Thanks go particularly to all those brave folk who kindly opened their glorious gardens for critical inspection! The event also could not have taken place had it not been for Elisabeth’s wonderful organisation and our thanks go to her, her family and her hardy band of helpers, the Landgrebe family for the loan of the tables and chairs and the efficient tent erectors. Thanks for all the wonderful cakes that were provided and served in the tea tent for all the plants and super plant stall, and to everyone who attended and supported the event. It was a very special afternoon and the sun shone on us all. Church Wardens 3 All Change at The Leighton News This edition of The Leighton News, the last before our Summer break, will also be the last one prepared by the editorial partnership of Jenny Sanders and Allan Smith. Following our appeal in last month’s edition, we have been very lucky to secure the services of a new editor, who will produce his first issue in September. David Holloway, who lives with his wife Pat at Welsh Harp on the Long Mountain road, comes from a background in education and business, and is keen to carry The Leighton News into a new period. We are sure he will develop the same close relationship with our readers, sponsors, advertisers and donors that we have been fortunate to enjoy. David will also take responsibility for coordinating the distribution of the Leighton News through the well established network set up by Gordon and Sylvia Helliwell over the past fifteen years. Copy for the September edition and for all subsequent issues should be sent to David, who can be contacted on: 01938 570675 e-mail: [email protected] The outgoing team of Jenny, Allan, Sylvia and Gordon would like to thank everyone in Leighton for their co-operation and support, and wish David well in his new venture. Your donations are also important to the future of The Leighton News. This month we are very grateful to Doreen Oliver, Bernard Oliver and John Roberts for their kind donations to our funds. Thank you! 4 21st Century Schools Programme Newsletter June 2015 Welshpool Town Primary Schools Review In November 2014, Powys County Council launched a review of primary education in Welshpool area.

It offers a diverse range of scenery: from the lakes and rolling pasturelands around Ellesmere in the north, to the gaunt moorlands of the Clee Hills, with their stark industrial ruins, in the south; the densely wooded scarps of Wenlock Edge; or the straight, sandy lanes of the north-eastern heathlands, with their large arable fields and ‘big skys’.
