Hastings Student Notices
Hello! Hope you had a fab weekend and Bank Holiday—ready for the week ahead 😊
If you didn’t know already, today is the 3rd & final Student Council Meeting—have your say!
Join the last meeting to share/ gather new feedback, enjoy some pizza as a thank you for all the amazing feedback you’ve given, and hear some exciting updates. Soon, I’ll also be posting on MSL as part of You Said, We Did, so you can see all the positive changes we’ve made together.
Todays meeting:
⏰ 12:30pm – 1:30pm
📌 Meeting Room
I know we’re getting close to the exam period, but there’s still a lot to look forward to—especially with World Mental Health Week coming up next week.
Wellbeing will be running an event at Station Plaza next Wednesday from 10:30am – 1:30pm, and I’m also organising a mental health trip that you’ll soon be able to sign up for.
