TODDLERS from across the Ribble Valley launched walnut sailing boat candles to mark the traditional Candlemas festival. Children and parents who attend the area’s Steiner group, Acorns, also took part in a candle dipping workshop at Pendleton Vil­ lage Hall as part of the continuing celebra­


tions. Candlemas, which is traditionally held


on February 2nd, takes its name from the blessing of candles on this day for use in church throughout the coming year.


, The Valley’s Acorns, who meet at With-


gill Fold, Clitheroe, three times a week, fol­ low the philosophy of educationalist Rudolf Steiner. He believed pre-school children should use only natural materials in learn­ ing and play. The aim is to maintain the youngsters’ natural rhythm by following the seasons and festivals which occur dur­ ing a year. Pictured at the candle boat launch are, from the left, Ben Cameron, Thomas and Caroline Muldoon, with Angela and Matthew Taylor, (s)

FORMER pupils of St Augustine’s RC High School, Billington.now at St Mary’s College in Blackburn have been congratulated. Three students have scored an academic hat- trick.


Helen Flatley, Jonathan Keane and Samantha Richard­ son have been given conditional offers by Cambridge Uni­ versity. Helen (17), from Grindleton, is hoping to go to New


Hall to read history; Jonathan (18), Billington, is head­ ing for Trinity Hall to read English, and Samantha (18), of Brockhall Village, is aiming to study law at Magda­ lene College. Head teachfer of St Augustine’s, Mr Anthony McNa­


mara, said: "Helen, Jonathan and Samantha deserve their success. We're delighted for them and very proud of their achievements. Congratulations also to St Mary's which, year-on-year, delivers such wonderful results with our students who go there after completing their GCSEs with us". All three students arrived at St Mary’s from St Augus­


tine’s in September, 2001, and are taking A-levels at the college. St Mary’s has a particularly successful record of sending students to either Oxford or Cambridge Univer­ sity, and 15 students over the past three years have been successful in gaining admission. Mr Mike Finley, principal of St Mary’s, said: "We are


delighted that the high academic potential of these young people has been recognised by these Cambridge colleges. Both they and their teachers from St Augus­ tine’s and St Mary’s should be congratulated." Pictured from the left are Helen, Samantha and
