Peter Greenwood. A teller of tales and a dreamer of dreams, A builder of bridges, a planner of schemes. Could this be one person? You think it untrue? But just look again, for that person is you! Look back on your life and take stock of the years, And all you accomplished through laughter and tears. Remember the children, how they took your hand? Remember the stories, adventures you planned? And how you nursed someone in sickness and pain, No thought of reward and no question of gain? You may not feel clever, stand out in a crowd, But count your achievements, be thankful and proud, And look to the future, there’s much to be done, Keep building your bridges and planning your schemes, Remember that you are the weaver of dreams. Iris Hesselden Fill every day with some kind deed And you’ll be truly blessed, For helping someone who’s in need Brings peace and happiness. And you can always guarantee Your day’s been made worthwhile When you take the trouble to lend a hand And go that extra mile. 7 St Botolph’s Church , Knottingley REQUEST FOR AN ENTRY IN THE BOOK OF REMEMBRANCE Please complete this form and return to one of the Churchwardens, There is no fee for making an entry in the Book of Remembrance, but a donation towards the cost of a new Book will be most welcome, please make cheques payable to KNOTTINGLEY ST BOTOLPH'S PCC.

In 1919 in premises in the middle of Aire Street the Discharged Sailors and Soldiers Club was formed, now known as NADS&S club (low club). A fund was set up called ‘The Children of the Fallen Fund’ to provide meals, clothes, gifts and comforts to children left fatherless by the war. At Christmas in 1918 a Township Committee had given a postal order for ten shillings to all the ex servicemen. On the first Armistice Day, Tuesday 11th November 1919, two minutes silence was observed throughout the Town, at Schools, Churches, and Workplaces, initiated by the sounding of the buzzer at Bagley’s Glassworks in Knottingley, and by buzzers at Poulson’s Pottery and nearby Brown’s Pottery at Ferrybridge. On the 15th May 1921 the British Legion was formed bringing together four national organisations of ex servicemen that had been established as: National Association of Discharged Sailors and Soldiers, British National Federation of Discharged and Demobilized Sailors and Soldiers, The Comrades of The Great War and The Officers Association Known as the Earl Haig Fund, set up by Field Marshall Douglas Haig, the first poppy selling took place in 1921 to help World War 1 veterans with employment and housing. He was President of the British Legion until his death on 29th January 1928. The black button in centre of the poppy bore the words ‘Haig Fund.’ However, Haig was not popular and his war strategy was considered responsible for the slaughter of many soldiers at the Somme, indeed he became nicknamed ‘Butcher Haig.’ For this reason the charity tried to distance itself from the name of Earl Haig by re-branding as ‘Poppy Appeal.’ The first poppy appeal in Knottingley in 1921 was organised jointly by Revd Henry Snowden, Vicar of Christ Church, and Fred Hargraves of the British Legion, also a member of the Discharged Sailors and Soldiers Club, where the clubhouse was used as British Legion HQ. This sale of the symbolic poppy raised £24-1s-0d for the Earl Haig Fund. At this time there were two groups in Knottingley, who both claimed to be official representatives of the British Legion. One was based at the Discharged Sailors and Soldiers Club, and the other based at the Sailors Home. On 12th January 1926 the two sides met at the Buck Inn in Aire Street and agreed to unite the branch, after which things seem to have run smoothly. Officials appointed on a temporary basis were: Chairman J. 12 Brown; Hon Treasurer Leonard Hartley and Hon Secretary H. Coultas. Later the same year at a meeting the following were elected: President J. Brown Chairman Cr J.B. Hargrave Vice Chairman Cr W.H. Harker Hon Secretary H. Coultas Hon Treasurer L. Hartley Other Committee Members included: Messrs Fowles, Waddington. M. Bedworth, G. Livesy and R. Martin. By 1930 the Secretary was Cr Danny O’Driscoll, an outspoken character, often at conflict with the Council. The Branch was later to move to its own premises in Garden Lane, this was sold around 2008, and meetings moved to Knottingley Club.

With verve and self- assurance, it addresses a broad, central question: How can we improve our understanding of the large-scale processes and structures that transformed the world of the nineteenth century and are transforming our world today. Anstey takes us into new terrain and new interpretations of Locke's thought in his explorations of his mercurialist transmutational chymistry, his theory of generation by seminal principles, and his conventionalism about species. This second edition is fully revised and updated to include changes to the UK law as a result of recent EU legislation, which will have a significant impact on archivists and archival researchers. Research directors and legislative or administrative advisers do not have the time to scan the escalating number of technical publications that may contain articles mtportant to current responsibility. The author's treatment is mathematically thorough and consistent, and the book gives the necessary background on existential and conceptual graphs. Each of the chapters reviews current knowledge in a defined area of ecohydraulic experimental research. Embryology at a Glance introduces the basic principles of human development, from mitosis and meiosis, and walks you through the primary formation of each body system, with coverage of the continued development of the respiratory and vascular systems during the foetal and neonatal periods. Nonetheless there are overlaps that many families will identify with.

  • Anti-Bullying Policy
    Aberford Road, Garforth, Leeds, LS25 2HF T: 0113 212 7100 E: [email protected] W: www.egpa.org.uk …Changing Lives Anti-bullying Policy (In conjunction with Academy Behaviour Policy) This policy was formally adopted by East Garforth Primary Academy on: 1st September 2019 The renewal date for this policy is: 1st September 2020 Context The overall aim of the Academy is to have an educational community which promotes and provides excellence in teaching, learning, relationships and opportunities, through high expectations and adherence to traditional values. Therefore all members of the East Garforth Primary Academy have a right to feel welcome, secure and happy. Pupils should expect to learn in a supportive and caring environment without fear of bullying. Bullying is antisocial behaviour and affects everyone. Any form of bullying is totally unacceptable in the academy. However, human nature being as it is, despite our culture of zero tolerance towards this issue, there may be some instances of students attempting to bully each other within the Academy – often as a result of offsite situations or incidents. Therefore, we aim to deal with any bullying complaints firmly, fairly and promptly. We treat bullying as a serious offence and take every possible action to keep it to a minimum. Our Aims To create an environment where bullying is not tolerated. To ensure that all pupils are aware of their rights and responsibilities and know how to seek help if those rights are being violated. To encourage pupils to work well, develop good relationships and offer each other mutual support and respect.

Little has been written about the sequence of events at Ferrybridge & Dintingdale and their military and political importance; the various contemporary chronicles (e.g. those of the Pastons, Jean de Waurin, Croyland Abbey, and Edward Hall), while giving a broad outline, are tantalisingly vague about the detail of what happened on those cold days in late March 1461, as indeed they were about the Towton conflict. Modern writers, such as Phillip Haigh, Andrew Boardman and John Sadler to name but a few, mostly look briefly at the actions of Ferrybridge and Dintingdale before concentrating on the decisive events at Towton. Not all agree however; Tim Sutherland, in his “Killing Time” (please refer to this in the Research tab of our website) moves away from the view of Ferrybridge, Dintingdale and Towton as primarily infantry engagements fought over 48 hours, proposing that all 3 occurred within 24 hours as cavalry actions. This paper takes the view that the actions at Ferrybridge, Dintingdale and Towton took place over at least 3 days (4 if one counts the 26th as a precursor to Ferrybridge), that it was a joint infantry/cavalry action, and covered a much wider area than the narrow strip of terrain along the Great North road between Ferrybridge and Towton. It is based on a re-examination of the facts as they are outlined in various sources, and the identification of the gaps in these.
