  • North Staffordshire Forest Plan 2019 to 2028
    North Staffordshire Forest Plan 2019 to 2028 1 North Staffordshire Forest Plan 2019 to 2028 Summary The North Staffordshire Forest Plan (FP) summaries proposals by the Forestry Commission for the management of six woodlands, Big Bishops (352ha), Little Bishops (81ha), Burnt Wood (88ha), Tittensor (72ha) , Swynnerton Old Park (329ha) and Walton’s Wood (13ha). The plan area of 935ha lies 8km west of Stoke on Trent and 19km northwest of Stafford, with easy access from the M6 and local conurbations. The proposed management for each woodland will contribute to the landscape character area (Staffordshire Plain Regional Character Area 61) and landscape policy objectives through no loss of woodland cover, the restoration of former ancient woodland sites and the continued active management of woodlands in the landscape. The FP woodlands are largely (88%) ancient woodland sites now planted with conifers. Pine is the main conifer species covering 50% of the woodland area. Felling operations carried out over the last 25 years as the conifer crops have matured has created a diverse woodland structure across most of the FP and the transitional open space has created niche habitats for ground nesting birds and a wide selection of Lepidoptera have been recorded. The management plans objectives will be to grow commercial crops on a sustainable basis, gradual restoration of ancient woodlands, diversify further the forest structure through thinning and felling, increase deadwood habitats and the number of Trees of Special Interest (TSI) and maintain the public access. The principal ecological interest in the plan is associated with the transitional open space, ride sides and associated fauna.

  • Zeppelins Over Trentham
    Zeppelins over Trentham Zeppelin raids had taken place at points across the country from 1915, but it was believed that the Midlands were too far inland to be reached by airships. On 31st January 1916, the area was taken by surprise as a number of airships reached the Midlands. One was seen over Walsall at 20.10 and another attacked Burton at 20.30. Lighting restrictions were not in force at the time, so the local area, including the steelworks at Etruria, were lit up. A zeppelin approached from the south and was seen over Trentham. Frederick Todd, the Land Agent for the Trentham Estate, reported that: “At least two zeppelins, who were evidently making their way to Crewe, dropped seven bombs at Sideway Colliery without much damage - they missed their objectives which were the Power House, the by-products plant, and the pit-head installation.” They made craters, but caused no injuries or loss of life. Following this raid, precautions were taken, with blackouts and restrictions on lighting. In 1915 Trentham Church reported spending £3 on insurance against zeppelin attack and damage. On Monday 27th November 1916, a clear, dry night, the German Navy Airship LZ 61 [Tactical number L21], in the company of nine other Zeppelins, crossed the Yorkshire coast. It initially attacked Leeds but was repelled by anti-aircraft fire. Commanded by Oberleutnant Kurt Frankenberg, the LZ61 was on its 10th raid of England, and had also carried out 17 reconnaissance missions. At 22.45 a warning was received locally. Black out and air raid precautions were taken.

  • Kemball School Spring 2020 Newsletter
    Kemball School Spring 2020 Newsletter Hello Everyone, Well I never thought that we would be ending the Spring term like this, with the whole country on lockdown, worried about catching a potentially deadly virus. These are indeed very scary times. This virus is very serious otherwise the Government would not be taking such extreme steps to protect people from catching and spreading it. With this in mind, as you know, we have made the decision to only open to certain pupils whose parents are either key workers or where, in conjunction with social care, we have identified that children will be at a greater risk by not coming into school. We made this decision for the following reasons: In order to provide a safe environment for our students, we need high ratios of well trained, medically competent, experienced staff who understand your children. With staff illness and their own vulnerabilities I can’t guarantee the same high student to teacher ratios that we need to safely meet the needs of the students. Concerns about the potential risk to the health of our children – if we take the government advice, by the very nature of our school, our children have underlying health conditions that make them vulnerable. Government guidance has identified having a learning need as being a vulnerable category. The Government have seemed to forgotten that having an EHCP won’t protect your child from catching the virus or bringing it back to their family. We are unable to keep a social distance in a school – our students are sociable and have no concept of personal space – we are unable to socially isolate Your child is having close 1:1 personal contact with our staff, particularly if they need physical management, feeding and personal care.
