We meet regularly as a group, to discuss the views of the children, and after each meeting the class representatives report back to their classes to discuss any issues raised. This means every child in our school has the opportunity to have their say and to be heard through the Student Voice. ### Healthy Me week Some of our Student Voice helped today with a delivery from TESCO Fleetsbridge who very kindly donated a selection of fruit for our 'Healthy Me' week.

It was raised that the equipment has been removed from the KS1 playground as it was unsafe. The children asked whether there was going to any replacements put in place for them all to play on. We talked about the cost, that we have to make sure that the children are safe. That we have to ensure that everyone plays with equipment fairly and look after it. The older children also raised that there was no equipment on the KS2 playground either. This moved to discussing the KS2 Quiet Area. Mr Noyce has spoken to some contractors about tarmacking the path and we talked about needing new tables and chairs and that it would be nice to have some planters with flowers in. We discussed ideas of how we could do some fund-raising to help pat for it. Finally, the children asked when they will be allowed to go up onto the field for playtimes and lunchtimes. Mrs Gould is going to ask Mr France. ### Children - [Class Pages](https://lmpsdorset.org/children/class-pages) - [Kids' Zone](https://lmpsdorset.org/children/kids-zone) - [Houses](https://lmpsdorset.org/children/houses) - [Listening Ear](https://lmpsdorset.org/children/listening-ear) - [Play Leaders](https://lmpsdorset.org/children/play-leaders) - [Student Voice](https://lmpsdorset.org/children/student-voice) - [School Library](https://lmpsdorset.org/children/school-library) - [Children's Questionnaire](https://lmpsdorset.org/children/children-s-questionnaire) ![Lytchett Matravers](https://files.schudio.com/lytchett-matravers/images/logo/logo-white(1).png) ### Lytchett Matravers Lytchett Matravers Primary School and Preschool Wareham Road Lytchett Matravers Poole Dorset BH16 6DY School Contact: Mrs Batten & Mrs Blake School Telephone: 01202 622378 (Option 2) School Email : office@lmpsdorset.co.uk Preschool Contact: Mrs Day Preschool Telephone: 01202 622378 (Option 3) Wraparound Care Telephone: (07769) 264332 Preschool Email: preschooloffice@lmpsdorset.co.uk ### Useful Links - [Contact Us](https://lmpsdorset.org/contact) - [CEOP](https://www.ceop.police.uk/safety-centre/) - [Reporting Absence](https://lmpsdorset.org/parents/reporting-absence) - [Ofsted Report](https://lmpsdorset.org/about-us/ofsted-report) - [Our Governors](https://lmpsdorset.org/about-us/meet-the-governors) ### Translation © Copyright 2025–2026 Lytchett Matravers School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://lmpsdorset.org/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
