39 Ravensworth Village Richmond North Yorkshire DL11 7ET 28th November 2017 Our meeting with you on 30th November 2017 Dear Ms Mulligan, We refer to our meeting to be held during your series of surgery sessions at Catterick on Thursday 30th November. We provided a brief summary of the reasons for seeking a meeting with you by email when booking our appointment for the surgery. However given the complex nature of the problem we wish to discuss, we recognise that it will not be possible to cover everything in detail in the time available. Over the years our community here in the village of Ravensworth has become increasingly concerned about the continuing high incidence of serious road accidents on our adjacent single-carriageway section of the A66. Only two days ago there was a very serious accident in which a driver was seriously injured and had to be air-lifted to hospital after being given life-saving treatment at the scene. Not one but two air ambulance attended this incident together with an extensive team of emergency responders and full police involvement, and the trunk road was closed for a total of 12 hours. Sadly this is not an isolated incident – there have been many such incidents through the years. In order to illustrate the magnitude of the problem and to provide you with a clear understanding of the concerns of our community, we have prepared the attached dossier outlining some the history of this local issue, some details of previous and recent serious road accidents and a summary of past and present communications to relevant agencies and authorities. We very much hope that as a result of this meeting you will be able to lend your support to enable us to jointly tackle this serious issue and agree firm plans with North Yorkshire Police and Highways England to establish measures to ensure improved road safety in this strategically important section of road. Yours sincerely Ken Bell Malcolm Burgess Chair of Ravensworth Parish Council Ravensworth A66 Action Group .

Governor Pen Portraits Barton, Ravensworth, East Cowton and Kirkby Fleetham CE Schools January 2021
Governor Pen Portraits Barton, Ravensworth, East Cowton and Kirkby Fleetham CE Schools January 2021 Forename Surname Role on Governing Body I have worked in small rural schools for over 20 years and am well aware of the vital role that these small schools play within their communities. I was appointed as Headteacher of Kirkby Fleetham CE School in September 2013, and became Executive Headteacher of East Cowton CE School in September 2015 when the schools federated. In September 2019 the schools entered into partnership with Barton and Ravensworth CE Schools and Helen Dudman Headteacher from then I have had the privilege of working with our amazing staff team to develop and strengthen a really solid partnership. I consider myself really lucky to be able to work in such beautiful settings, with such fabulous children and their families and enjoy the variety and challenge that being a head of four small schools brings! Currently apart from my role as interim chair of governors I am supporting the governance of another school and also a school governor of a local school. I am a National Leader of Governance, appointed in April 2015, I have worked with over 30 schools, including primary secondary and schools with different Ofsted gradings, in this time. The role has included supporting chairs of governors, facilitating governing board self-evaluations and leading effective governance sessions. Interim Chair Terry Cane of Governors I am a keen golfer and play regularly in club competitions, I enjoy gardening, walking and when necessary DIY, not sure if it’s a hobby! I prepare the Parish accounts for the 2 Parishes where I attend church.

The Ancient Parish of Kirkby Ravensworth
THE ANCIENT PARISH OF KIRKBY RAVENSWORTH by The Reverend Norman Butcher This book is dedicated to Mr. T.W. Metcalfe without whose inspiration and encouragement it would not have been written. I am greatly indebted to Mr. J. Merryne Watson of Newsham for his constant guidance and revision in the compilation of this exercise and for communicating to me his unrivalled knowledge of the life, history and geography of this parish, without which this work could not have been written. I am also indebted to Mr. E.T. Oram of Barwick-in-Elmet for his invaluable assistance in resolving the architectural nomenclature and kindred problems of this exercise. To each of the above and to all those who assisted me in this exercise, I express my thanks.

Newsletter Friday 25Th June 2021
Barton, Ravensworth, East Cowton 9 and Kirkby Fleetham CE Schools Cornerstone Schools Newsletter Building Futures with Love th Friday 25 June 2021 Dear Parents and Carers, On Monday our schools celebrated World Music day by learning about music in many forms from different parts of the world. In my travels around the schools I’ve heard some lovely recorder playing, some interesting African instrumentals, Brazilian Sambas, I’ve seen street dance and a New Zealand Haka and learned about an amazing Ethiopian string instrument called a masinko. Well done everyone – what a talented bunch you are! Coronavirus Sadly one of our schools had to close this week as a member of the school community tested positive for coronavirus. This means that all the children and staff are self-isolating for 10 days and are back to remote learning. It brings home the fact that the number of cases is rising in the area and that we still need to follow the guidance carefully and remain cautious. As you will all be aware, the government guidance states that: Pupils, staff and other adults must not come into the school if: • they have one or more COVID-19 symptoms • a member of their household (including someone in their support bubble or childcare bubble if they have one) has COVID-19 symptoms • they are legally required to quarantine, having recently visited countries outside the Common Travel Area • they have had a positive test • have been in close contact with someone who tests positive for COVID-19 If you or your child is unwell and you don’t know what to do you can contact 111.nhs.uk Please keep your child at home and arrange a test for them if they have symptoms.
