Welcome to the October issue of the

Sprotbrough Arrow As the nights draw closer, we find ourselves ready to embrace the changing season. Autumn is a time of transformation – the trees burst into vibrant shades, and the excitement of events like Halloween and Autumn fayres fill our calendars.

However, as we say farewell to what has been a somewhat fleeting summer, I can't help but notice a slight irritation with the early arrival of certain seasonal treats. Is it just me, or does seeing mince pies on sale in late August feel a bit premature? Don't get me wrong, I love a good mince pie – in fact, I have a bit of a crush on them! But seeing them lining the shelves so early feels like skipping over autumn entirely.

As the leaves turn golden and we cozy up with warm drinks, let's take a moment to appreciate the unique charm of autumn. There’s plenty of time for winter festivities – so for now, let's savor the pumpkins, bonfires, and the special glow of this season.

The November issue deadline for adverts and content is Monday 14th October. The Arrow will be delivered by 1st November.

Sprotbrough Theatre Group Do you like going to live theatre but don’t relish the thought of expensive tickets, driving and the expensive parking fees on top of the price of a theatre ticket? Well , have you considered joining Sprotbrough Theatre Group as a means of reducing these costs?

We have a current membership of ninety people but always welcome new members. The membership cost to join this year is £20. This helps to subsidise trips and provides you with access to a regular newsletter, concessionary theatre tickets across the region and coach transport to and from the theatre.

Last year we enjoyed 20 visits of various genres (drama, musicals, ballet, comedy all on tour from the West End Theatres) to York, Leeds, Bradford, Sheffield and Doncaster.

We conclude the year in March with an AGM with food and entertainment . We welcome new members with the opportunity to meet new people who share similar interests. Please contact Janet on 07985668177 for further information if you are interested.

RICHMOND HILL PRIMARY ACADEMY September Start We are back! A new exciting year begins at Richmond Hill and already the children are exploring our new Forest School. Year 2 are already building fabulous skills of team work, communication and risk taking.

Uplifting Ukuleles Our Year 5 children have been getting to grips with learning a new instrument this year with Mrs Patterson. They are certainly enjoying learning the ukulele.

Remarkable Rock Heroes Watch out there are Rock Heroes about! What a great launch for our Year 4 times table rock stars event. Already they are flying up the leader boards.
