Dr Jaggar

Peter Pan, Roy Yi and Jack Ralph attended a meeting with Dr Jaggar last Thursday. The main topics discussed were Trivia Night, BYOD and Year 12 Jerseys, amongst other things. We were reminded that it is imperative we listen to the students of the school to ensure that any problems or issues can be solved either through the SRC or through the school council. Having said this, anyone with suggestions or complaints should speak to any SRC member or come to a meeting any Monday lunch in room 304.

2017 Executive Elections

The year 10 SRC members gave speeches for executive elections which will be taking place this week. The polls close on Friday and the results will be officially announced next Monday. The SRC secretary has already been selected and the result to this will also be officially announced next Monday.

This meeting at a glance: Trivia Night, Year 12 Jerseys and Microwaves

Trivia Night

Trivia Night is approaching quickly. Out of the 12 tables allocated to Sydney Boys, 6 have been reserved or paid in full. There is high interest in the remaining tables so please return your forms and deposits quickly if you wish to participate.

Year 12 Jerseys

The SRC may not be able to deliver the year 12 jerseys as early as initially hoped, however they should still be available during Autumn 2017.

Microwaves

It has been suggested that the SRC purchase a bank of microwaves for the students to use. While this sounds like a good idea and would be useful for students, it may be difficult to do due to safety issues and finding a space to put them. Also, currently the only students with access to a microwave are the prefects and this scheme may be seen as taking away one of their privileges.
