It's been a whirlwind of three weeks, experiencing many new things and meeting so many new people, but I wouldn't change it! On Saturday 22nd April upon arrival at the airport, I met the UK half of my team. We all seemed to get on reasonably well and after a thirteen hour flight, arrived in Nairobi. The first task was lifting our suitcases on to the top of the mini busses that were transporting us - which proved very difficult after two days travelling with no sleep! Once we arrived at the guest house, we met the other half of our team and did some team bonding activities to get to know them, then crashed as soon as we could into bed!

  • 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.

The Department of the Environment lists it as a ‘woollen mill’ and ‘early 19th century’.1 These two statements alone demand explanation.

  • Sutton Veny Best Kept Villages
    Sutton Veny Best Kept Villages Villages clean up at contest The finalists of the Best Kept Village in west Wiltshire have been named. Bratton came top in the large village section, beating Atworth, Bowerhill, Holt and North Bradley, while Sutton Veny was judged the best medium village, finishing ahead of Edington, Horningsham, Shaw and Whitely. Best small village is Chitterne, which saw off competition from Beanacre, Bishopstrow and Boreham, Brokerswood, Coulston and Great Hinton. Chairman of Chitterne Parish Council, Jeremy Reid said: "We are absolutely delighted. The people who work voluntarily are the ones who made it possible." Chitterne was the only village of the three not to have received the same accolade two years running. The last time they won was in 1997. Cllr Reid said: "We listened to the judges last time and we have made some improvements. "We changed the position of the notice board and we did restoration work on the recreation ground." The three winners will now go through to the county final, which will be judged later this summer. Chairman of Sutton Veny Parish Council, Tony Henthorne said: "We have a core group of people who have helped and they did a sterling job of cleaning the village and making it tidy. "We are looking forward to the next round of the competition and hopefully we will have better luck than we did last year." Clerk of Bratton Parish Council, Anita Whittle said: "We are very pleased. Everyone is delighted. "Special thanks must go to the village handyman, Bob Jordan who has been tidying all the village lanes.
