Its first festival took place in ’


1966 as part of village celebra­ tions marking 1,400 years of Christianity in Chipping. ■ Both of these previous events


have attracted interest from professional flower arrangers and designers. Funds raised at this summer’s


festival will be used to help with the maintenance and upkeep of the historic village church which can date its history back to at

www.cntherocadvertlser.co.uk ClitheroeAdvertlser&TImGS,Thursday, J u ly l ,2010 Sir retires after 36 years ■ by Faiza Afzaal


A POPULAR and well-liked assist­ ant headteacher said farewell to a


school where he has taught for 36 years. ' _ It was a poignant send off for Mr


Zenon Ciezarek, who was surrounded by 23 of the 26 current members of staff who were taught by him when they themselves were pupils at St Augus­


tine’s RC High School, Billington, as helcft.


. :.. Mr Ciezarek started teaching at St


Augustine’s in January 1975 after mov­ ing up north from Swindon to marry his wife, Helen, who is from Burnley. ■ He began his career teaching geog­


raphy and games. However, hislalents quickly shone through and he rose up the ranks, becoming in turn, head of Year 8, head of lower school, head of upper school and finally assistant headteacher, a post he has held for the past 18 years. Both of his sons, Adam and Andrew,


also attended St Augustine’s. Over a long and distinguished career Mr Cie­ zarek has taught over 6,000 pupils from the Ribble Valley, Hyndburn and Padi- ham and many of these have since be­ come parents of current pupils. Headteacher, Mr Anthony McNa­


mara, paid tribute to his hard work and commitment. He said: “His kindness, liis commitment to bringing the best out of our pupils and his great sense of humour have all helped to make him


the proverbial legend in his own life­ time. “VVc’re all going to miss him and we wish him and Mrs Ciezarek a long,


healthy and active retirement togeth­ er.”


MUCH-LOVED: Mr Cierzarek is surrounded by 23 members of staff whom he taught as pupils. Teenager stole from own gran


A CLITHEROE teenager bur­ gled his gran’s home after going round hoping to borrow money and discovering she was not in. Leon Andrews let himself


into the address and went on to remove a laptop computer and wrist watch. Preston Crown Court heard that the offence arose


against the background of a drug problem.


Andrews (19), of Woone Lane,


was given 12 months’ supervision, which will include drug rehabilita­ tion. He was sentenced for one offence of burglary, with two oth­ ers taken into consideration. He had no previous convictions.


Judge Michael Byrne told the


teenager: “You are different from a lot of drug users who are sen­ tenced daily in this court. “You have a good education


and good qualifications. You are not that far down the drug road that you cannot be helped.”

■ 13 Favour for friend


fell foil! of order A MAN expecting a “couple of pints” in return for doing a favour for a publican friend instead ended up spending a night in custody.


.


. Blackburn magistrates heard the pub fell within a 100-metre exclusion zone imposed on James Ford as part of a non-molestation order in relation to his ex-partner. He was arrested after his ex-partner saw ^


him outside the Royal Oak in Clitheore ' where he was laying some astro turf in the beer garden. Ford (46), of Petre Wood Close, Lang-


ho, pleaded guilty to breaching the non­ molestation order. He was made subject to an eight-week curfew between 7 p.m. and 7 a.m.


Mr Michael Blacklidge (defending) said


that since the order had been made Ford had encountered his former partner in Tes- co and they had gone about their business without any difficulties. “All he was doing on this day was help­


ing a friend,” said Mr Blacklidge. “There was no malice in his actions and no desire to cause any distress to her.”
