Earhart’s ‘Crew Breakfast’:

By Mrs K apHarri16th October 2019

This morning in crew we had a ‘family style’ cooked breakfast eating bacon butties (veggie option was Quorn sausage sarnies), a brew and a chat over the morning’s newspaper.

It was a fab experience where crew focused on their character traits and HOWLS by putting them into practice during the session.

Jobs were shared out into small groups some cooking, some making drinks and some choosing the topic for discussion. The crew worked really well together producing a yummy breakfast.

Once the food was ready we all sat down together to eat and discuss the chosen topic, which was the recent racist problems during a high profile sporting event. Everyone in crew contributed to the discussion including Mr Voltaire and Mr Sprakes who seemed to have been hovering around all morning… I wonder why?!

As part of this we need to hold a formal AGM and elect members to the positions of secretary and treasurer.

We invite all parents, carers, guardians and staff who have a vested interest in FXP to attend.

The posts of Secretary and Treasurer are open to all parties with a vested interest in FXP and anyone who wishes to stand for these positions is invited to notify the chair by email (fxp@xpschool.org) no later than 24:00 on October the 23rd 2019.

The format of the AGM will follow a best practice format and an agenda will be published in due course.

The Chair will be available from 17:00 on the day of the meeting, at XP East should anyone have any questions or items they wish to discuss.
