SIXERDO YOU REMEMBER?

DO YOU REMEMBER?

ere’s another slice of life from the old days courtesy of our old friend, Barry Couldwell.

The mode of transport and rustic scene suggests a longvanished era so can any Sixer readers tell us where and when this photograph was taken?

Last month’s Do You Remember excited many Sixer readers including Terry Robinson who recognised the view of OUGHTY BRIDGE station in Oughtibridge.

“When this picture was taken, who would have imagined that this bridge would see the cyclists in the 2014 Tour de France pass over it as they climbed the (now famous) Cote d'Oughtibridge, or indeed be a viewpoint for thousands of spectators watching the race,” says Terry.

“When looking at the picture, the building on the extreme right with the fancy finial, level with the row of

railway employees, was the original station building. The remains of this has now been incorporated into a modern bungalow.

“The canopied station building beyond the people replaced the original station, but has now been demolished and no trace remains... there are still traces of the platforms, which can best be seen from the bridge, but great care is needed as the road narrows at this point.”

Another Sixer reader, John Quick, informs us that the photo was taken in around 1905.

PROMOTIONUNITED HOMES

Prices that won’t be beaten and highest standards of friendly, personal service make United Homes the obvious choice when it comes to property. e’ve got a secret to tell you; selling or letting your home doesn’t have to cost a fortune. Yes you can pay thousands of pounds in fees with agents but, if you choose United Homes to market or let your property, it needn’t be as expensive as you think.

As a local, independent estate agency, they’re able to offer competitive fees and will price match any other agent. They

W

know it’s personal touches that make all the difference and their style of customer service has earned them a well-deserved reputation as a friendly, honest and trustworthy company.

You can also rest assured that your call will never be answered by a call centre and you will always speak to one of the friendly staff. Read on to find out more about each member of the team.

Dean and Kerry Kenyon – Directors With more than 25 years’ experience in the property industry, former financial advisor Dean has an outstanding knowledge of the property market along with his wife Kerry, who joined the company four years ago.

Living in Oughtibridge for the past 15 years, Dean and Kerry have an excellent understanding of the property market in the surrounding areas.

Both Dean and Kerry pride themselves in maintaining excellent client relations and are proud to have been providing services to many customers for a number of years.

Jake Kenyon Dean and Kerry’s son Jake has just returned from a gap year in New Zealand and is currently learning the ropes from his dad. He is gaining experience in all aspects of the business ready to expand United Homes across South Yorkshire. He is also taking his CeMAP training and hoping to add an in-house mortgage advisor to the business.

With such a winning personality and passion to succeed, her clients quickly become friends. Catherine has a personal understanding of both the sales and lettings market as a homeowner and landlord herself, so she knows first-hand how important excellent customer service is.

Eden Beever – Lettings Manager It is said that what Eden doesn’t know about United Homes’ portfolio of rental properties isn’t worth knowing. She started as an apprentice three years ago and in time has built up an outstanding knowledge of every landlord and property on their books.

As an Oughtibridge resident, she knows the area both personally and professionally and is a real asset to the team.

PROMOTIONMORFITT SMITH

If you are looking to buy a house or find a rental property, fast-growing estate agency Morfitt Smith can help. s the dedicated runners were tackling Ecclesall Road on the Sheffield Half Marathon’s new route last month, another newcomer to Banner Cross was also making its

A

mark.

Independent estate agent Morfitt Smith, established in Hillsborough in the summer of 2013, opened its brand new office on that same Sunday and is already drawing interest from homeowners and landlords alike.

Because, as well as a superb sales service for which the business has become renowned all over the city, the new branch also offers a specialist lettings service.

As the rental market continues to grow, there is a huge demand for landlords and hot rental properties are not hanging around for long. But it’s not just existing landlords who can benefit. If you are considering letting a property for investment or as an alternative to selling, Morfitt Smith can offer excellent advice on how to become a successful landlord.

The new branch isn’t the only exciting news that Morfitt Smith has announced this year. They were also proud to have been shortlisted in the Best Estate Agent in Yorkshire and Humberside category at the prestigious 2015 ESTAs (Estate

and Letting Agent Awards), held at Hilton Park Lane in London.

A highly commendable feat for a business established less than two years ago. But when you consider all that John Morfitt and his talented team have done since first launching on Middlewood Road, it’s clear to see why they have attracted such praise.

Priding themselves on their personal touch, they are determined to find the right client for the right home, rather than simply selling or letting a property without a second thought. They know that choosing an estate agent to sell or rent your home is a big decision and go out of their way to ensure the entire process is as stress-free as possible.

Combining traditional old-fashioned values with modern practices, they offer the best service possible. Their comprehensive website and active social media accounts are excellent resources for sellers, buyers and landlords. Vendors have their own login details and online personal file so they can keep track of developments in their sale. And buyers can create a wish list, which can be changed at any time, putting them in control of the house buying experience.

Morfitt Smith is one local company on the up and is looking forward to a bright future. To see how they can help you, and for more information on selling or letting your property, don’t hesitate to contact them via the details below.

The Strines Inn Despite being within Sheffield’s border, The Strines Inn could be a world away. The 13th century inn overlooks the Strines reservoir and remains a classic country pub.

In the height of summer, the Inn attracts hundreds of visitors on a daily basis. The glorious sunshine and stunning views perfectly compliment the excellent food and drink available.

The inn has gained and maintained a well-deserved reputation for good quality, traditional, English homemade food, much of which is made on the premises and cooked to order.

The Malin Bridge Inn has been in the same family for the last 37 years and is still the hub of the community. There’s always something happening here including: pool night Mondays, Can You Jam Wednesdays, quiz night Thursdays and curry and Mexican nights.

There is also a fabulous patio area where you can enjoy a drink in the sun, and kids can play table tennis, Connect Four, Jenga and much more.

They are hosting their first cocktail Caribbean beach party on Saturday 11 July, which will include steel drums, raffles and a barbeque.

The Royal Oak

The Peacock The Peacock Inn at Stannington provides quality food, drink and exceptional surroundings.

Landlord Simon Mullen and his team have seen old customers return and new ones discover what exactly The Peacock Inn has to offer.

Known for his skills in the kitchen, Simon has devised a number of menus, with something for everyone. “Whether you want a classic pub dish from the main menu or a sandwich from the range of snacks and lite bites, you won’t leave hungry.”

Booking is advisable at all times but especially when The Peacock Inn’s Sunday lunch is being served – offering five quality meats and a vegetarian option, a large selection of fresh vegetables, potatoes, Yorkshire pudding, stuffing and delicious gravy.

The Peacock has recently expanded – now offering a spacious, well-lit, modern extension which will hold 30-40 people; an ideal function room for special occasions.

If the grass is lacklustre, perhaps with unsightly bare patches or clumps of weeds or moss, then the chances are your lawn needs some TLC.

SIXERMUSIC

4 Girls 4 Harps

MAESTRO CLASS How does a village music festival attract some of the best classical performers in the world?

or one week each summer, a quaint North Sheffield village transforms into a bustling hub for classical musicians, composers, singers and the hundreds of people who come to see them perform.

The reason? Bradfield Festival of Music, the history of which can be traced back to the early 19th century. Since its modern revival in 1998, the week-long event has welcomed thousands of classical music enthusiasts Words: Stephanie Burns from across the country.

From Saturday 20 to Saturday 27 June this year, the medieval Grade I listed Parish Church of St Nicholas in High Bradfield will once again provide a spectacular setting for the festival, with world-class acts making the most of Ella the 900-year old Taylor building’s excellent acoustics.

“It’s a unique setting with a unique sound,” says festival secretary

36 SIXER MAGAZINE

F

Keith Hoyland. “We don’t use any amplification so all you hear is pure sound with the acoustics of the church. Our president Julian Lloyd Webber always says there’s nowhere better on earth to play when the church is full.”

For the past two years, an impressive 90 per cent turnout has ensured the 300-strong audiences at each of the seven concerts enjoy this optimum sound. The intimate venue, where artists play just a couple of feet from the front row, enhances the atmosphere even further and people often comment on how wonderful it is to experience the performances away from vast concert halls. It’s little wonder, then, that the festival continues to go from strength to strength.

What began as a platform for local and amateur musicians has grown greatly in confidence and now features the industry’s internationally acclaimed stars. Having established good contacts with renowned music agents, and pitching years in advance for top performers, the festival organisers are able to secure some truly outstanding acts.

“Sometimes people don’t believe that we get the artists we get – especially Classic Brit Awards winners who we have year by year,” says Keith proudly. “Julian works as a talent spotter and gives me an early heads-up about people who are likely to be coming into the limelight – those who are at the start of their career and making leaps and bounds into the classical music industry.

“We’ve already booked most of our artists for 2016 and 2017 and my favourite part of the festival is trying to introduce new artists to Sheffield as many have never been to the area before.”

It’s this kind of thinking that sees artists such as Romanian/Nigerian pianist Rebeca Omordia (Justin’s

@SixerRMC

036 - 037 Sixer May15_Layout 1 27/04/2015 14:53 Page 2

recommendation for this year) grace the programme. For the first time, she’ll be performing alongside the 2013 Classical Brit Awards Breakthrough Artist of the Year, Australian saxophonist Amy Dickson, in a partnership created especially for the Bradfield festival.

While the organisers aim to introduce new genres of music to entice even more people to the festival, some acts are so popular there is demand for them to return. As a result, 4Girls 4Harps, who played the festival in 2012, will take to the stage once again alongside Sheffield soprano Ella Taylor this year.

Everyone who attends the festival receives a complimentary 20page brochure that details all events taking place through the week. It also includes a sneaky peak of what to expect next year so regular attendees can start discussing their favourites before the current event has even finished.

“Our regular followers give us hints about who they want to see and we always try to follow up these recommendations,” says Keith. “We’ve developed our own little festival community over the years and people from all over the UK come for a week’s holiday so we have to put on a good show.”

To maintain the high standards, great teamwork is essential in the smooth running and success of the festival and they’re always looking for new volunteers to come on board. From a couple of hours helping out to becoming fully involved with the organisation committee or even assisting Keith with PR and marketing, if you’re interested in being part of this year’s event – or would like to get involved next year – contact Keith on the details below.

If you are looking for colourful new tiles to brighten up your kitchen or bathroom this spring, take a trip to The Tile Store. s summer approaches, many homeowners turn their attention towards their gardens. But just because the sun is shining, doesn’t mean the indoors should be neglected.

But when it comes to your bathroom and kitchen tiles, you needn’t worry about price, as The Tile Store in Sheffield has that covered with huge savings and discounts in their current sale, which offers up to 30 per cent off.

The business, located on Rutland Way at the bottom of Rutland Road opposite Wickes, recently expanded its showroom by 300 sq ft.

SIXERINTERVIEW

IN THE HOT SEAT Amy Garcia speaks to Stephanie Burns about life on the Look North sofa – and how balancing a demanding television career with a young family is no easy task. atched by 2.5million people each week, BBC Look North is held dearly in the hearts of Yorkshire folk. So finding a new presenter to reignite the on-air chemistry that Harry Gration shared with his former sofa buddy, Christa Ackroyd, was undoubtedly a tall order.

But 33-year-old Amy Garcia – who took up the role in November 2013 – has a winning combination of warmth and genuine charm that has been gladly welcomed each evening by the show’s loyal viewers.

Having grown up in Wakefield and studied media and performing arts at the local college, Amy embarked on a sixmonth stint as a cruise ship singer before, at the age of 19, venturing into children’s television. Staying in the genre for three years, she worked for S Club TV, CBBC and the Disney Channel and then side-stepped into light entertainment shows on Sky. At 27, she decided to travel in a different direction and enrolled at Goldsmiths College in London for an MA in journalism – a qualification that opened up a new world of opportunity.

Three years after making her first appearance on the Look North sofa – presenting different bulletins as well as working behind the scenes on production – she secured a presenter/reporter role on BBC South Today and presented BBC3’s 60 Seconds news bulletins. In early 2013, she left to take up maternity leave and it wasn’t until the call came from Look North that she was propelled back into the spotlight – and back up to her beloved home county.

Amy met her husband Tim, a Yorkshire-born songwriter and producer, 12 years ago in Brown’s bar, Leeds. But it wasn’t until the following year, when they bumped into each other in a music studio in London, that they really hit it off. The rest, as they say, is history.

Their two-year-old daughter now kisses the screen when she sees her mum on television and even shouts out the names of Harry and weatherman Paul Hudson.

So how does the glamorous presenter – who is fast becoming a Yorkshire sweetheart – juggle the pressure of such a demanding role with the reality of early motherhood? And just how did she survive the gruelling Tour de France Yorkshire Grand Depart route on the back of that tandem?

I caught up with Amy during a late-evening shift to find out.

W

You’ve been on the sofa for over a year now, how are you finding it so far?

I am absolutely loving it and feel like I’m in a bit of a rhythm now. The first six months were just terrifying and then I had the tandem bike ride thrown into the mix. But it’s a really lovely team and there is such a variation every day.

74 SIXER MAGAZINE

It is a really big role to take on, were you nervous?

Yes, it was a huge pressure. There were big shoes to fill and Look North has a massive audience, but I tried to push that to the back of my mind otherwise I’d have been a nervous wreck every night.

How are you balancing a career and motherhood?

I’m always juggling lots of balls but I’m lucky that I have very supportive parents and in-laws. Without them, I don’t think I’d be able to do the job. I also have a very supportive husband and, between the three of them, they look after Mabel while I’m at work and they do a great job. Mabel had just turned eight months when I came back to work so I felt like it was a little bit early to be leaving her. It was a bit of a shock to the system as we had six weeks to find a house and get everything sorted. As any new mum will know, your mind just goes to mush when you have children – for at least the first year – so it was terrifying not just going back into work and easing myself into it gently like most do, but being on live TV four nights a week.

Was there anything that surprised you about the job?

There are lots of added extras. I get invited to open fairs and do talks at schools, which is really nice. Sometimes it’s really hard to say no to things so you find yourself running around ragged doing everything. But it’s really lovely to be part of the community and see what amazing work some people do.

What is your favourite part of the job?

Meeting different people is the best part and the variation is great as it’s just different all the time.

Have there ever been any on-air disasters or blips that have got your heart pumping?

Oh all the time – gosh there are so many mishaps that I probably couldn’t name them all but they play out on screen I think. You’ve got to be open and honest about it and I think the audience thanks you for that rather than trying to pretend nothing’s happened.

Do you have any unfulfilled career ambitions?

I’d quite like to travel a bit more with work. Harry went to Afghanistan recently and that was such an amazing trip; I was quite envious.

Is there anyone who has particularly inspired you?

Harry definitely has because he’s a bit of an institution. He’s got a real knack for doing both serious and soft news. I think Sophie

Amy and Harry Gration (right) took on the Tour de France tandem challenge for Sport Relief

Raworth’s great too. She used to work for Look North and she’s someone that I saw as a bit of a role model.

What do you like most about being back in Yorkshire after a ten-year spell down south?

You know where you are with Yorkshire folk; they don’t dilly dally around the subject. What you see is what you get and I love that because that’s what I’m all about as well.

You must be recognised fairly often. How are you greeted by the Yorkshire folk?

Well to begin with it was ‘ooh didn’t you do well on that tandem’ or ‘I hope you’re looking after Harry’. When I’m out and about, I’m with my little girl so I look very different as I’m in my mum get-up. A few people have said ‘do you know you look just like Amy Garcia off Look North, has anyone ever told you that before?’ I’m like ‘erm a few people, yes!’

How did you prepare for the Tour de France challenge?

We did about six weeks’ training together and on our own. But I don’t think anything can really train you for that amount of cycling so it was just a case of trying to get a few miles under our belts.

How did you keep yourself going when it was really tough?

The audience was just brilliant; so many people came out to cheer us on. We had moments when we wanted to get off the blummin’ bike but there were crowds of people who’d been waiting in the rain for an hour to see us so we just had to keep going. The fact that we were raising money for BBC Sport Relief as well gave us a great incentive.

Was there a specific high and a specific low?

Oh yeah. The low was probably Holme Moss – that was just a killer. Apart from the fantastic crowds, Buttertubbs was a high because that was the first big hill. It was on the second day and we were both really worried about it but we made it up there without too much of a problem.

The tandem is a big achievement in your Look North career – what would you say is the biggest achievement in your life so far?

My daughter, definitely. That sounds really soppy doesn’t it? To be honest, I feel like I’ve got everything – I’ve got a dream job, the most gorgeous, supportive husband and a healthy, beautiful baby girl. I feel like I’ve won the lottery.

Look North Yorkshire is on BBC1 every week night at 6.30pm.

BITS& PIECES Road safety ‘Oscars’ a success School children from across South Yorkshire dressed to impress for the road safety ‘Oscars’ held recently at Sheffield City Hall.

Local celebrities from the world of music, television and dance attended the ceremony to perform and present the awards.

The Chuckle Brothers acted as master of ceremonies and Teenstar 2013 winner and X Factor finalist, Luke Friend, performed and met the winners.

The South Yorkshire Safer Roads Partnership funded the initiative to encourage peer-topeer road safety education in secondary schools.

Students devised a piece of theatre in education incorporating a range of key road safety messages. They watched their film productions at the event and the winning schools were presented with prizes.

Cutting gesture A 29-year-old woman from Malin Bridge has made a hair-raising decision to shave off her hair to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support. Paula Staniland raised £2164.44 after having her head shaved.

Paula had set herself a £1,000 target and was delighted when Lloyds, who get involved with a different charity each month, promised to double whatever Paula made bringing the current total to £2164.44 with more donations still to come.

Over the next two years Macmillan has committed to spending £2million in South Yorkshire to develop a range of new cancer services to support patients and families affected by cancer.

These include an end of life care project team based across Sheffield hospitals and in care homes who will support and care for patients, plus a 1-2-1 support nurse who will support colorectal and breast cancer patients who have been discharged following treatment.

Anyone interested in supporting or fundraising for Macmillan, please call Rob Turner on 07545 419725 or email: rturner@macmillan.org.uk

Face-off for charity A man who lost his brother in a house fire as a child has chosen to support The Children’s Hospital Charity with an annual community ice hockey tournament. UK Forum All Stars, which brings together avid ice hockey fans – many of whom have never played the game – from across Britain to play an annual tournament, supports a selection of local and national charities each year.

David Grant, founder of UK Forum All Stars, decided to include the charity in the annual tournament to give something back to the hospital that saved his life.

At the 2014 tournament, The Children’s Hospital Charity All Stars team raised £4,828.92, which will go towards the charity’s Make it Better appeal. The appeal aims to raise £10million regionally by 2016 to build a new wing of the hospital.

The UK Forum All Stars ice hockey tournament will take place at Ice Sheffield on 24-26 July.

MP visits Oughtibridge school Angela Smith, MP for Penistone and Stocksbridge, visited Oughtibridge Primary School to look at how the school is being expanded in order to accommodate the children in the catchment area.

Angela toured the school with headteacher Pat Munt and chair of governors Dave Cates. Angela looked at the proposed site for the expansion and listened to their concerns about the lack of dining provision for the increase in pupil numbers from September.

Local church hosts annual festival 12-14 June will be the weekend of the annual Wadsley Arts Festival – but this year will be bigger and better than ever before.

Wadsley Parish Church is hosting the event, on Worrall Road, to put Wadsley back on the map. There will be a packed programme set to entertain and inspire with a variety of arts and activities.

There will be a variety of artwork on display including sculptures, glass work and watercolours.

Sheffield artist exhibitions include Jason Heppenstall, Simon Kent, Philip Palmer, Dee Smith and Robin Garside.

The programme will also include circus acts, live art demonstrations, dance performances, drama sessions, jewellery making, live music, pop-up cinema, food, graveyard tour and poetry readings.

There will be plenty of activities to entertain the children with games and a charity raffle.

All day Saturday and Sunday are free with Friday and Saturday evenings being ticketed for the meal, folk night and jazz concert.

Celebrating reading at Oughtibridge Primary School As part of Book Week, Oughtibridge Primary School invited Andy Cope to the school.

Andy, author of the children’s Spy Pup series of books and the Art of Being Brilliant, set the children a writing challenge after talking to the school about being a writer.

Andy brought Star, his pet border collie, on the visit so that the children could meet the inspiration behind his Spy Pup stories.

There was a whole week dedicated to reading and each phase studied a different book – Robin Hood in FS2, The BFG in Y1/2, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory in Y3/4 and Harry Potter in Y5/6.

The week included written stories, a travelling book fair, visits from parents and ended with the children dressing up as a character from the book they were studying.

Spring bank holiday kids clubs Wisewood Sports Centre is hosting an exciting programme of activities to keep kids entertained over the spring bank holiday.

Ranging from tennis tots to arts and crafts, soccer camp to Disney dance, it will be great fun for everyone.

The full list of activities is available to view at www.wisewoodsportscentre.co.uk/holiday-programmes or phone 0114 233 5457 for more information.

Sheffield 6 and the Great Flood Local man Mick Drewry has written a book on the Great Sheffield Flood, which devastated Sheffield 6 in 1864 and caused the greatest loss of life ever recorded in a single event in the area.

‘Inundation – The History, the Times and the People of the Great Sheffield Flood of 1864’ is available at the Strines Inn, Old Horns Inn High Bradfield, Nag’s Head Inn, Stacey Bank and at both Bradfield and Loxley post offices.

It is also available direct from the author, signed on request, and delivered free in Sheffield 6.

Tel: 01226 762477.

Competition entrants meeting with a SWFC player Adults and children who entered The Family Craft Café, Child’s Play painting competition, had a chance to meet a Sheffield Wednesday player at the Hillsborough football ground shop.

The lucky competition entrants, who had painted crafted owls at Child’s Play workshops, had a question and answer session and photos with the player, before he helped judge the competition and chose the winner.

COMPLETE KITCHEN & BEDROOM SOLUTIONS

From a replacement worktop to a whole new kitchen or bedroom, there’s no job too small for CKB. aving traded out of 133 Middlewood Road for over six years now, the Sheffield public are becoming well aware of the high quality, bespoke service on offer at Complete Kitchens and Bedroom Solutions.

Owned by Scott Webster, CKB offer a complete kitchen and bedroom service alongside the capability of anything from removing walls to building extensions. Scott said: “When you come to us you really do get everything. Building work, electrics, plastering, decoration, fitting, flooring – this is a one-stop-shop.”

But just because Scott and his team can perform complete renovations, that doesn’t mean that they have to. CKB understand that not everybody can afford top to bottom renovations at this moment in time so are more than happy to work on anything from replacing a single kitchen unit upwards.

“I can do eight metres of worktop and a new sink and tap for £950 or a whole kitchen or bedroom – so people can have whatever they can budget for,” said Scott. “And if you have your own electrician or plumber that you would like to use then you are more than welcome to do so. We will do as little or as much as you wish.”

A feature of CKB which sets it apart from many of its competitors is that it manufactures everything on site, giving it a bespoke service.

This means it can cater to any needs or desires.

Scott employs a close team of dedicated workers including a registered electrician, and plumber, as well as qualified plasterer, brick layers and window fitters, who are all contracted to CKB. Gloss doors particularly in white and cream are in vogue at the current time. This gives a room a fresh appearance and Scott has seen requests for this design boom.

H

Consequently Scott is offering deals on an Astro white and cream gloss – check in at the showroom or give him a call for more deals. Scott doesn’t Mr and Mrs Carter, S20 believe in such gimmicks as Fitted April 2015 offering customers ten per cent off their total bill though. “These are often used to pull the wool over people’s eyes. I offer competitive prices from the word go.”

Should you contact CKB, Scott will come out to view your home for a free appointment. The visit normally lasts for an hour depending on job size. “I don’t give quotes off-the-cuff. I am meticulous when it comes to pricing, so post-appointment I will go through everything and provide an accurate, itemised and fair quote.”

Scott is the initial point of contact for customers and he not only designs his work but does the fitting too. Once Scott has committed to a job he dedicates all his time to it from inception to completion. He guarantees that he will not be working on multiple projects at one time and is even willing to turn down work to be able to do this. “My customers like to know that I will always be there and that they have my undivided attention. That is the least they deserve and will get when they come to me.” As such his customers can contact him 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Doors and worktops are guaranteed for a decade but for extra peace of mind Scott ensures that payment comes in instalments and that the full fee is not paid until the job has been completed satisfactorily.

For a company that will provide your home with undivided, specialist and bespoke attention, give CKB a call today!

Welcome To My Office – Views from the roofs of Sheffield S6 Simon Slater of Slater’s Aerial Services has a different ‘office view’ to most of us – a rooftop vista of Sheffield. But can you guess exactly where in the S6 postcode area he was when he took these photographs? To find out, follow @SlatersAerials and @SixerRMC on Twitter – the answer will be revealed at the end of the month.

Congratulations to those of you who guessed where Simon was in last month’s pictures – Heavygate Road to Heavygate Avenue, and Meredith Road towards Malin Bridge School.
