Over the last 13 years and more, all editions of this magazine owe themselves in great part to Rick and Helen Dixon. Many readers will be aware that Rick has been the well-oiled machine that has received, scanned, typed, written and re-written contributions and advertisements submitted before proofing, checking and printing approximately 1000 copies of Purton Magazine each month. Probably all advertisers will have had numerous contacts with Helen over the same period as she has helped to keep this magazine financially viable, even with the very reasonable cover price of 50p. Without our advertising income, the price would be approaching £2.00 per copy. Readers might also not be aware that, to prevent advertisements swamping our general content, the committee have restricted the amount of advertising to an average of 35% of the total content. Yet, even with such restrictions there is usually a small queue of advertisers waiting and wanting to advertise in Purton Magazine - all of whom have been effectively managed by Helen. The fact that so many companies and organisations want to advertise in these pages is due to the quality of the magazine and our attractive rate card but especially its varied and informative content. Without so many valuable contributions from our readers, we would not be able to sell so many copies each month and thereby would be significantly less attractive to advertisers. For those who don't yet know, Rick and Helen are moving - all the way to Cricklade - but their many contributions will certainly not be lost to the various village organisations in general and to Purton Magazine in particular. However, true to the spirit of the magazine, we have been very fortunate to find two most suitable replacements. Heather Ponting-Bather is taking over In Touch Services from Rick and will be preparing and producing future issues of this magazine as part of her new business portfolio. On page 25 Heather introduces herself to readers with several interesting details about her background in the design and print business. We are also very pleased to announce that Liz Stevenson has kindly agreed to look after the advertising for the magazine. It is a testament to Rick and Helen's thoughtfulness that each have volunteered to support Heather and Liz in the next few months to effect seamless handovers. 196 981 1000mph years was the extent of Pensioners in Purton set the Is the target for the the Russian Empire that Brighter Futures donation latest British attempt on ended in March 1917 - see page 8 and the front the Land Speed Record - see page 27 cover - see page 33 Page 3 CONTENTS 10 Years Ago Male Choirs join forces A Book I will always Remember Methodist Church After 8 Obituary contacts Age Concern Open Gardens 2017 Bradon Forest School Outdoor Learning Bowls Club PADS Pantomime Carer Support Wiltshire Parish Council News Carnival 2017 Patient Participation Group Church Floodlighting Prayer for Purton Cricket Club Probus Club Cricklade Country Market Purton Contacts Cricklade Band Purton Placard Diary Pages Purton Postbag (letters) Garage Sale Purton Profferings Gardeners’ Guild Rainbows, Brownies, Guides & Rangers Great War Project Re-roofing St Mary’s Guide Dogs St Mary’s Primary School Health & Wellbeing Champion Swindon Choral Society Historical Society Tennis Club In Touch Services - changes Trustee News Jean Flynn Village Diary Knit-a-Square We Record Lent Lunches Wessex Concert for St Mary’s Lydiards Link Scheme Women’s Institute (Purton Evening WI) Mad March Hare Your Magazine Delivered Free! © 2004 - 2017 Magazine Committee Avril Ainscough, Barbara Compton, John Creasey, Helen Dixon, Rick Dixon, Sheila Fowler, Sandra Horsnall, Francis Sheppard Typeset by: In Touch Services Advertising enquiries and copy for contributions by 10th of each month, please to: Purton Magazine, c/o In Touch Design & Print, 2 College Road, Purton SN5 4AR tel 01793 772954 email: [email protected] Distribution & Delivery enquiries only: Sandra Horsnall 01793 770157, or [email protected] Other enquiries and comments for the committee to: The Secretary, 45 Ringsbury Close, Purton SN5 4DF Also on line at www.purtonmagazine.co.uk Page 4 Purton Parish Council News Community Speed Watch (CSW) is a locally driven initiative where active members of the community join together with the support of the Police to monitor speeds of vehicles using speed detection devices. Vehicles exceeding the speed limit are referred to the Police with the aim of educating drivers to reduce their speeds. Speeding continues to be a concern for many communities. Volunteers receive appropriate training and are supported by the Neighbourhood Policing Team (NPT) staff.

  • Addendum to School Places Strategy 2017-2022 – Explanation of the Differences Between Wiltshire Community Areas and Wiltshire School Planning Areas
    Addendum to School Places Strategy 2017-2022 – Explanation of the differences between Wiltshire Community Areas and Wiltshire School Planning Areas This document should be read in conjunction with the School Places Strategy 2017 – 2022 and provides an explanation of the differences between the Wiltshire Community Areas served by the Area Boards and the School Planning Areas. The Strategy is primarily a school place planning tool which, by necessity, is written from the perspective of the School Planning Areas. A School Planning Area (SPA) is defined as the area(s) served by a Secondary School and therefore includes all primary schools in the towns and surrounding villages which feed into that secondary school. As these areas can differ from the community areas, this addendum is a reference tool to aid interested parties from the Community Area/Area Board to define which SPA includes the schools covered by their Community Area. It is therefore written from the Community Area standpoint. Amesbury The Amesbury Community Area and Area Board covers Amesbury town and surrounding parishes of Tilshead, Orcheston, Shrewton, Figheldean, Netheravon, Enford, Durrington (including Larkhill), Milston, Bulford, Cholderton, Wilsford & Lake, The Woodfords and Great Durnford. It encompasses the secondary schools The Stonehenge School in Amesbury and Avon Valley College in Durrington and includes primary schools which feed into secondary provision in the Community Areas of Durrington, Lavington and Salisbury. However, the School Planning Area (SPA) is based on the area(s) served by the Secondary Schools and covers schools in the towns and surrounding villages which feed into either The Stonehenge School in Amesbury or Avon Valley College in Durrington.

  • Newsletter Issue 4
    Dear Parents PARENTS’ NEWSLETTER – ISSUE 4 NOVEMBER 2009 INTRODUCTION As most of you will be aware, one of our school buses, the B8 that serves Sparcells and Peatmoor, was involved in an accident with a tractor on Monday 16 November 2009. Fortunately the injuries were not as serious as they could have been. Three Year 8 girls were taken to hospital, two were discharged that evening returning to school the next day. The third Year 8 girl had a dislocated shoulder and needed surgery to remove glass from her hand. Difficult situations such as this can bring out the best in a community. I would like to thank all staff, the emergency services, parents and students for their support, kindness and consideration during a very difficult 48 hours for the B8 students, their families and the Bradon Forest community. (The letter to parents/press release that we produced has been put on the school website www.bradonforest.wilts.sch.uk under the newsletter section as Parents’ Newsletter Issue 3A.) BRADON FOREST STUDENT, PARENT AND STAFF SURVEYS As a school we regularly run a number of surveys and questionnaires each year on a variety of specific issues. However, it is five years since we ran a whole school survey for parents, students and staff. Earlier this week, questionnaires were distributed to all students, parents and staff. Your son/daughter would have brought home an envelope containing the parental questionnaire with a white return envelope. The student questionnaires contain a brown return envelope. When you have completed your parental questionnaire, please put the form in the white envelope, seal it, and your child should hand these in to his/her tutor.

  • Headteacher Bradon Forest School L25 to L31 (£76,141 to £88,187)
    Headteacher Bradon Forest School L25 to L31 (£76,141 to £88,187) The Athelstan Trust wishes to appoint an excellent teacher and school leader to the post of Headteacher at Bradon Forest School from September 2021. The Athelstan Trust is a Multi-Academy Trust formed in 2015 consisting of four (soon to be five) secondary schools (Malmesbury School, Bradon Forest School, Sir William Romney’s School and The Dean Academy) in Wiltshire and Gloucestershire. Bradon Forest is a successful and popular 11-16 school with approximately 1,000 students in the rural village of Purton, surrounded by stunning Wiltshire countryside with easy access to the M4. There is shared sixth form provision with Malmesbury School. Bradon Forest School was inspected in 2016 and judged Good in all areas. All the Trust’s schools share a deep commitment to delivering an excellent comprehensive education to all our students. At Bradon Forest, we continue to update and develop our attractive site following the construction of our new state of the art sports hall in 2016, adding a new food and textiles block in 2018. Our mix of modern and traditional learning environments gives our school a unique, individual feel that is welcomed by students and parents alike. We provide a friendly, caring, creative and purposeful environment. Students are encouraged to take every opportunity given to them both academically and in extra-curricular activities. We strive to develop confident young adults who show both respect and resilience and who have high aspirations for their futures. This is a very exciting time to be joining the Trust where we all work together to raise standards.

The knock-on effects of any closure create major inconvenience for families and the normal smooth running of our school. A number of important activities both for students and staff have had to be rescheduled (where possible) or cancelled altogether. The Year 8 Parent/Subject Teacher Consultation Evening has been rescheduled for Thursday 15 March 2007. Letters and appointment sheets will be reissued by the Key Stage 3 team in Term 4. The decision to close Bradon Forest last Thursday was taken at 6.40 am after consultation and inspection of the site and access to the school. The road including The Peak is not treated as it is classed as residential and not a priority. Access and conditions, both on the sloped entrance to The Peak, plus in and around the site, were not safe. Delivery lorries and several cars were unable to gain access. Our rural position and very open car park with its narrow access point exacerbated the situation and made the site conditions difficult. When a closure decision is made it needs to be made early enough to ensure radio stations are alerted (BBC Local Radio, GWR and Brunel FM were broadcasting our decision from 7.00 am) and families are aware of the position as soon as possible.
