Our advert has been concentrating on both pre and post retirement planning, during the last few months, and

thought it time to concentrate on the protection side of Financial Planning.

We all know that we have to provide for those nearest and dearest to us should we die early or become long

term ill, and there are numerous places that this type of product can be purchased, but do you buy it off the

shelf, or do you get professional advice on the right amount and type of cover that you need.

We search the whole market place to ensure you get the right product for your personal needs, we will also

make sure that the Policy is owned by the person who needs the proceeds should the worst happen, or write

it into trust if this is best suited to your personal needs, all the above is usually included at no additional cost.

Why do we do the above, one example is that if you are self employed and own your own life assurance

policy, then unfortunately die early, your business has to be finalised first, and HMRC paid before probate, can

be finalised. This could delay the payment to your family for up to 1 year or more, and if like the majority you

have not made a Will could be considerably longer.

As stated in previous adverts your first appointment is at our cost, however with regards to protection

advice, we will review your existing arrangements, and if we cannot better what you have already got in place

the review will also be at our cost, so the exercise will have cost you nothing other than the time you spend in our office.

We are also Licensed to take instruction on Will writing.

Slimming Diary I have avoided this day for so long, that's why i have just got bigger over the past 6 months, i just love to

eat everything, especially sweet things and you've guessed it the dreaded chocolate!

I have tried every diet over the past 20 years, always

lost a stone or 2, but just put it straight back on. A few years ago I was 4 stone overweight, I felt out of control! My friends told me how good the Cambridge Diet was, so I thought why not! Within 12 weeks I

had lost 3.5 stone and was the thinnest I had been for years, a size 10-12, I looked fantastic! I kept the weight off for 3 years, but eventually all my old habits

returned, so here i am again wondering how to get rid of the weight! I was so annoyed with myself letting the weight pile back on, but everyone knows with a

weight problem, the problem never goes away, you have to work at it 100%. This is when I decided to ring Debbie at the

Cambridge Diet who is based in Epworth. Debbie sounded so motivated for me to lose the weight again, I hadn‘t even met her and I felt better already!

West Butterwick = Anti-Social Behaviour

and Criminal Damage.

There have been incidents of criminal damage

stolen from a garden. No specific times have

been identified for these crimes; however infor-

mation gathering are on-going. With the lighter evenings approaching reports of off road

motor bikes are also beginning to be brought to the attention of Neighbourhood staff with

bikes on the field at the hall, these incidents although sporadic at this time with no particular

times of when it occurs, however police and staff will deal with any offenders and bikes will be seized.

The Neighbourhood team together with incident response staff are making regular patrols of the area and will

deal with any offences and offenders committing crime. If anyone has any information regarding any of these

matters please contact any member of the Neighbourhood team or if witnessing any incident please phone

through for an incident log to be created on 0845 60 60 222.

UPDATE; - Calls for service have reduced considerably in the last month. Neighbourhood staff

will continue to monitor the area to ensure this level remains.

Farmland off the B1396 Westwoodside.

Description of the priority: There has been a considerable increase in calls for service to land on both sides of

the B1396 as it leads out of Westwoodside and also down Idle Bank and Pelfintax. The times of reports vary

from early hours to throughout the day. The calls include reports of theft, burglary, suspicious persons with

dogs and criminal damage. A considerable amount of work and liaison has been built between Neighbourhood

staff and the owners and staff working on land to engage them and to identify where offences and offenders are

committing these acts and routes they use. A particular vehicle that was of concern has been stopped and dealt

with by the police, but together with Incident response we will deal with offenders and their vehicles which are

causing a lot of interference with the work on land.

If you have any good experiences of using

tradesman through the Arrow, email

[email protected]

and let everyone know.

Dear Carolyn Editor of the Arrow

Our garage roof needed re-roofing, so we contacted

Eliot, the proprietor of EPG Roofing Ltd. Having

found his advertisement in The Arrow. He arrived

exactly on time gave us a very reasonable quote,

and carried out the work with first class materials

and stayed until it was completed, took away all

rubbish, and did an excellent tidying up job. We

were delighted with his professionalism and

workmanship.

We shall certainly use the Arrow again, when

searching for a local tradesman, or any other

service.

Garden Open for NGS 23 & 24,

30 &31 July 11:00am to 4:00pm Fieldhouse Farm Field Lane Wroot

Could there be a more enjoyable way to give to

charity than an enjoyable and relaxing couple of

hours strolling around a beautiful garden, pausing to

have a cup of tea and sample delicious homemade

cakes?

Sue Dare Garden Designer and owner designed this

garden 8 years ago as a garden to walk around and

relax in and to provide a stage for

exuberant planting.

Paths lead around large borders

which include cottage and prairie

style planting, a pond with decked

seating area and colourful planting,

willow structures, metal and ce-

ramic sculpture, water features,

bamboo screen clothed in climb-

ers, small shade garden, topiary, a

poly tunnel and green house with

productive vegetable garden and

lots of seating areas.

There is also a sculpture trail

around the garden with many

interesting and unique sculptures

in a variety of media e.g. wood,

metal, wire, glass, and ceramic. In the house there is a small art exhibition with watercolours, oils, acrylics

and painting on silk plus small ceramic sculpture, and fused glass jewellery. And if you have any Garden

Design questions or problems Sue will be happy to talk to you.

This gardening year has been exceptionally challenging with the extreme cold weather of autumn followed

by an exceptionally warm

dry spring with a late air

frost. We have had to

work extra hard to fill the

gaps left by the large

plants and shrubs killed by

the difficult weather. We

decided to see this as an

opportunity to revitalise

our planting and have

grown lots of annuals to

fill the gaps whilst more

permanent planting gets

going. So those of you

who have visited the

garden before will find we

look a bit different and

hopefully more colourful

than ever.

Communication is very important in life - saying what you feel and think, and under-

standing what makes others tick. If it‘s that important, how then does God communicate with us? And

how do we communicate with God?

God communicates with us through the Bible, teaching us about himself, as well as showing us how we

should live in a way that will make us much happier human beings.

Another way that God communicates with us is through a little voice inside us that I believe is his Holy

Spirit guiding us.

And sometimes God uses other Christians to help us know the right way ahead.

And how do you and I communicate with God? If you can talk, then you can talk to God, and you don‘t

need any special language. What should we say in our prayers? I find the following simple and easy-to-

remember guidelines quite helpful:

Look up – tell God what you think of him, thank him for all the things you are inclined to take for

granted.

Look in – say sorry to God for the wrong things you have said or done, or that you should have done

and failed to do.

Look around – think of others who need God‘s help, and name them before him.

Look forward – we all have our own needs and worries about the future. We read in the Bible that we

should cast all our anxieties on God because he cares for us. So don‘t be afraid to tell God about the

things that trouble you, and ask him to guide and help you.

On the afternoon of Friday 20 May Westwoodside Church of England School held an exhibition of children’s work on the theme of ‘Celebrations’ in our hall. There was a tremendous display of learning from F1 (Nursery) to Year 6, including celebrating:-

200 years of Church Schools 400 years since the King James Bible Diversity e.g. Passport Days and Rhymes from Around the World RE Festivals The Wonders of Nature.

Several Parents/Carers etc. enjoyed visiting our exhibition and all the classes in School had the opportunity to look around. A special thank you should go to the child ‘experts’ from each class who were available in the exhibition to explain and answer questions.

We have been successful in obtaining a free Bible for each child in Years 2 to 5 from a charity called Bibles for Children who also funded this year’s Bibles which will be presented to our Year 6 children at their Leav-ers’ Service in July. Each Year 2 to 5 child will have their own Bible, with a personalised presentation sticker, to keep and use in School and will be able to take their Bible home when they leave. The Haxey Endowed Trust has very kindly agreed to fund Bibles for each child in Year 2 and Year 6 in future years.

Best wishes

The Isle of Axholme

Where You Live Your Local History Adapted by Anthony Catherall

EPWORTH FREE SCHOOL The Rev. Henry Clifford, Rector of Wroot and predecessor of Samuel Wesley, set up

Epworth Free School in 1711. Seven trustees and their heirs were appointed. The schoolmaster was provided with a house. Some land was allocated to provide for the school:

Schoolhouse croft 1 acre 1 rood 12 perches Church field 3 roods 5 perches South field 1 rood 27 perches East field 1 rood 28 perches Bellshaw 3 acres 3 roods 2 perches

Total: 6 acres 2 roods 34 perches.

A limit of 14 scholars was fixed when the school opened. In 1829 the number was

increased to 20. Instruction was restricted to reading. Parents wishing their children to be taught writing had to pay 2/6 or 3/- (pre 1971 currency) a quarter. No child could stay at

school for more than three years. In 1856 the school abolished any payment. In 1873 the

Council of Education suggested that a school be set up to cope with 120 boys or 100 infants on or near the site of the Free School. A trustees meeting of 1874 was asked that the school

be used as a Parish School, but this was refused. However, a piece of land in Battle Green was bought to set up a Board School. Mr. George Mason the master, opened this on October

6th 1876. The Free School finally closed in July 1880 and the 20 free scholars were

transferred to the Board School.

www.coneygarthfarmdaynursery.co.uk

After completion of a new extension we have had a very busy time here at

Coneygarth Farm Day Nursery. A new viewing area for the Out of School Club has enabled

children to see more of the farm and has been a huge success. After Christmas the children were able to

watch the Lincoln Red cattle who all calved within 2 months. It is very exciting to watch the cows and

sheep, from such a short distance and see how they behave.

Next came lambing which is always a huge success with with the children and parents, this coincides with

the Easter Holidays so the children at the holiday club also enjoyed this experience.

This month all the sheep have been brought in for shearing and 3 hours later they were back grazing in the

field enjoying the sun without their winter coats on and thankfully all the baby lambs found their

mummies again!!!

These are just a few of the things the children can experience at the nursery along with tending the

vegetable garden, collecting eggs from the resident hens and

playing in the nursery wood, large garden and willow den and

of course covering all aspects of the Early Years Foundation

Stage.

We are now busy preparing for the summer holidays which

will be action packed and exciting!

If you are interested in either Nursery places or Holiday

Club (5-11yrs) do not hesitate to contact us and arrange a

visit ALSO don't forget we offer 15 HOURS FLEXIBLE

FREE provision for 3-5 year olds.


As part of supplementing and sup-

porting the curriculum, Year 5 of

Haxey Primary School excitedly

travelled to Eden Camp War Mu-

seum, for an introduction on our

topic World War II. When we eventually entered Eden Camp, after a

restless journey we drove through the gates and

there in front of us was a huge war plane.

We were split into groups and we walked around

each hut, and in every one there was a surprise.

There were a few huts that stood out to me. The

Blitz, evacuation, the streets and the jobs.

In the Blitz it was like standing in a house with bombs dropping all around you. It started off where there

was information but then, as our group turned the corner, I was frightened right down to my toes. There

was a hand moving from underneath the rubble. At that moment my heart was pounding, so I quickly

walked out of the hut.

The other hut I enjoyed was the evacuation I thought it was going to be like the Blitz and scare me so I

held my breath, and nervously stepped through the door. I trembled round a corner but it was nothing

like the Blitz at all. It actually touched my heart. On the walls were old photographs of children being

evacuated. I saw children crying and saying goodbye to their family as they might never see them again.

Near to the end we went to the hut about the bombed streets. I peered through the door and an awful

smell hit my nose. It smelt like candles that had just been blown out but worse there was a picture of

Winston Churchill looking at the damage of the street. There was also a picture of a huge wall that had

fallen over.

The last hut my group went to was on jobs. I found

out when all the men went to war the women had to

do all the men‘s jobs, which the women thought was

a great honour. The women‘s jobs were farming,

making bombs and much more. I learnt alot about

World War II at Eden Camp, and I know it will help

me alot in class. I found it really realistic with the

smells and the models. I loved the trip. From it I

would like to learn more about the evacuated chil-

dren.

HAXEY & WESTWOODSIDE HERITAGE

SOCIETY REPORT

At the June meeting of the society members welcomed the Rev.

Richard Plant whose talk for the evening was ‗Roman Coins‘.

Before going into the detail of individual coins of the Roman

Empire, Richard explained how previous to the introduction of

coins in 269BC bartering was the system used with cows one of

the means of trade.

Using slides to demonstrate individual coins Richard showed how

coins became a means of proclaiming events from battles (Trophy

coins) to personalities, coins were also used to promote

individuals aspirations to power as these were minted by the

persons themselves rather than by the Roman mint.

Coins varied in size, weight and material according to their value,

originally ranging from ½ oz. to 12oz. in copper, bronze and silver,

the development of Roman coins with their various denominations

and identifying symbols led directly to our own (now defunct) Pounds, Shillings and Pence

Librae Solidi Dinarii = £. s. d.

When important Romans died they were deified thus becoming gods with many coins depicting this,

Richard completed his presentation by inviting members to view a display of his own coin collection.

Giving the ‗vote of thanks‘ Mr. Geoff. Starr thanked Richard for a talk that had taken the audience through

Roman history and had reminded us of our own history depicted in our pre-decimal coinage.

Prior to introducing the speaker the chairman, Mrs. Jackie Starr, had welcomed new member Simon

Burgess and visitor Malcolm Dalby to the meeting, the members were also told that the society‘s

secretary, Mrs. Mary Spalding, was progressing well after her hospital operation.

Members were reminded of forthcoming events, Haxey Parish week-end 25/26 June, Misterton Gala

9th.July and were given an early invitation to attend the Society‘s final Literary Award presentation at the

Primary schools Leavers Service at St. Nicholas Church, Haxey on Wednesday 13th. July.

The meeting closed with refreshments served.

The next meeting of the Society will be on Thursday 14th. July when Mr. Aubrey Lindley will speak on ‗Farming in the Isle‘.

THE TRENTSIDE CONFEDERATION – SCHOOL NEWS

The second part of the Summer Term got off to a creative start with more clay workshops running for

both schools, held at West Butterwick Village Hall. Artist Shaun Clark demonstrated the art of tile

making with cutting and mark making, interchanging segments and lots of other creative tricks! The

results were impressive from both infants and juniors and soon these will be on display in school as the

tiles are to be painted then framed.

The first of our two Sports Afternoons took place at St Martin‘s on Thursday 9th June, having first of all

tried for Wednesday 8th June but the weather was definitely against us first time round! I am pleased to

report that Version 2 of Sports Afternoon 2011 went really well at Owston Ferry resulting in the

following prize winners :-

Cusworth Cup, encouraging and recognising sporting achievement of the school‘s youngest pupils went to

Maisie Smith

Year 1 overall winner was Hannah Barker Year 2 – overall winner was Abigail Platt

British Legion Shield, awarded to Year 3 overall winner, was presented to Josh Oatway

Kelfield Shield, awarded to year 4 overall winner, was presented to Brittany Wootton

5 Sam Hattersley

Year 6 Johnson Trophy, in memory of Mr and Mrs Johnson, former Governors of our school was awarded

to Daniel Glew and Georgia Martin. Daniel and Georgia are the highest scoring pupils in Year 6

overall.

For ‗Sporting Endeavours‘, trying their very hardest, we awarded the Fletcher Cup (given by the Fletcher

Family who farmed in the village for years) to Devon Ibbotson, Year 6. Devon has just overcome an

injury to win her first race ever at Sports Day! She has, over the years at our school, never failed to

cheer on all the other pupils, demonstrating great sportsmanship skills with a positive attitude.

Team Colour Cup – the winning team with the most points overall was Kinnard (Red)

Thank you to everyone who helped us out, especially the PTA for organising the refreshments and

everyone who supported the raffle. We now look forward to West Butterwick‘s Sports Afternoon on

Wednesday 29th June.

On the first Monday of the month,

instead of the usual second,

members of the club were

entertained by June Borrowdale, a

North East Demonstrator from

Carlton-in-Lindrick with her

demonstration entitled ―Buds,

Blooms and Twigs‖. June used twisted

willow, contorted hazel and silver painted materials

for her ―twigs‖ and created beautiful designs with

snapdragons, tulips of different shades, carnations,

tiny orchids and chrysanthemums amongst many

others. She decorated a large screen with ivy and

shamrock chrysanthemums and used dainty red

roses, completing the beautiful and original

arrangement with Gloriosa Lilies, a flower new to

many of the members. For another arrangement

June created a cage into which she inserted

honeysuckle, campanula, purple flocks, stilby and a

rose named Rosamunde which represents the

white rose of Yorkshire and the Lancastrian red

rose.

To conclude the evening and in celebration of the

club‘s 50th anniversary year, June created a golden

anniversary arrangement using gilded palm leaves,

gilded fatsia, sphinx roses, golden yellow carnations

and tiny cream orchids.

As she demonstrated June gave one or two

teaching points and told us of her experience of

being examined to become an Area Demonstrator.

She also told us of the honour she felt at being

chosen to be part of a team to display at Chelsea

Flower Show next year.

The enjoyable evening was concluded with a raffle

and the usual tea and coffee.

The next meeting of the flower club will be on

Monday 11th July at

7.30p.m.in the

Stephen Jones

Community Hall,

Haxey when Norman

Britton from

Finningley will

entertain with an

evening entitled

―Bonsai with School

May 18th was a competition night and it really had members of

Axholme Camera Club members scratching their heads. The final competition

of 2010 - 11 season was entitled "Elements - Earth, Wind, Fire and Water". A vast array of very inter-

esting and enterprising prints were entered from most of the members, plus there was some very artistic

creativity from others.

The judge, Mr Ernie Jackson from Doncaster openly admitted it was his first time every that he had come

across a competition with such an ambitious title. However, he set about to deliver the best print, firstly

looking for technical quality while also portraying the competi-

tion title. He had difficulty both in the coloured and Mono

sections, having narrowed them down to two print in each

class. In the colour he was unable to separate the two so

awarded both 20 points. Sandy Sanderson entered a very

creative print called "Consuming the Elements" and Ivan

Sedgewick put forward a Yorkshire landscape including a

steam train in motion, called "Northern Lights Elements".

While in the Mono section the judges answer was to ask for a

coin as there was nothing between them, nevertheless, after

very close scrutiny he gave David Neale 20 points for his print

entitled "Behind the Waterfall" and 19 points to George

Fiddler for his print titled "Sunshine After the Storm" .

Other high scorers on the night were Jan Neale 19 points and

an 18 points in the mono section, Guy Myers 18 points and

Peter Webster 18 points in the colour section.

Later Mr Ernie Jackson thanked the club for inviting him to

judge such a display of good quality prints.

Haxey Rainbows enjoyed an exciting trip to Epworth

Fire Station as part of their ‗People who help us‘

theme last term. The Fire Station Officers gave a tour of the station,

letting the girls try on their fire fighting uniforms and helmets.

The Firemen also gave the Rainbows important instructions about what to do if

they found a fire at home and how to ring for the Emergency services.

The girls were also able to explore the Fire Engine and all the equipment on board.

To finish the evening the Rainbows were allowed to try out fire fighting techniques with high

pressure water hoses.

A great visit was had by all and our thanks to the Fire Officers on duty who gave up their time to show us

round and make the evening fun and informative.

Haxey Rainbow Guides are part of the International Girl Guide Movement and from Rainbows, girls can

move up to Brownies and usually on to Guides.

We are actively looking for leaders to re-start the Epworth/Haxey Guide Units so that our enthusiastic

and rewarding Rainbows can continue to enjoy all that Girl Guiding can offer right through into their teens

and adulthood.

Could you give some time and energy to lead or help with our local Guide Unit?

It is great fun, very rewarding and there is lots of support and events for Leaders too. It just takes

someone to come forward to offer their time and energy to get a Guide group going again!

Traffic Lights

Dear Readers,

When approaching traffic lights, stop at or just before the stop line and then apply the hand brake and

select neutral. Never pull up to close behind other traffic at lights, leave yourself enough room and always

stop your vehicle so that you can see the rear tyres of the vehicle in front on the tarmac. By doing this

you‘re able to manoeuvre around them should they stall or breakdown and if an approaching emergency

vehicle wants to pass you will have the room to get out of the way,

At the lights, try to keep an eye on the lights controlling the other routes. As soon as they turn amber,

consider selecting first gear and prepare to release the handbrake as your lights should go to green in the

next few seconds.

If you can‘t see the other lights, look for signs of the traffic slowing as their lights go to red. Use this

anticipation to your advantage but never move off before your lights turn green. This advanced

observation at traffic lights can speed up your progress. Look ahead and if there are several lanes choose

the lane of least ‗resistance‘- the one with less traffic in it or the one without the slow- moving lorry or

bus. Often the inside lane is empty which not only gives you a clear run, but also means you won‘t get

held up by other traffic that will have to stop to turn right.

Observe the traffic you can see beyond the lights. Often lanes will merge.

Aim for the lane that lets you make the best

progress.

Time your arrival at traffic lights when they are

green. If you see a red light ahead, lift off the

accelerator to delay your arrival instead of

‗steaming‘ up to the light and having to brake firmly

and change gears.

Always be aware of drivers running red lights, also

keep an eye out for the peddle cyclist who ignores

the red as this trait is increasingly common on

today‘s crowded roads.

Making well- timed intelligent and planned progress

on busy roads is a uniquely satisfying experience-

especially when you slip effortlessly pass the high-

revving, push-in-at-any-cost driver who rocketed by

you moments earlier only to end up in the wrong

lane at the traffic lights.
