It means you have to remember to go to the meetings with the head girl/boy and the headmaster. But apparently they are at a time which is silly. 1.30pm, which she asks "is that before lunch?" No, its after. But "2pm is better, is that before lunch?" No, that's after 1.30. Anyway she missed last time but made it this week.
Topics of discussion this week included the seriousness of the level of noise in the dining room but most importantly apparently that a boy has been calling another boy Carrot-top head.
Ok it isn't funny for the boy but when it comes out of my daughters mouth in the way she speaks, I found it very chuckling worthy.
Her final comments were - I am going to tell Mr D (the head) that I order him as deputy head girl to have our meetings at two o'clock.. She was joking of course and Ok you have to be there to appreciate it but I find it very endearing that because she cannot tell the time, everything has to be at an o'clock time and to her own timetable.
The best thing was, she said she didn't need to be reminded to go to the meeting today. Her teacher came to find her to remind her and she had already gone. She was really proud of herself for remembering because she misses so many things because she normally doesn't. I was very proud of her too!
(and yes she is home tonight as we have a hospital appointment tomorrow - swallow study - and its nice to have her home mid week)

Good Luck with the swallow study.
I remember meetings with the headteacher when I was deputy head girl too. We had to be outside her office to ring her doorbell at 0815 and then wait for up to 45 minutes until a green light went on, where upon we could knock and enter. It didn't matter that we were never allowed in before 8:30, we had to ring at 8:15. I think I spent over a week waiting for her in total! This sounds even more preposterous now I've written it down.
I do hope B gets her way with the timing. ( I still can't tell the time accurately, unless it's digital!)
