BUSINESS has boomed for enter­ prising pupils at Ribblesdale Tech-


| nology College High School, Clitheroe.


, Stained glass products and a year


book, produced by the Queens Road school's Young Enterprise firm, Phoenix, have sold well; and led to an excellent trading year for the 25 company mem­


bers. Since trading started, the school has


already secured a number of trophies, one for an interim presentation, another for the business plan it provided at the start of the competition and, earlier this year, five firm representatives secured top spot in a com­ petition held in Brussels. As well as paying shareholders a divi­ dend of 512%, the team has also been able


to give a donation of £250 to Macmillan


Nurses. "It has been an excellent trading year;


however, it is not just about performance, but it is about learning by doing,” said the school's Young Enterprise link teacher, Mr


Neil Ashworth. When the firm was launched in Septem­


ber, it started with a share capital of £250, but went on to turn over £11,800 and make a net profit of more than £2,000 before tax. Those who had invested in'the firm were due to attend a shareholders’ meeting on


Monday. Our photograph shows company secre­


tary Louise Hayes with the cheque and pupils Gretal Jackson, Laura Speak and Tom Sharpies, together with Christine Butschok, from Macmillan Nurses. (050400/12/25)

I hard to beat. The man who spotted

Rob’s bdoidet attempts to A}-., r -"r ' town clerk t

clerk between 1909 and 1934, came to Clitheroe from the Isle of Wight. During his 50 years in the town, he made his mark with many organi­ sations, sporting, religious and historic, but, since his death in 1935, many people have asked why a man who trained as a solicitor in the Isle of Wight should be drawn to Clitheroe and then should make such an immedi­ ate impact. As usual, Mr Jones has

THE annual spring flower and bulb show, staged on Sunday by Rimington and District Gardening Club, was well up to standard in the quality of the


Spring show’s blaze of colour draws crowds ‘i l i i l s f i


exhibits. Amidst a blaze of colour


I officially declared the show open and presented trophies


in Gisburn Festival Hall, long-serving member Mr Alex Parker, of Gisburn,

| to the winners. He was thanked by president Mrs P. Townsend, and chairman Mrs J. Gornall presented Mr Parker with a gift. All the entries were excel­


lent, but, as ever, the eye was drawn by those of the young people. There was also a wonderful display by the pupils of Gisburn Pri­ mary School. In conjunc­ tion with the church, the scholars had produced designs for the cover of Gis­ burn parish magazine. The playgroup had made bright­ ly-coloured butterflies as their contribution.
