Process feedback on spending funds

Thank you to those who have provided feedback on how we should spend our £3000 ASAP https://forms.gle/i1WuRQnE6X1W6pUi6.  I will close this form to responses on Monday 7th Oct at 9pm. 

Before I send the list of spend ideas out for all children/families/staff to vote on (there are 13 options so far), I am asking for feedback on how our first Broughton Decides process should be fine tuned for fairness.

Broughton Decides: 

Round 1 - send list to all families/staff for voting until the 20th October via email link and school website.  Results shared on the school website.

Round 2 - Pupil Council will help children vote during school, 23rd-24th October on the top 5 options from Round 1.  Results shared on the school website.

Round 3 - everyone votes on the top 3 of the options until the 29th October via email link and school website. 

Fund choice announced at the next Parent Council meeting on the 30th October.

Funds arranged to be spent by end of November.

Attached for reference when considering what we spend the funds on are the draft proposals from January of this year on our: 

• spending criteria; 
• Financial Procedures (point 10 for spending requests); 
• fund allocation graph
• Broughton Decides 
• These all need to be updated to our new Friends At Broughton name and any feedback on them is welcome and can be discussed/amended in our Parent Council meetings.

Free Creche at PC meetings

• Our Parent Council meetings will now come with a free creche service so that you don't have to worry about childcare to come along and get your voice heard on school related issues.  
• This service is being provided by staff from Broughton After School Club and paid for by the Parent Council.
• Lucy P will do Wednesday 30th October; 
• Zaira L will do Wednesday 29th January; 
• Lulu will do Wednesday 25th March; 
• Maria will do Wednesday 27th May.
• If anyone has old games/activities that they would like to donate to our new creche (that we can also use at our FAB events) please bring them into school after the mid term holidays.

Halloween Swap Shop

• Friday 25th October, 11:30am-1pm we will host a swap shop of Halloween costumes under the After School Club.  
• Bring along outfits that no longer fit / are no longer liked and see if you can find anything to take away from the donations brought along.  
• Left over donations will be given to a charity shop for other families to benefit from.

Halloween Disco tickets

• Will only be sold in person from the 23rd October, every morning at the picnic tables under the After School Club, until they sell out. 
• If you cannot make the sale in the mornings please email me and I will forward to our Disco coordinators, Lizzie & Rebecca, who will decide if you can order and pay another way.
• Every child must be accompanied by an adult to the discos on the 1st November - you can bring up to 4 children per adult.
• 50p for a child ticket (including babies and toddlers) and £2 for an adult ticket.
• Volunteers still needed for set up and the 3 discos or they will not be able to go ahead due to insurance/safety reasons.
