  • Barley Close Blackhorse Emersons Green Mangotsfield Thursday 25Th
    Emersons Green Primary School September 2014 Dear Parents, Thank you for your interest in sending your child to one of the schools in the Emerson Green/ Mangotsfield area. We understand that choosing the right school for your child is very important and you will need time and information before you are able to make your decision. The above four schools work very closely together and in order to help, we have allocated times for you to visit each school if you wish. (See below). The meetings will give you an opportunity to view the school(s) and meet the Headteacher(s) and ask any questions you may have. These meetings are not really suitable for children. Once you have made a decision and a place has been offered there will be opportunities for parents and children to visit the school and become more familiar with the staff and the setting. Sometimes parents have confidential issues they would like to discuss with the Headteacher(s). Usually it is possible to do this briefly at the end of the meetings. However you may want to ring the school prior to the meeting to check whether you need to make an alternative appointment if you would like to talk in confidence. Times of meetings Barley Close Blackhorse Emersons Mangotsfield Green Thursday 25th September 1.30pm Wednesday 8th October 9:30am Thursday 16th October 10.30 am Friday 7th November 9.30am Monday 17th November 2.00pm Wednesday 19th November 6.15 pm Tuesday 25th November 9:30am Wednesday 26th November 6.30pm Thursday 27th November 2.00 pm Wednesday 6th January 6.00pm Thursday 8th January 7.00pm 9.30am All schools in South Gloucestershire are listed in a booklet “Admission to Primary Schools in South Gloucestershire – A Guide for Parents/ Carers”.

  • Free Swimming Pilot for Pregnant Women Launched
    PRESS RELEASE January 2020 Free swimming pilot for pregnant women launched From 1 February, pregnant women living in South Gloucestershire will be able access free swimming as part of a year‐long pilot scheme from the region’s Active Lifestyle Centres. The scheme is being run as a joint partnership between Circadian Trust, the not‐for‐profit organisation operating the Active Lifestyle Centres, and South Gloucestershire Council. The pilot will run for a year, which will be monitored and reviewed, and the findings used to inform any future decision. Swimming is a highly beneficial way to stay active during pregnancy and can be performed safely in all three trimesters. Widely recognised as a low‐impact method of aerobic exercise, swimming provides a more comfortable environment for expectant mothers to maintain their physical health – as the water both keeps them cool and supports the additional weight. In addition, researchers are now discovering that regular aerobic exercise during pregnancy has the potential to improve the mental and physical health of children well into adulthood. To be eligible for the scheme, women will need to present their Maternity Exemption Certificate, supplied by their doctor or midwife, and will also need to show proof of address before their first session. Mark Crutchley, Chief Executive at Circadian Trust, said: “As an organisation with health and wellbeing at its core, we’re committed to making exercise accessible to all. Therefore, it’s an absolute pleasure to be helping women to swim throughout their pregnancies for free. “There are a vast number of benefits to exercising during pregnancy, from maintaining a healthy weight to reducing health‐related complications for the mother and baby – and these benefits can have long‐term effect on a child’s development beyond birth.

  • South Gloucestershire Council Conservative Group
    COUNCIL SIZE SUBMISSION South Gloucestershire South Gloucestershire Council Conservative Group. February 2017 Overview of South Gloucestershire 1. South Gloucestershire is an affluent unitary authority on the North and East fringe of Bristol. South Gloucestershire Council (SGC) was formed in 1996 following the dissolution of Avon County Council and the merger of Northavon District and Kingswood Borough Councils. 2. South Gloucestershire has around 274,700 residents, 62% of which live in the immediate urban fringes of Bristol in areas including Kingswood, Filton, Staple Hill, Downend, Warmley and Bradley Stoke. 18% live in the market towns of Thornbury, Yate, and Chipping Sodbury. The remaining 20% live in rural Gloucestershire villages such as Marshfield, Pucklechurch, Hawkesbury Upton, Oldbury‐ on‐Severn, Alveston, and Charfield. 3. South Gloucestershire has lower than average unemployment (3.3% against an England average of 4.8% as of 2016), earns above average wages (average weekly full time wage of £574.20 against England average of £544.70), and has above average house prices (£235,000 against England average of £218,000)1. Deprivation 4. Despite high employment and economic outputs, there are pockets of deprivation in South Gloucestershire. Some communities suffer from low income, unemployment, social isolation, poor housing, low educational achievement, degraded environment, access to health services, or higher levels of crime than other neighbourhoods. These forms of deprivation are often linked and the relationship between them is so strong that we have identified 5 Priority Neighbourhoods which are categorised by the national Indices of Deprivation as amongst the 20% most deprived neighbourhoods in England and Wales. These are Cadbury Heath, Kingswood, Patchway, Staple Hill, and west and south Yate/Dodington.

  • Covid Weekly Testing Unit Hawkesbury Village Hall
    Twice Weekly Covid-19 Testing Kits Will Be Available Through Mobile Facility in Communities Across South Gloucestershire We are introducing a mobile option that will take rapid (lateral flow) asymptomatic testing kits to communities across South Gloucestershire, as part of our support for all residents over the age of 16 without symptoms, who are now being encouraged to take twice weekly tests. A specially equipped vehicle will visit up to 14 locations across the district each week, giving people the option of collecting testing kits to complete at home, as well as the opportunity to take a test with guidance from trained staff if you are unfamiliar with the process. This programme will begin on Saturday 15 May, with visits to Kingswood and Thornbury High Streets. Testing is a central pillar, alongside the continued roll-out of the vaccine, and effective local contact tracing including supporting those who need to self-isolate, that will mean we can live safely with Covid-19 over the coming months. Together these steps, combined with individuals following the guidance on social distancing, hand hygiene, face coverings and fresh air, will help us along the road map out of restrictions and enable us to live safely with the coronavirus into the future. The Government is encouraging all residents over the age of 16, who do not have Covid-19 symptoms, to make regular, twice weekly testing, using rapid home test kits, part of their routine as we enjoy the increased opportunities to get out and mix safely with more people. The mobile offer will visit sites across the district regularly, including rural areas such as Hawkesbury, Marshfield, Severn Beach and Pucklechurch, as well as communities in Thornbury, Charfield, Cadbury Heath, Emersons Green and Patchway.

This should also include managing Local Railway stations including Bristol Temple Meads, Bath Spa Bristol Parkway and Weston super Mare.

We understand that focus is on Mon – Fri 0700 – 1900 but there are essential journeys outside of these times too. Work needs to be carried out in Kingswood Town Centre , Staple hill Downend Warmley, Cadbury heath .Longwell Green , Emerson’s Green, Filton, Patchway, Hanham, Yate ,Thornbury, Chipping Sodbury There needs to be clear management plans for the Bus stations at: Yate, UWE, Cribbs Causeway, Southmead Hospital bus station, BRISTOL bus and coach station, Broadmead city centre, the Harbourside, Clifton Down Station, Old Market, Lawrence Hill Station, Westbury on Trym, Hartcliffe, Knowle and Brislington.
