  • A New Beginning for Swineshead St Mary's Primary School
    www.emmausfederation.co.uk Admission arrangements for Community and Voluntary Controlled Primary Schools for 2018 intake The County Council has delegated to the governing bodies of individual community and controlled schools the decisions about which children to admit. Every community and controlled school must apply the County Council’s oversubscription criteria shown below if they receive more applications than available places. Arrangements for applications for places in the normal year of intake (Reception in Primary and Infant schools and year 3 in Junior schools) will be made in accordance with Lincolnshire County Council's co‐ordinated admission arrangements. Lincolnshire residents can apply online www.lincolnshire.gov.uk/schooladmissions, by telephone or by requesting a paper application. Residents in other areas must apply through their home local authority. Community and Voluntary Controlled Schools will use the Lincolnshire County Council's timetable published online for these applications and the relevant Local Authority will make the offers of places on their behalf as required by the School Admissions Code. In accordance with legislation the allocation of places for children with the following will take place first; Statement of Special Educational Needs (Education Act 1996) or Education, Health and Care Plan (Children and Families Act 2014) where the school is named. We will then allocate remaining places in accordance with this policy. For entry into reception and year 3 in September we will allocate places to parents who make an application before we consider any parent who has not made one. Attending a nursery or a pre-school does not give any priority within the oversubscription criteria for a place in a school.

  • Taumberland House Asperton Road | Wigtoft | Boston | Lincolnshire | PE20 2PS TAUMBERLAND HOUSE
    Taumberland House Asperton Road | Wigtoft | Boston | Lincolnshire | PE20 2PS TAUMBERLAND HOUSE SELLER INSIGHT We have enjoyed glorious views over the garden and through the trees across open fields – it’s very private and peaceful, and there is so much visiting wildlife including woodpeckers and muntjacs. The house itself is flooded with light as a lot of the rooms are dual aspect.” Quality materials have been employed throughout the property with the use of solid oak a particular feature. “The staircase, all the skirtings and architraves, the kitchen units, and the garden room are solid oak, with the internal doors oak veneer. The bespoke kitchen has Corian worktops, an integrated dishwasher, and all electric Britannia range-style cooker. There’s also a built-in Tapworks water softener with a filtered water tap. The main bathroom with the big free-standing bath and separate shower has travertine tiling and the en suite has a shower.” “The integral double garage might make a granny annex (subject to planning) as there is already plumbing in the utility room next door unless, of course, someone wanted to be more adventurous and convert the barns!” “There used to be a cottage on the site but that was raised to the ground and a new house built in its place which was completed in 2008. More recently, the new barn complex replaced some old outbuildings, and the two stables were built for the horses, along with the creation of the paddocks and menage. It’s a versatile design deliberately making life easy – the stables open into a turn-out paddock which then links with the grazing paddocks so the horses can come and go as they please without having to catch them and shut them in at night.” “The manège is 40 x 20 metres and fully drained with a membrane and hardcore topped with silica sand and rubber, so there is no flooding whatsoever however torrential the rain.

  • Holbeach Hurn Ward
    Ward Infopack Holbeach Hurn Ward Councillor Nick Worth Produced by: Corporate Improvement & Performance Team May 2015 About our Community Corporate Priority - 'To develop safer, stronger, healthier and more independent communities while protecting the most vulnerable' This section presents information about the community in Holbeach Hurn Ward. It covers the demographic information about the local population, and local health and socio-economic factors. Residents Holbeach Hurn has a resident population of 2,270 which represents 2.57% of the total S Holland resident population of 88,270. Holbeach Hurn's resident population is 50.7% female and 49.3% male. The mean age of the Holbeach Hurn Ward population is 42 years compared to a mean age of 43 years for residents in the whole of South Holland. The predominant age band in Holbeach Hurn Ward is Age 45 to 59 which represents 23.50% of the population. The general overview in South Holland is that a significant part of the population is either approaching or in retirement age, increasing demand on supporting services and reducing the recruitment pool in the local economy.

  • I Sauh a Tour on a Toft, Tryelyche I-Maket', Part Two: on Place-Names in -Toft in England
    `I sauh a tour on a toft, tryelyche i-maket', part two: on Place-Names in -toft in England Peder Gammeltoft University of Copenhagen The place-name element -toft has received only marginal treatment in the British Isles. Apart from Bengt Holmberg’s thesis and the present writer’s overview of the Scottish toft place-name material,1 this group of place- names has been the focus of very little research, despite the fact that the element may be used to throw new light on the complex linguistic situation in Viking Age and post- Conquest England. The place-name element toft is ultimately of Scandinavian origin, having been transferred into the languages and onomastica of England and Scotland through either Old Danish (ODa) toft, f., or Old Norse (ON) topt, f. I shall not elaborate further on the origin of this place-name element, as this has already been dealt with in my above-mentioned article on the subject. As a place- name element of Scandinavian origin, toft is part of the large body of Viking Age place-names which include such prominent and well-researched Scandinavian place-name elements as bý, þorp and þveit. One complicating factor in the study of the place-name element toft is the early borrowing of toft into English. It occurs as an appellative as early as 1001 in English in the phrase healf þæt land æt suðham innur and uttur on tofte and on crofte (`half the land at Southam, including homestead as well as 1B.
