  • Tranent Cluster Area Early Years Profile
    Tranent Cluster Area Early Years Profile Introduction Over the last two years a group of service and community champions for Support from the Start have developed a wide range of initiatives and programmes aimed at improving health and social equality through a focus on children’s early years – pre birth to 8 years of age. This approach has evaluated positively (Healthy Happy Bairns) and a second phase for Support from the Start has been agreed by East Lothian community planning partners. A key part of the phase two approach is the development of local ‘champions’ or ‘link up’ groups in each of the school clusters. A fuller description of the proposed champions groups can be found here but in short they will bring together key people from the community and local services to focus on action to improve chances for children pre birth to 8. Each group will have a link to the Support from the Start planning board and a small development http://www.visiteastlothian.org/gallery.asp fund has been agreed for the group’s use. Tranent Cluster Area Overview Tranent is situated towards the west of East Lothian lying between Haddington and Musselburgh on the south side of the main A1 road. The history of Tranent is based around local farming and coal-mining as the town coat of arms reflects but in this 21st century its residents work in many different professions throughout East Lothian and in the capital Edinburgh. The Cluster area includes the settlements of Tranent, Ormiston, Elphinstone, Macmerry, Saltoun and Pencaitland and has one secondary school and eight primary schools, most with http://www.eastlothianmuseu ms.org/exhibitions/tranent/ob attached nursery classes.

  • 7. Some Lesser Lothian Streams This Is A
    7. Some Lesser Lothian Streams This is a ‘wash-up’ section, in which I look briefly at a number of small streams, mostly called burns, which flow directly to the sea or the Firth of Forth, but which in terms of discharge rate are mainly an order of magnitude smaller than the rivers looked at so far. For each, I give a short account of the course and pick out a few features of interest, presenting photographs as seems appropriate. Starting furthest to the east, the streams dealt with are as follows: 1. Dunglas Burn 2. Thornton Burn 3. Spott Burn 4. Biel Water 5. East Peffer Burn 6. West Peffer Burn 7. Niddrie Burn 8. Braid Burn 9. Midhope Burn As shall become clear, some of these streams change their names more than once along their lengths and most are formed at the junction of other named streams, but hopefully any confusion will be resolved in the accounts which follow. 7.1 The Dunglas Burn The stream begins life as the Oldhamstocks Burn which collects water from a number of springs on Monynut Edge, the eastern flank of the Lammermuir Hills. No one of these feeders dominates, so the source is taken as where the name Oldhamstocks Burn appears, at grid point NT 713 699, close to the 200m contour. After flowing c3km east, the name changes to the Dunglas Burn which flows slightly north-east in a deep, steep- sided valley for just over 7km to reach the sea. For the downstream part of its course the burn is the boundary between the Lothians and the Scottish Borders, but upstream it flows in the former region.

  • Main Issues Report Will “Meet Housing Requirements in Appropriate Marketable Locations”
    Appendix 1 MIR Consultation Question Summaries MIR Consultation Question Summaries 51 Issue: MIR question: Aims & Objectives Question 1 Total number of responses on issue 201 Support aims and objectives 129 Do not support aims and objectives 64 Scottish Government, key agencies, and adjoining authorities Scottish Government believes the LDP should make explicit reference to enhancement of Green networks and reference to green networks could be added in to the Objective. “To ensure that the area’s significant international, national and local cultural and natural heritage assets including green networks are protected and conserved, and where appropriate enhanced, including biodiversity, flora and fauna as well as soil, water and air quality.” Welcome that one of the proposed Objectives/ Outcomes is to recognise the important role that town centres and other mixed use areas have in providing services locally. Scottish Water: supports the aims and objectives of the LDP and is committed to ensuring that adequate infrastructure is available to enable development in line with its responsibilities. Internal Consultees: ELC Countryside: Radical industrial developments are proposed which will affect quality of life dramatically. The two ideas for accommodating new house building will not serve the needs of the whole county well. Small housing developments throughout the county particularly providing affordable housing in areas such as Gullane and North Berwick need to go hand in hand with dramatic improvement on the whole counties' accessibility and in particular bus services. Ensure that the area’s significant international, national and local cultural and natural heritage assets are protected and conserved, and where appropriate enhanced, including biodiversity, flora and fauna as well as soil, water and air quality - importance of green networks as dictated by NPF3.

  • Innerwick Early Years Setting, Innerwick Primary, East Lothian
    Innovation Fund Project Developing Child’s Voice Practice Innerwick Early Years Setting, Innerwick Primary, East Lothian Sarah Laing, Senior Early Years Practitioner Rationale for Change The Map-do-review Method has been used since 2014 to enable children to have a meaningful voice in decision making. A change in staffing structure, an increase in hours and rapid change over 2018-2019 has impacted on the frequency of practitioner’s engagement in the method, resulting in its usage becoming inconsistent. Therefore, it is necessary to develop strategies for its application and consider ways of improving practitioner’s confidence so that a consistent approach can be re-established and be sustainable.
