Walk for Parkinson’s – Welford Park
 
Join Parkinson’s UK on Sunday 29 April 2018 when we will be returning to Welford Park for our sponsored Walk for Parkinson’s.  There will be two different circular walks available, a 2.5 mile walk and a more challenging 6.5 mile walk around the beautiful Welford Park estate, home of the Great British Bake Off.  During the walk you will cross the River Lambourn, climb the hill to see the impressive cricket pitch whilst overlooking the historic Welford Park, explore the wonderful woodland before crossing the fields and taking in the lovely views of the surrounding countryside.
 
Entry fee is £10 for adults and £5 for under 16s and all walkers will receive a Parkinson’s UK t-shirt, plus a medal on completing the walk.
 
The funds raised from the Walk for Parkinson’s – Welford Park will go to Parkinson’s UK to support the vital research work taking place to find a cure for Parkinson’s and improve the lives of the 127,000 people in the UK who are affected by the condition.  We support those living with Parkinson’s and their families and friends, so that no one has to face Parkinson’s alone.

TAKE FIVE TO STOP FRAUD WEEK22-26 JANUARY 2018
Neighbourhood Watch is proud to be supporting Take Five To Stop Fraud Week. 

Take Five To Stop Fraud Week is part of the national campaign from Financial Fraud Action UK and the Government, backed by the banking industry coming together to tackle fraud. 

The advice being issued this week is really simple but it can stop you becoming a victim of fraud. 
  1. A genuine bank or organisation will never contact you out of the blue to ask for your PIN, full password or to move money to another account. Only give out your personal or financial details to use a service that you have given your consent to, that you trust and that you are expecting to be contacted by.
  2. Don’t be tricked into giving a fraudster access to your personal or financial details. Never automatically click on a link in an unexpected email or text.
  3. Always question uninvited approaches in case it’s a scam. Instead, contact the company directly using a known email or phone number.

Public Consultation on School Terms

5/1/2018

0 Comments

 
Consultation on proposed term dates for 2019/20
 
Term dates for community and voluntary controlled schools are set by West Berkshire Council following a consultation process.   West Berkshire will ‘propose’ term dates and would recommend that schools consider aligning term dates with other schools in the area, for example, secondary schools with primary schools, in recognition of families with children at different schools.
 
In West Berkshire, the set dates traditionally include a common INSET at the start of the Autumn Term.  Therefore, 191 days are set with recommendations for the remaining 4 INSET days.
 
The 2019/20 proposal for West Berkshire sets a common INSET day on Tuesday 3rd September 2019 with four further training days to be selected from outside specified pupil’s days.
  
The proposed dates for 2019/20 have been through our internal consultation process and are now available for public consultation.  The consultation runs from 8 January until 16 February 2018.  The deadline for feedback and comments is 16 February 2018.
 
There are 2 options proposed with the difference being a later holiday in October.
