ACHIEVEMENTS, HIGHLIGHTS, SUCCESSES<br />

Rixton-with-Glazebrook Pre-school children are enjoying<br />

gathering and chatting on their new outdoor decking, picnic bench<br />

and beanbags. In July there was not a dry eye in the house as children<br />

performed songs and dances followed by a leaver’s presentation that<br />

looked back at their time at Pre-school. The staff wish them all the<br />

best for the future. To find out more about Pre-school places - see<br />

p.10 for contact details.<br />

St. Helen’s Primary School staff were very proud of their pupils at<br />

the end of term performances as Key Stage 2 children entertained<br />

audiences with their play ‘School Days - the best days of our life’,<br />

and Year 6 led a moving and meaningful church service in which they<br />

shared their memories and hopes and dreams for the future. The staff<br />

wish the school leavers every future happinesss and success.<br />

School continue to offer a range of after school activities including<br />

Choir on Mondays; Ethos Groups on Tuesday; Fusion Dance Classes<br />

(see p.10) and Contact Rugby for Years 3-6. Recently some Key<br />

Stage 2 children took part in Fencing classes before school on<br />

Tuesday mornings which were very popular, even though it meant<br />

an early 8am start! Children in Y5 received Bike Ability training<br />

recently to learn how to be safe on the road. Football and sports<br />

coaching sessions continue thanks to the generous funding from the<br />

Hamilton Davies Trust (HDT). In the autumn term HDT also helped<br />

school organise a litter pick and a Drugs Awareness talk - see p. 7.<br />

School have recently signed up to Twitter – you can follow them on<br />

various school activities visit: www.hollins-green.eschools.co.uk<br />

Members of Hollins Green Sequence Dancing classes spent an<br />

enjoyable weekend in Llandudno and are looking forward to their<br />

forthcoming dancing break in St. Annes in February 2017.<br />

Over 40 Friends of Hollinfare Cemetery volunteers enjoyed an<br />

evening get together at Boysnope Golf Club in October. The Friends<br />

group has now been operating for six years, during which time<br />

many friendships have been formed. Due to ongoing improvements, the<br />

cemetery received the Green Flag Award for the fourth year running.<br />
