  • Boating on Sussex Rivers
    K1&A - Soo U n <zj r \ I A t 1" BOATING ON SUSSEX RIVERS NRA National Rivers Authority Southern Region Guardians of the Water Environment BOATING ON SUSSEX RIVERS Intro duction NRA The Sussex Rivers have a unique appeal, with their wide valleys giving spectacular views of Chalk Downs within sight and smell of the sea. There is no better way to enjoy their natural beauty and charm than by boat. A short voyage inland can reveal some of the most attractive and unspoilt scenery in the Country. The long tidal sections, created over the centuries by flashy Wealden Rivers carving through the soft coastal chalk, give public rights of navigation well into the heartland of Sussex. From Rye in the Eastern part of the County, small boats can navigate up the River Rother to Bodiam with its magnificent castle just 16 miles from the sea. On the River Arun, in an even shorter distance from Littlehampton Harbour, lies the historic city of Arundel in the heart of the Duke of Norfolk’s estate. But for those with more energetic tastes, Sussex rivers also have plenty to offer. Increased activity by canoeists, especially by Scouting and other youth organisations has led to the setting up of regular canoe races on the County’s rivers in recent years. CARING FOR OUR WATERWAYS The National Rivers Authority welcomes all river users and seeks their support in preserving the tranquillity and charm of the Sussex rivers. This booklet aims to help everyone to enjoy their leisure activities in safety and to foster good relations and a spirit of understanding between river users.

  • CHAILEY SCHOOL a Specialist Language and Humanities College Headteacher: Mrs Helen Key MA (Ed)
    CHAILEY SCHOOL A Specialist Language and Humanities College Headteacher: Mrs Helen Key MA (Ed) UNIFORM REQUIREMENTS YEARS 7-11 This detailed information sheet about our uniform requirements is designed to make things as clear as possible for parents when purchasing these items for their sons and daughters. The full list of uniform items, PE kit and equipment is given overleaf. Please do not hesitate to contact the Student Support Manager for your child’s year group should you need further advice/clarification. Our Student Support Managers are: Mrs J Hickman (Year 7) Mrs L Hutchinson (Years 8 and 9) Mrs F Kinderman (Years 10 and 11) General information regarding uniform The Chailey blazer is compulsory at all times in school. The school jumper may be added for extra warmth, but may not be worn instead of the blazer. Fashion items in colours, fabrics or styles noticeably different from the items from our suppliers are not acceptable school uniform. Please do not allow your child to convince you otherwise. If in doubt please contact your child’s Student Support Manager. The prescribed skirt length ensures that for all our female students, their skirt will be an appropriate length for school. Trainers are not school uniform – even black ones. Plain, black school shoes are required. If in doubt, look when shopping for the distinguishing marks of training shoes – logos, multiple lacing holes, soles that “wrap up” onto the upper, the lack of a distinct heel, and raised Achilles tendon guards at the back of the shoe. If footwear has some or all of these features we are likely to view them as training shoes.

This aims to align this BAP with the Sussex Biodiversity Action Plan. The document also demonstrates the Board’s commitment to fulfilling its duty as a public body under the Natural Environment and Rural Communities Act 2006 to conserve biodiversity. Many of the Board’s activities have benefits and opportunities for biodiversity, not least its water level management and ditch maintenance work. It is hoped that this Biodiversity Action Plan will help the Board to maximise the biodiversity benefits from its activities and demonstrate its contribution to the Government’s UK Biodiversity Action Plan targets as part of the Biodiversity 2020 strategy. The Board has adopted the Biodiversity Action Plan as one of its policies and subject to available resources is committed to its implementation. It will review the plan periodically and update it as appropriate. Bill Gower Chairman of the Board PEVENSEY AND CUCKMERE WLMB – BIODIVERSITY ACTION PLAN CONTENTS ABBREVIATIONS & ACRONYMS 1 1
