  • 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.

  • GREAT WISHFORD C of E (VA) PRIMARY SCHOOL West Street, Great Wishford, Salisbury, Wilts SP2 OPQ
    GREAT WISHFORD C of E (VA) PRIMARY SCHOOL West Street, Great Wishford, Salisbury, Wilts SP2 OPQ www.greatwishfordschool.co.uk “No challenge too big, no child too small.” The School Great Wishford Primary School is a Church of England Aided School. The school is situated in the delightful semi-rural setting in the attractive village of Great Wishford approximately 6 miles north west of Salisbury in the Wylye Valley. Great Wishford School has a long and interesting history and is one of the oldest working schools in Wiltshire. The original listed building, adjacent to the road, dates from 1722. A Victorian addition now forms the staff room and kitchenette. In 1961 the school was significantly enlarged by the addition of three classrooms, an entrance foyer and classroom facilities. In 1997 a conservatory was added which is called Woodpecker Classroom and has an outdoor classroom and enclosed garden attached to it. Additional building work in 2005 saw the addition of a fourth classroom and a new hall and re-designed Reception/Year 1 classroom and outdoor area. A new library and meeting room has also been developed to further improve the learning environment for our pupils and staff. The school grounds are extensive and have been developed over the years. They include a tarmac play area, a very large grassed area for sports and games, an Early Years enclosed garden with an all- weather surface and garden areas off all the lower ground floor classrooms. The wild area continues to develop with the inclusion of a ‘Chill out Zone’, a log creative play zone, a story-telling seating area and a trim trail.

  • Commons and Communities by Graham Bathe.Pdf
    Commons and Communities Graham Bathe, Foundation for Common Land Great Wishford Folklore On Oakapple day each year inhabitants of Great Wishford rise before dawn and collect green boughs from Grovely wood. These are used to decorate the church and village prior to village processions and dancing. Sticks are gathered into small bundles called knitches. Villagers take their green oak boughs to Salisbury Cathedral where Knitch Ladies perform a dance. In the cathedral, villagers read a charter asserting their right to take green boughs, and then they yell ‘Grovely Grovely and All Grovely’. Customs of the Manor of Great Wishford 1597 Imprimis the Lords and the freeholders of Wyshford and Barford hath and ever had an old ancient custom and of right ought to have for themselves and all theire tenants common of pasture for all manner of beastes and cattell through all Grovely for all the year, except cattle of two teeth and pigges above a year old in the fence month only.

  • Rrn Autumn Newsletter 2014
    25 August 2014 ROUGH RUNNING NEWS From the Editor What a summer it’s been with hot sun making running and racing more difficult, but who can complain? Well plenty do of course, but personally i love hot summers and if it means getting up and running early beating the heat then so much the better. Of course races happen when they happen and keeping cool can become an issue, never mind sunburn (sunscreen and running don’t go so well together = sweat!) and extra chaffing due to sweat. The countryside seems to have exploded in greenery (unwanted to runners) along all trails, far too many stingers, brambles and cutting legs to shreds crops. But all part of off-road running. I was lucky enough to be sent out to Chamonix from work at the last minute to lead a Tour of Mont Blanc trek a few weeks ago and saw so many runners out along the trails no doubt training for the UTMB (last weekend in August) or just out running, very inspiring. On our ‘rest day’ i went out and had a fabulous run in the Val Ferret (Italy) along the TMB route for 12 miles and pretended i was in the UTMB. It was glorious running - mostly a balcony path above the valley so not too extreme mountain wise - only marred by low cloud so no views. Congratulations and thanks are due to Tilly for organising another great series of TACH races and good luck to Matt as he takes over this task. The races all were successful thanks also to all the people who helped organise, marshall and compete in them.
