Police Clampdown on Domestic Burglary Police in Doncaster are reinforcing and continuing the fight against people who commit burglaries.

Operation Account has been set up to take place over the next eight weeks to drive down burglary and to target people who continue to commit burglary offences.

Burglary dwellings in Doncaster have reduced by 16% in the past year however, there has been a slight increase in the south of the borough during April. Police continue to remind home owners that they can still do more to stop burglaries.

Detective Inspector Steve Whittaker from the Priority Crime Team in Doncaster said, "We all have our part to play in reducing offences of burglary. Although crime levels are at an all time low, we are urging home owners to be more vigilant.‖ Advice to be more vigilant includes making sure alarms are working and set and that car keys are kept out of view in the home to deter opportunistic thieves.

Detective Inspector Whittaker added, ―South Yorkshire Police take offences of burglary extremely seriously and we will do everything we can to prevent and detect burglaries. If we suspect you of committing crime, we will do everything in our power to bring you to justice. Patrols in the area have been increased with a view to disrupting as much criminal behaviour as possible."

The police will continue to reassure the public and seek the publics support during this operation and thereafter, to ensure that burglary offences are driven down.

Police would ask the public to always report any suspicious behaviour or activity to the police on 0114 2202020, or via crimestoppers on 0800 555 111. All information will be dealt with in the strictest of confidence.

Race Night At the Harvey Arms.

The decision to hold a Race Night to raise funds for the Finningley Village Fun Day proved to be a winner. All the worries about whether we would get any support vanished into the blue as the room rapidly filled with chatting people, some a little nervous having never been to such an event before, but all obviously out to enjoy themselves.

The members of the Finningley Village Community Group still glanced nervously at each other. Was everything in place , had they forgotten anything?

Then we were off!

Eric kept everything moving well, the punters placed their bets, shouted encouragement to their chosen horse and cheered or groaned as the winner passed the post.

The Pie and peas served by Eric, Gordon and their staff were consumed and enjoyed and the punters gathered at the start line for the second set of races on the card.

All in all the evening proved a great success.

Our thanks must go out to the generous supporters, the many many people who supported us by sponsoring races, owners, and jockeys. All those who provided us with prizes for our raffle or who simply said I can't attend but take this as a donation. They are too many to mention here but we did mention them all on our Race programme.

Our thanks must also to the Harvey Arms who gave us the venue and their time, and all members of the community group who worked and supported the event throughout. Last, but certainly not least, we must thank all those people who came along and gave so willingly, who cheered the evening on to be such a success and without whom the event would have been a nonstarter. Congratulations to you all! The exact figure is not in yet, but the sum you helped raise will go along way to meet the needs and expenses of the Fun Day Thank you.

St Georges Day Parade Attended by over 1000 scouting groups in the region.

Beavers, Cubs and Scouts from The 58th Doncaster Scout group, based in Cantley, took part in the St Georges Day Parade on Sunday 25th April. Watching our young people, proudly marching through Doncaster town centre to the sound of the band playing was fantastic.

The groups all filed into church followed by the procession of Colours. The Minister welcomed everyone to celebrate membership of the worldwide fellowship of Scouts and to give thanks to God followed by prayers, readings and hymns.

Everyone left St Georges Minster singing the National Anthem, however, there was now a monsoon to welcome everyone but it didn‘t dampen our spirits! As we arrived back at base, everyone from parents, cub leaders, beavers, cubs and scouts were absolutely soaked through. Here‘s to another successful St Georges Day Parade and let‘s hope the sun shines ‗all day‘ next year.

If anyone is interested in scouting log on to www.58thscouts.org.uk for more details.

Flowers for Someone Special Do you know someone special?

Someone who has gone the extra mile for others or someone who just deserves something nice. ‗We would like to request a 'Bouquet for Someone Special' for Edna Dimbleby of Auckley. Edna is a lovely lady who is very kind and thoughtful of others, she is always cheerful and helpful. Edna has been battling with various eye problems for several years, and is having regular injections into her eye to save her sight. Despite this she never complains and continues to be involved in things, always putting others first. She really deserves a beautiful scented bouquet to show her how much she is appreciated. In addition to this, on 18 June Edna and her husband Ron celebrate their 61st wedding anniversary. We wish them both many more happy years together. From all your friends.‘

The Arrow and Petalsflorist would love to send someone special a bouquet. Also, listen to Trax FM to hear ‗Someone Special‘ in the morning!

Jean’s special surprise!

FINNINGLEY PARISH COUNCIL Website www.finningleyvillage.co.uk

Newsletter June 2010 Airport There have been more flights in and out of the airport of late, one of the reasons being that Easyjet now fly from there to several destinations. Even with the change of regulations to allow QC4 aircraft to fly at night, the Parish Council has not been made aware of any serious increase in night-time noise.

Police Due to the increased use of the airport, the police officers stationed there can no longer be utilised to patrol the surrounding villages. The area from Old Cantley village, Branton, Auckley (including the former „camp‟), Blaxton and through to Finningley village will now come under one PC based at Rossington, with the assistance of one PCSO. The PACT (Police and Community Together) meetings which have been held in the various villages covered by the police at the airport and changed location each month, are henceforth to be held at Bawtry and Tickhill only; the name is also being changed to “Have Your Say”. Why the villages have been cut out we have not been informed, but protests will be made.

Playing Field Shelter Petitions were presented to Doncaster MBC planning department against the installation of a shelter on the playing field. A further petition, signed by users of the field, was presented in favour of having it. Both views were amongst the various factors taken into account when the planning department decided to approve the installation of the shelter. It should be noted that this facility is intended for all users of the field, not just a particular age group or type of user.

Auckley Parish Council Newsletter June 2010 Resignation of Parish Councillor

Council is sorry to lose Mrs. Lynn Allwood who has resigned from the Council due to work and family commitments. Mrs. Allwood has played an active and enthusiastic part in the affairs of the Council, particularly in organising the 2009 Senior Citizens‘ outing. .

As a result of the resignation, a vacancy on the Council now exists and a new member will be coopted onto the Council at the next meeting on 9th June 2010.

Any eligible person wishing to be considered for the post should write to the Clerk, the application to be received no later than 12 noon on Tuesday 8th June 2010. An eligible person is one who resides in or within 3 miles of the Auckley Parish, or has his/her main place of work within the Parish.

Proposed New Play Equipment The ‗Play Builder‘ Scheme is a government-funded project, implemented by Doncaster Council staff, to provide play equipment in a natural setting. Auckley‘s Riverside Park is one of several areas in the Doncaster Borough to benefit from the scheme. DMBC recently carried out a consultation exercise at Riverside Park and in the local schools to ascertain what play equipment children wished to see on Riverside Park.

Additional recreational items will be provided from Section 106 monies and Parish Council funds.

Hopefully the scheme will be implemented by the end of the current financial year.

Dog Fouling The majority of dog owners clean up after their dogs. However, there are a few irresponsible owners who allow their dogs to foul pavements and recreation grounds, and Council would remind these owners that allowing dogs to foul without cleaning up after them is an offence and they are liable to be fined. Dog waste bins are sited at various sites in the Parish, i.e. at Riverside Park, the Spey Drive play area and the Hayfield Estate, and it would be appreciated if these bins could be used.

Auckley Show The Village Show will be held on Saturday, 14th August at the Riverside Park. Council has agreed to make a financial contribution towards this event, and wishes the Show Committee every success on the day.

New Parish Councillor A warm welcome is extended to Mrs. Julia Staniforth, a resident of Auckley, who has recently been co-opted onto the Council following the resignation of Mr. Peter Cockett.

If any residents are interested in seeking a review please contact the Julia Staniforth (Clerk to the Council) to obtain further information.

Community Developments A new footpath has been provided leading from the rear of the new Community building to the play area in order to improve access particularly in wet weather. A new notice board has been provided for Warning Tongue Lane so residents in the area can now access all the parish council information.

Dog Fouling – Please Remember this is an Offence!

Dog fouling is continuing to increase in spite of previous requests, creating a serious health and safety risk. All dog owners are asked to ensure that when dogs foul any public area it is collected, wrapped and disposed of in the dog litter bins provided.

Thank you to the dog walkers along Kilham Lane for using the new dog litter bin provided.

News from Branton St Wilfrid’s C.E. Primary School The Summer term has been busy as usual with many activities and events to enrich our curriculum.

Class 5 Visit Austerfield Field Study Centre Class 5 visited Austerfield Field Study Centre as part of their geography and science studies. In the morning they learned about the water cycle and the importance of saving water on our planet. They played a water cycle game which involved wearing hats with labels depicting various stages of the cycle. Pretend water had to be delivered to the next person in the cycle and there was much hilarity when Queen Victoria became part of the cycle and visited her royal lavatory! Next Class 5 went to the quarry to create their own river system using containers of rain water which were poured downhill. They watched the water travel over the waterfall, through the gorge, into the valley then to the flood plain and onwards to the sea. After a break for lunch and the important visit to the shop, Class 5 travelled to the River Idle where they measured the rate of flow of the river using dog biscuits as „Pooh sticks.‟ (The fish later enjoyed a tasty snack). The day was expertly led by the Austerfield staff and the children thoroughly enjoyed their „hands on‟ learning experiences.

“Cinder – Ellie goes to the Hoe-Down” Class 6 Drama Group presented their production of “Cinder – Ellie goes to the Hoe-Down” to the whole school and invited adults. The story is the traditional tale of Cinderella but with a Wild West twist. The children told the story through a combination of drama, singing and dance. We had Ugly Sisters Cactus and Grizzly with attitude, cowboys, dancing girls, a very smelly „Fairy Godmother‟, and French and Red Indian narrators.

A twist at the end involving a spell cast on Cinder-Ellie‟s boot meant Yippers, the Buttons character, was the one who won Cinder-Ellie‟s hand in marriage. The children performed brilliantly and looked fantastic in their home created costumes. Well done Drama Group!

Class R Visit to the Yorkshire Wildlife Park Class R thoroughly enjoyed their recent visit to the Yorkshire Wildlife Park. As well as touring the park, Class R had an animal handling session-which involved stroking a snake and a bearded dragon. Class R persuaded Mrs Crayton to be brave and take part, so I have now stroked a snake! The children showed great interest in the animals and we were very impressed with the children‟s knowledge as they looked around.

Children even got the opportunity to feed the animals by hand (and yes, our anti-bacterial hand wash was at the ready afterwards!!)

Class 4 Archery Day As part of their project on Castles Class 4 had some surprise visitors to school, as you can read in Scarlett‟s writing below:

When I walked into the classroom I got a big surprise as everyone was staring at two medieval people standing in our classroom, one was dressed like an archer and one like a knight. They started telling us about medieval weapons, and even showed us some. Later I got to wear the knight‟s armour! It‟s really heavy but I‟m happy I tried it on. After lunch we did some archery and everyone enjoyed it. It was a brilliant day at school. Scarlett, Class 4 Following the interest shown by the children during the Archery day, we have now started a new Archery Club after school, to add to our list of extra-curricular activities.

Thank You to the PTA! Our Parent Teacher Association work very hard to plan a varied range of enjoyable activities throughout the school year. These raise additional funds which are spent on the children. The PTA have recently purchased a play house and a pirate ship for the Class R and 1 play area and the children are really enjoying using them as part of their creative play.

News from Hayfield Lane Primary School Our children have had a very busy and rewarding month with exciting and educational visits out of school, the Young Writers competition and several fun and informative visitors in school.

Years 1 & 2 visit to Conisborough Castle Years 1 & 2 enjoyed an historical visit to Conisborough Castle and church as part of their Take One Picture project. They were given a tour around the castle and walked to the church. Some of the children were surprised to learn that the castle is over 800 years old (nearly as old as the teachers!!) In the afternoon they had a great time dressing up in medieval clothing and testing out old fashioned forms of punishment, although the teachers were not brave enough to try out the stocks.

Year 1 Pedestrian Training The Road Safety Education Unit joined several parents and children from year 1 to highlight pedestrian road safety. The children donned high visibility jackets and headed out on to Hayfield Lane. They were shown how to cross the roads correctly, finding safe places and looking both ways.

They were then taken to the pedestrian crossing where they learned about the ‗Red Man‘ and the ‗Green Man‘. When they returned to school, they excitedly shared what they had learned with the rest of the school.

Year 4 Cycle training As many of our children now use their bikes to cycle to school, we invited Bike It Tom to school to give some of our pupils valuable cycle training. They were taught braking skills, the importance of wearing a helmet and how to ride a bike safely and considerately on the roads. They were also given some tips on how to look after their bikes.

Crucial Crew A fantastic time was had by our year 6 children when they visited Magna. They took part in the Crucial Crew workshop which is run by the South Yorkshire Police. During the afternoon they were involved in role play where they had to act out scenarios dealing with anti social behaviour, drugs awareness and bullying. The children felt that they had gained valuable skills and found it very interesting and lots of fun to work with the police.

Young Writers competition winners We were very proud to learn this week that several of our Key Stage 2 pupils have been successful in the Young Writers latest Creative Writing competition, fighting off fierce competition from hundreds of schools in the Yorkshire region. The children were asked to create a mini saga but could use no more that 50 words. We had some wonderful stories from all of our children and they really let their imaginations run wild. The winners were given a certificate and their work will go in to a book entitled Tiny Treasures Tales from Yorkshire, a copy of which will be kept at the British library as well as other libraries across the UK. Well done to our budding novelists.

Local History and Country Notes Compiled by Brian Tansey F.R.G.S. 34 Springwood Close, Branton, Doncaster, DN3 3UD Tel: 01302 534959 E Mail: briantansey@tiscali.co.uk Cantley and Branton Cricket Club Update I have received several tit bits of information about the Club. In the last Issue of the Arrow I printed a letter from Don Fox about it. According to Ronald Nutall of Branton he remembers being asked to play occasionally as a young man of about 15 (about 1938) and that the Cricket Ground in fact moved several times. He remembers it was initially in the field to the right as you now cross the M18 Motorway Bridge heading to Doncaster, which in fact would have placed it directly behind the former Primary School, where there is now a large new house on the traffic island corner, as you turn to go into Old Cantley.

In later years it moved to a site about where the McCauley Catholic Senior School main building is now. It later moved to another possible un-recollected site, and finally ended up opposite St Wilfrids Church where Don Fox remembered it being. We still have no information about when it was formed or closed.

Ronald remembers some of the 1938 period team members as being Gerry Walls, Bill Tatham, Tom Collins, Artie Binns, Frank Hamilton, Ken Bullock, Ted Badger and Frank Badger.

Since we now know the names of some team members does anyone have any old photos of the team of any period that we could copy. I still have to get back to a couple of people who have more information.

The Workings of an Old Water Mill In an earlier issue of the Arrow I discussed the strong possibility of there having been a Water Mill on the west bank of the River Torne south of the Auckley Bridge, I have just come across this image of a 17-18th Century Water Mill, could our Mill have looked like this?

Doncaster Advanced Motorists Five tips to prepare your car for summer Dear readers, After a long winter of wear and tear through snow, salt and potholes - and volcanic dust - your car will be in need of a little TLC. Being prepared for the summer and making checks now can save you a lot of money in the long run.

Try to deal with any minor problems and repairs as they happen, as they can become very expensive if left to build up over time.

Here are five tips to prepare your car: rusting if left on the bodywork. If possible take your car to a car wash that specializes in under-car cleaning to get rid of every trace. your car‟s pollen filter annually is a vital investment. Keeping your air-con well maintained will help, too.

-con will help your car smell better. If it smells stale when you turn the heating on, it could well be a sign that mould is building up in your condenser. headlamps when you stop for fuel is also important as windscreen wipers won‟t get rid of all the fly debris. leave marks on the windscreen, so remember to replace them regularly. After the dust that has fallen from the volcanic ash cloud, it is particularly important that you clean them regularly to avoid damaging your windscreen.

Certain checks should be made regardless of the season: Anti-freeze contains corrosion inhibitors so you should keep your car topped up with the right mixture all year round; going without could lead to expensive internal damage such as a blown head gasket.

If you are interested in further information regarding the courses that we offer, you‘ll be able to find this information on the Institute of Advanced Motorists website at www.iam.org.uk or Tel: 020 8996 9600

Exterminate…

Exterminate…

Saturday nights in the 70‘s were usually spent hiding behind the settee as the Daleks did battle with Dr Who. Sadly the series came to an end, so imagine my delight when a new Dr Who came to our screens years later. Now my own children could hide behind the settee…they didn‘t! I also had a new favourite Dr, move over Tom Baker, David Tenant is in town! Then disaster struck, his time had come to an end Revd, Neil Redeyoff with his family and I was genuinely sad. What would the new actor be like?

Why did it have to change? It won‘t be like it used to be! I was angry, and determined not to turn on the TV and watch the new Dr! Thinking about the time lord, I also began thinking about the Lord of Time – God. There was a song in the 60‘s by the Byrds with the line ―Turn, turn, turn‖ The words taken exactly from Ecclesiastes 3 “There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven: a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot, a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to tear down and a time to build, a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance, a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them, a time to embrace and a time to refrain, a time to search and a time to give up, a time to keep and a time to throw away, a time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and a time to speak, a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace.”

Could there really be a time for war, to kill, to hate? Surely our life is meant to be merciful, compassionate and filled with love; these things do not make sense. How about a time to break down or weep? Shouldn‘t we be rejoicing and building up? But, there are also inappropriate times for laughter and love. I think human beings often chosen the wrong times and reasons for many of these things. We fight over the wrong causes, we love the wrong things, we keep things that are corrupt and reject that which is eternal. We break down relationships and weep over things with Arms not long enough? no real value. We embrace that which will harm us and cast away that which will make us better.

The chorus of the Byrds‘ song went, “To everything (turn, turn, turn) There is a season (turn, turn, turn) And a time for every purpose, under heaven.‖ „Turn‟ is for me the key word. I believe we need turn back to God, learn how to discern His will and way so that we will live as God would have us to live, experiencing things Number plates blurred? at the appropriate time and in the appropriate place.

He does have a season and a purpose for everything, and He will guide us in the right way.

Blessings
