FIFTEEN children from the city of Mogilev in Belarus experienced the sights, sounds, tastes and smells of farming when they visited “Pepper Hill” bed and break fast in the picturesque village of Wiswell. For a day, proprietor Mrs
Ruth Collinson, played host to the children aged between seven and 12 during their one month visit to Clitheroe. The annual event, now in its
ninth year is organised by the local branch of the Friends of Chernobyl’s Children. Throughout the day, children
had fun at a picnic, had the opportunity to feed sheep and other animals and witnessed var ious talks and animal demonstra tions from Mr Bill Heslop and his assistant Muriel. Although the farm animals
proved the biggest hit with the youngsters, as a special treat, a bubble mix made by Mrs Collinson enabled them to have
fun by blowing big bubbles - resulting in a memorable day for both Mrs Collinson and the chil dren.
Commenting on the successful
visit, Mrs Collinson, said: “Everyone had an absolutely wonderful time. “It was a pleasure to see all the
children excited and being able to have a taste of agricultural life.” Sharinoi Deruchenko is pic

FORENSIC science was the “crime”-busting key for junior detectives.
Pupils from local prima
ry schools and students from Ribblesdale High School, Clitheroe, have jus t received CREST bronze award certificates for participating in after school classes in which they had to solve a ficti tious crime using forensic science techniques. The classes have run
throughout the academic year and involved Year 8 students from Ribblesdale working collaboratively with their primary school friends. Each week the students were given evi dence from the scene of the crime and had to piece together clues to find out who stole a guitar belong ing to pop group “Busted”. The “suspects” were all
other bands, pop stars and sports heroes including “Blazin’ Squad”, “S Club”, “Zach Shaw”, “James Beattie” and “Ms Dynamite”.

Pupils take centre stage at opening
by Vivien Meath
CHILDREN took centre stage as Bolton-by-Bowland CE Pri mary School celebrated the completion of its new exten sion. The youngsters gathered excit
edly with parents and relatives as the Rt. Rev. David James, Bishop of Bradford, cut the tape declaring the new premises well and truly open. He was welcomed by head
teacher Mrs Marilynne Ashmore, who retires at the end of the sum mer term after seven years at the school and 36 years in teaching. Infants Callum Walmsley and
Sophie Leeming helped to cut the tape and Siobhan Hall presented flowers to the Bishop's wife, Gill. Following speeches and a prayer
of blessing, the visitors followed the children and staff into the school hall and gallery, where it was standing room only. Primary and infant school
pupils entertained, the infants beginning with: "Tiny caterpillar on a leaf," followed by "Clocks" by the juniors. Pupils from Year 5 and 6 described a recent activity holi
day. A visit to the doctor, complete
with actions, and sung in French, impressed everyone present before pupils performed "Dragon Hunt." This was the tale of a trek into the hills to find a dragon in a cave. The pupils had been coached by
actress Cathy McCardle "k " unable to be present, t
Thumbs up j for extra
classrooms PUPILS at St Mary’s RC Primary j School, in Langho, j will soon benefit from extra space after permission was granted'by the coun cil for the construc tion of two new classrooms. One letter of
objection was sent to Ribble Valley
Borough Council expressing concerns about the parking problems near the school and the inconvenience the development will cause to nearby resi dents. The borough
council’s planning officer, Mr Mark Ollerenshaw, felt the development would improve the school’s facilities and not accommodate an increase in the num ber of pupils or teachers. He also outlined
in his report that the scheme was in keep
ing with the area. j

place was taken by Mrs Ashmore. The entertainment ended with
the singing of the new school song. The school recently received
sponsorship allowing professional songwriter Mike Annatt to coach the pupils. They worked together to produce
the words and music for a school song which is now recorded on CD. The song starts in 1874 following
the progress of the building, then a hall, with the catchphrase "BYB is the place to be, we are all one fami
ly." Refreshments concluded an
extremelv successful event which iported, despite clash-
ing with one of the England Euro
2004 football matches. Mrs Ashmore began her teaching
career in the village school at Stain ing, near Blackpool. She described her years at
Bolton-by-Bowland as "wonderful, one of the nicest places you could possibly wish to teach." She taught in three Burnley
schools and was deputy head at St Stephen's for 15 years before mov ing to the post in the Ribble Valley. Pictured are Callum and Sophie
with the Bishop, his wife, Mrs Ash more and the Rev. David Mewis at the opening. (CR170604/1)
