THE principal of Oakhill College, Whalley, Mr Philip Mahon, and Year 11 pupils, visit ed Ribble Valley Mayor Coun. Mrs Joyce Holgate at the town hall for a discussion and
workshop. The Mayor thanked pupils for their visit ,
and hoped they would provide a young per son’s perspective on a number of issues con
cerning people in the town. Mr Bill Alker, policy development officer
•for the borough, led the meeting with repre sentatives of the youth service and police. In the workshop, part of Oakhill College’s
citizenship programme, pupils discussed and debated three case studies. These involved the misuse of an area of derelict land and how the community could better use it, the problem of young people playing football in prohibited areas and how a skateboard facility could be
provided. Mr Alker congratulated the pupils for their
presentations, ideas and clarity of delivery.. The Mayor gave pupils a tour of the town
hall and Mayor’s parlour and has been invited to the college on November 15th to join the preparatory department at its assembly.

THE new replacement space at Whalley CE Primary School was officially handed over on
Monday and is now in use. A fortnight on Saturday, Novem
b e r 16th, th e re will be an open morning a t the school and anyone interested in looking round will be
welcome. Work on the exterior of the main
building, including removing render and repainting woodwork, will help the new and old blend as well as possi
ble. This aspect of the essential project
to demolish the unsafe original part of the school and provide three new class rooms and a library caused great con cern to some local people. One of the new classrooms was in
use this week and more equipment was arriving to fit the others. Moving the school's
library.into the
new section will take a little longer. Meanwhile', an' application for
."basic need" funding to extend the school by two classrooms will be con sidered by the Government before the end of the year. As reported, the county council bid
reflects the increasing number of chil dren in the area. The Whalley school
is now full, with 245 children on the roll, 35 more than last year. If the cash bid is successful, num bers could increase by up to another
35 once extra accommodation and increased staff numbers were in place.
