LOWTON WI Our speaker this month was Ian Dale, son of one of our members. Ian is a retired police officer who worked for GMP for many years as a dog handler, we also welcomed retired police dog Milo, during his working life, Milo was trained to seek out explosives and along with Ian and was involved in the Manchester arena bombing investigation.

Ian gave a very interesting insight into the training of the dogs, how various breeds are used for different roles and the bond and trust that develops between dog and handler. It was lovely that Ian brought along his awards and certificates that he and his trusted friends of which there had been a few over the years, had been presented with over a 29 year career.

Our next meeting on the 3rd September will be celebrating Lowton WI’s 58th birthday, our speaker on this special evening will be John Stirling with a talk titled ‘Born in a Hamper’.

For anyone interested in joining and would like to arrange a visit, please phone Val Barrow on 07419335330.

All visitors will be made very welcome.

Our meetings are held on the first Thursday of the month at 7.15pm in Lowton Social Club on Newton Road.

Kumon Lowton Study Centre From its inception more than 60 years ago, the Kumon Method of Learning has been performed using carefully designed paper worksheets and a pencil, allowing students across the world to develop their reasoning and independent study skills, page by page.

These worksheets have gradually evolved from those that were originally created by maths teacher and parent, Toru Kumon who specifically designed them to help develop his son’s confidence and ability. He incorporated small-step, independent learning and daily practice into his method which has remained this way, until today.

After many years of delivering academic success using paper worksheets, Kumon has recently announced that through a new innovation, the Kumon worksheets are now available in a digital format via the new KUMON App, making Kumon’s tried and tested worksheets even more accessible and convenient for students to study using their tablet and stylus.

Having the ability to access their allocated work on a tablet via KUMON App means they’re able to easily take work with them and receive their next sets of worksheets from their Instructor, instantaneously.

They can use KUMON App in class just as they can with paper worksheets, and when they’re completing their daily study outside of the centre, they’re always in touch with their Instructor who can mark, assess and adjust their work accordingly.

Elizabeth Forrester, Kumon Instructor of the Lowton study centre, said; “I believe that the Kumon programmes are the right choice for any child of any ability. It allows children to take control of their own learning and development under the guidance of an Instructor. They flourish not only in their education but in their interpersonal skills, confidence and self-motivation. It is wonderful to help and see a child grow, have pride in their work and light up when reaching their goals and their potential.

I am thrilled to announce that the new KUMON App is here! I am so pleased to be able to offer a new way of learning. Our digital students are fully engaged in their work. They’re able to track their daily progress which I have found makes for faster and steadier progress towards their long-term goals” The Kumon Lowton Study centre is based at St Mary's Church Community Hall, Newton Road, Lowton and is offering Free Registration to all new students who join KUMON App study until 30 September 2022.

Book an enrolment meeting for your child at www.kumon.co.uk/lowton or call Elizabeth Forrester, on 07585 667518 to make the most of the KUMON App Free Registration offer.
