WADDINGTON Parish Council has been granted £400 to fund a water supply
to the village allotments. It is among parish councils
across Lancashire to receive small grants in the latest round o f funding from Lancashire County Council. . Its parish champion, County Coun Mike Otter, has been visiting parishes to fund projects that benefit local communities.
i He said: “Parish councils
do a lot of hard work at grassroots level to improve local people’s quality of life. “We’ve funded everything
from a water system on the allotments at Waddington, to war memorial improvements in Bilsborrow. “These may only seem like
■ smaller projects, but they can make a big difference to people’s lives. “Any parish councils
looking for support for their services should contact me, and I’ll be happy to help.” P a r ish c o u n c i ls , :or
community -groups can contact County Coun Otter by e-mailing

SRI LANKAN teachers visited St Augustine’s RC High School, Billington, as part of an exchange visit Tharanga de Silva, a
teacher from the Tamil Girls’ High School in Badulla, Sri Lanka, enjoyed a visit to the school, and gained an insight into the British school cultures and traditions. This followed a visit by the Billington school to its global
partner school in Sri Lanka by the curriculum leader for learning support, Kay Jameson.
The week-long visit by the
group of eight Sri Lankan teachers, who were matched with schools throughout Lancashire, ended with a cultural show held at St Augustine’s for the visitors and the ir par tne r UK teachers.
■ The night’s entertainment
included music by the school’s choir and swing band, a
Scottish girl piper from The Hollins, and performances by pupils from the four Ribble Valley high schools. A traditional meat and
potato pie was served up, as well as a raffle, which, alongside a staff cake sale, raised £200 for the Badulla Catholic Orphanage. -

Although initially encouraged by
