They outlined some of the reasons school children play truant, for example, they don’t like the teacher or lesson and feel that there are many other things they would rather be doing. Lessons such as Maths and French are particularly avoided. But be careful, it never pays to skive. You could get into trou­ ble with your parents, the school and even the police. Also, you could leave school without qualifications and then find life very difficult without a job. Anyway, thanks. Trinity, for sending in the magazine. Keep

A great place to go this month is Rollerama in Great Harwood. This top class roller-skating rink is the per­ fect place for a fun night out. Apart from the skating, there are three pool tables, a great selection of video games and a live DJ for the two roller discos each week. If you’re feeling peckish after all the activity, just zoom along to the fast food bar and grab a burger. It’s only 50p to hire the skates and £1.50 to get in. For the Friday and Saturday night discos, admission is £2.


★ VIDEO RECOMMENDATION*


“Who’s Harry Crumb?” is my video recommendation of the month. John Candy plays a hilarious part as a mad detective solving a mysterious crime. It’s really well worth seeing and is available from all good hire shops.
