Editors Letter...
Peel investments have been granted
permission via Doncaster Council to
build 750 homes together with roads,
footpaths and play areas on 46 acres
of land off Hurst Lane, near Robin
Hood Airport. This will have a huge
impact on the villages, some positive, some
negative. Blaxton village has around 500
homes, Finningley Village has approximately
650 homes, Auckley Main and Hayfield
together make up another 1350
approximately. A further 750 homes will
provide a community bigger than most
surrounding villages.
There are special conditions attached
which involves large investment from Peel
towards the Finningley and Rossington
Regeneration Route Scheme, as well as a
possible investment in a new primary
school to accommodate children in the
area and other local business projects.
The arrow would be interested in hearing
your views. Please e-mail me at my address
below.
On a lighter note, you will read how we
have our very own Ice skating star in the
making. Molly Lanaghan, from Branton and
a pupil at Hayfield School, has already won
countless trophies and competitions
including the prestigious ‗The UK‘s Most
Promising Skater Award‘. We may very
well have an Olympic star in our midst.
Well done Molly and we wish you all the
very best in your promising career.
Best wishes

Branton St Wilfrid’s C.E. Primary School
The end of the Autumn term now seems a long time ago, but in spite of the snow we still
managed to complete our full range of Christmas activities. We moved our Christmas Fair
forward a week and, as usual, the children worked incredibly hard during ‘Factory Week’ to
make a huge variety of craft items including homemade crackers, biscuits, candle holders,
wind chimes, fridge magnets, badges and decorations. The children worked out how much the
raw materials cost, and took into account the time each item had taken to make, in order to
set their costs-so we could have some budding apprentices for Lord Sugar in the making! As
well as parents and relatives of the school many
members of our local community joined us and we
raised an amazing £1429 so thank you very much
for your support.
‘Red Riding Hood’
After the Christmas holiday the children had a
treat to look forward to on their return to
school. A touring theatre company visited school
on the first afternoon back to give a wonderful
performance of ‘Red Riding Hood’. This visit was
funded by our wonderful Parent Teacher
Association.

Our Greek Story telling and Puppet Making Day
In Class 3 we have been
learning about the Ancient
Greeks. Some visitors came
into school and told us the
story of Odysseus. We learnt
about gods like Zeus and
Poseidon and goddesses like
Athene and Aphrodite. In
the afternoon we chose a
Greek figure to be and made
a puppet of them. Some chil-
dren chose to make monsters
like the one eyed Cyclops and
the beautiful singing sirens.
Other characters were
Odysseus and his men Aeolus,
Hermes, Helios, Circe, Ca-
lypso and Poseidon. We performed a puppet show for the Infants, telling the story of Odys-
seus and some of his adventures.
We all enjoyed the day and learned lots about the Ancient Greeks.
By Ben and Jemima, Class 3
Class 5’s Day with Henry VIII
On Monday 10th January Class 5 had a visit from Henry VIII! He gave us lots of facts about
Henry VIII and he told us about how he lived like a king.
First, Henry VIII told us about himself and gave Class 5 photos. We learned that Henry
VIII’s father Henry VII defeated Richard III and took the throne so Henry VIII became
king after him. Then we made a paper wing of an eagle and an owl. We cut feathers in it. You
can just hold it up and drop it, then it glides without you having to throw it!
Next, we practised walking like a royal and we wrote with quills and ink. Henry VIII also
taught us a Tudor dance which we per-
formed at the end of the day.
Class 5 really enjoyed their day with
Henry VIII and learned lots of interest-
ing facts!
By Connor and Sam, Class 5
We hope you have enjoyed reading some
of our school news from the last month.

On Thursday 6th January, y7 pupils from
Hayfield School took part in a Curriculum
Day which was all about languages.
The activities ranged from cooking French crêpes
and German Kaiserschmarrn, to creating a comic
strip. Other activities during the day included de-
signing packaging for the food, producing a poster
advertising the food and a shopping list showing
the ingredients and prices. Finally at the end of the
day all the year group took part in a Spelling Bee
where the best two spellers in French and German
in each tutor group went head-to-head to compete
for the title of Spelling Bee champion!
Everyone enjoyed taking part in the activities and
would definitely participate in another languages
Curriculum Day! Our favourite activity of the day
was cooking as we got to eat the crêpes and
Kaiserschmarrn at the end. When the cooking was
finished there was also a race to see who could
clear up the fastest.
The day was a great success; everyone loved it and
had a great time!

Carols Round the Tree
The annual carol singing round the Christmas tree was held on Tuesday, 21st December 2010. In spite of
the Arctic weather conditions, a number of brave souls turned out to sing carols, ably accompanied by the
Armthorpe Elmfield Band. A collection made the sum of £52.34 towards Comforts for Patients at Don-
caster Royal Infirmary‘s Coronary Care Unit. Council wishes to thank the Armthorpe Elmfield Band for
their valiant efforts in freezing conditions, Mr. John Foster who was a splendid Santa, and members of the
public who supported this event.
Dog Fouling
Council is very concerned that a number of individuals are allowing dogs in their charge to foul the River-
side Park and subsequently making no attempt to clean up afterwards. Members of the public who wish
to help are asked to ring Doncaster Council‘s Customer Services Hotline on: 01302 736000 as soon as
possible if they witness anyone who does not clear up after their dogs and report: the name and address
of the person in charge of the dog, a description of the dog, the circumstances, date, time and place of
offence. Alternatively you can email a message to: [email protected]
DMBC‘s Enforcement Officers will also be monitoring the situation and are permitted to issue a fixed
penalty fine of £50. Furthermore, Magistrates can impose a fine of up to £1,000 on offenders for non-
payment of a fixed penalty fine or for being uncooperative when approached.
Removal of Bus Shelter at Main Street
Council is negotiating with the landowner who has been very helpful and supports Council‘s proposal to
replace the bus shelter. Hopefully a satisfactory conclusion will be reached.

Ice Skating
Queen Molly Lanaghan
Talented local, Molly Lanaghan from
Branton started skating just three
years ago and immediately came to
the attention of coaches at Ice
Sheffield.
After just seven months, Molly skated in her
first national competition and won gold
medal in all three events of her solo ice
dance competition, then went on to win her
first national title, ‗Juvenile Ice Dance
Champion‘.
Molly started the next season winning gold
and silver medals at nationals around the UK.
This season closed with Molly winning a medal
in the British solo dance championships,
and again, winning her second national title
of Novice ladies solo dance championships.
In May 2009, Molly was introduced to figure
skating, where she found the jumps and
spins exhilarating and loved the challenge!
Molly won one gold and silver in beginner levels, and
moved straight onto level 2. Molly has taken gold and
silver medals in lots of nationals, Telford, Bracknell,
Milton Keynes, and Teeside. Molly was awarded the
prestigious title of the UK‘s most promising skater award,
another great addition to her achievements. In May this year,
Molly skated her first IJS scoring system, (International Judg-
ing System) and achieved her first ever score of 21.23, and is
now focused on continuously improving her personal best.
Molly was selected to represent Great Britain this year in
Milan Italy, a huge experience for an 11year old, and
achieved her personal best with an amazing 34.25!
Molly finished this years season as a level 6 ladies figure
skater and has again won gold medal in Dundee nationals.
Her coach says ‗Molly has great passion for this sport, she
shows tremendous self discipline and work ethic for her age,
she trains 2-4 hours a day 5 times a week. We look forward
to watching Molly develop in the coming years, and achieve
her dream of going to Olympics for her country.

Road Signs
Dear Readers, The ending of the red flag requirement in 1896 heralded the ear of the motorcar and some motoring
associations took up the business of placing signs. The Motor Car Act of 1903 made local authorities
responsible for placing certain warning and propitiatory signs. For crossroads steep hills and dangerous
bends.
A hollow red triangle indicated a warning sign a solid red disc signified prohibitions. Speed limit signs had a
hollow white ring above the plate giving the speed limit in figures. Other notices were on diamond shaped
boards.
Advanced Drivers know what all road signs mean and update their knowledge from time to time with a
glance from the Highway Code. Road signs are the shape they are because, even if you can‘t see the sign
clearly, say in fog / snow or heavy rain, you‘ll still know when you see a triangular sign that there may be a
significant hazard ahead.
That‘s why the Stop sign is shaped octagonal like the fifty pence coin.
If it‘s covered in snow or traffic dirt you still will be able to tell what the sign is by its shape, a Stop sign.
All warning signs are triangular. Advisory signs are rectangular. Round signs are ―the law‖ you must do
what they say.
Don‘t ignore them, road signs are there for a reason they provide advanced information to help you
avoid danger. You should be extra vigilant about some signs, like those warning signs of schools nearby, as
they may indicate a 20mph speed limit ahead.
A pole with two or more signs on it should be read from the top down the top sign being the first hazard.
Also don‘t ignore farmer‘s signs eg: Mud on the road or PYOS,
yes (pick your own strawberry‘s) you may find extra traffic movement and pedestrians around the
entrance to the field.
The provision of new signs is a continuous process. As the volume and type of traffic on our roads change,
ways of giving essential information to drivers and improving traffic flow and road safety have to be
reviewed.
New signs and road markings are well and truly tested at certain locations to demonstrate their
effectiveness before their
wide-scale use is
recommended. Special signals
and road markings at
pedestrian crossings and signs
and markings to indicate min-
roundabouts and bus lanes
ect: it‘s an ongoing research
program by the Highways
Agency.

courses that we offer, you‘ll

Happy Easter!
My parents rang me the other day, nothing unusual in that, they ring me each week. However, the opening
topic of conversation was unusual and surprising.
You see, it was the first week of January, and following the plague of locusts that had eaten their way
through their supplies, also known by their Latin name ‗grandchildrenus maximus’ my parents needed to
visit the supermarket to re-stock. To their great surprise they found Easter eggs and hot cross buns on
display! Granted, they live in Cheshire and it can be a little odd, however, as I recall they‘re not yet using
their own calendar...or were they?!
So, my phone call early in January began with, “You’ll never guess what we saw in the supermarket the other
day!” and they were right, after 45 minutes of guessing, I had failed to get the right answer, although I did
discover there were some interesting offers on hair dye and ladies tights!
I was so perturbed I set of to look at another large supermarket near Doncaster town centre. I know, we
vicars lead such interesting lives. Anyway, shock, horror, right next to the security desk they were selling
hot cross buns! It was all too much, it appears that Yorkshire too is experimenting with a new calendar,
and in addition, they‘re having to provide extra security for their pastries!
Joking aside, most of the major supermarkets are indeed currently selling hot cross buns, and some Easter
eggs, albeit the small variety. As the Christmas season ends and we start a new year, they need to employ
new marketing plans. Interestingly, Easter is just about as late as it can be this year as it falls on Sunday 24 th
April, and so it looks like hot cross buns and Easter eggs will be around for the next 3 months! Although, I
suspect already that we will find a generous sprinkling of Valentine‘s Day cards and presents!
Why am I telling you all this? Because, I believe we can, without realising, be taken through the year too
quickly as we move from one area of focus to another – Christmas to Easter to Summer Holidays to
Christmas again. Then, the bits in between lose their own identity, and can pass us by. A friend of mine
works in Pakistan, and since moving there he says he‘s become far more aware of the seasons and times
of the year, because the food is very seasonal. He feels
that time seems to pass slower, and that he appreciates
what‘s around him far more.
God gave us a fantastic world to live in, with so much
beauty in nature and people. Soon, the snow drops will
be popping up, they will be short lived so try not to
miss them.
Blessings
