Welcome to Issue 32...

Autumn is here! I really love this time of the year and although it can be a bit disheartening that it signals the end of summer and dark nights it really is a magical season with lots of fun things to do and of course we bring you the best that our great County has to offer.

Autumn brings us colourful leaves on the trees, and then on the floor for the kids to play in! Conkers to hunt for, October half term, Halloween, Bonfire Night and it also means that Christmas is just around the corner! Comfort food just has to be eaten and even the television is better.

A big thank to those of you who voted for Nadine Peatfield, the Managing Director of Lots for Tots Ltd, who was shortlisted for the Mum and Working Franchisor of the Year award!

Hundreds applied and Nadine made it to the finals in London.

We have added a list of where to find Santa in Derby this year, please see pages 28-29.

For those of you with older children (6-16 years) a new website has launched in Derby called Derby Days Out. The website is: www.derbydaysout.co.uk

Mum and Working Awards Lots for Tots placed 5th in Franchisor of the year category at London awards After reaching the final 8 out of hundreds of entries and thousands of public votes, Lots for Tots Franchisor Nadine came in 5th place for Franchisor of the Year.

The awards programme celebrates the champions of flexible working – showcasing those businesses, associations and individuals (mums and dads!) who are demonstrating how a fulfilling career can be balanced with modern-day family life.

The awards, held in the business hub of London on 22nd September, were judged by both public vote & panel including Annabel Karmel MBE and Caprice

Bourret (above). The event was attended by over 200 inspiring, like minded business women; and a few Dads too!

Nadine said “I’m so proud to be a finalist.

We are a small franchise, full of passion for what we do. I think that showed in the public voting stages and is what ultimately got us to the final alongside some really big national franchises”.

We would like to send our warmest congratulations to the winner of the category, Baby Sensory!

primary

Laying the foundations for a bright future Derby High is pleased to announce that from January 2016 our Pre-School and Infant pupils will be housed in a brand new, purpose built infant school building on the Primary School site.

Once completed, the new building will be two storeys high with eight classrooms, a hall and additional outside learning space.

Building work is currently underway with the children taking a huge interest in watching their new school emerge. Keen to get involved, the children have taken part in a ‘name the digger’ competition and each form at Derby High Primary has planted a hard hat hanging basket to brighten up the building site.

Michelle Hannaford, Head of Derby High Primary, is very much looking forward to this development for the school. “We are very excited to have the opportunity to create a modern, spacious environment for the boys and girls and to enhance our provision for the primary-aged children at Derby High.”

Derby High Primary welcomes girls and boys aged 3-11.

For information about joining the school please visit the Derby High website: www.derbyhigh.co.uk email admissions@derbyhigh.derby.sch.uk or phone admissions on: 01332 514267.
