'"A Clitheroe-based sports ■ masseur has been crowned


K both British Fell Running m Champion and English Fell 0 Running Champion


. Victoria Wilkinson, who works at Denise Park Physi­ otherapy in Clitheroe, sealed


q the twin titles after winning the final race of the season at Hodder Valley Show, where she" smashed the course

won two races and finished second in another in the British series, and won all five of the English championship races that she competed in - racing in Italy for the sixth

her sponsors inov8, employ­ er Denise, all her family and boyfriend Darren.


A Clitheroe primary school has added an extra reception class because ofthe number of new houses being built in the town. St James’ CE Prima­


ry School, in Greenacre Street, has started the new school year with two classes dedicated to new starters in reception. _ This year 56 youngsters


have started at the Church of England school and are divided between two classes. The increase in pupils


has meant that the school has employed a new teach­ er, Miss Cranswick, who will teach one of the reception classes. St James’ headteacher

Mrs Fiona Pattison said: “The education authority choose St James’ school as the most suitable to cope with the increased demand for school places due to the large numberofnewhouses being built in the area. As a result, we have appointed Miss Cranswick to teach our


new reception class, Acorn.” In previous years, St


James’ yearly intake was 45 children, the majority of whom were taught in a pure reception class and the re­ maining in a split Reception/ Year 1 class. ' The children of parents


who applied to other over­ subscribed Clitheroe pri­ mary schools this year were offered a place at St James' where there is the additional capacity. All-the new reception


pupils were provided with a handmade gingerbread lollipop from the Friends of St James' School Committee to welcome them to school. An open day is being held


at St James’ on Wednesday, November 12th. All parents of children who are due to start primary school in September 2015 are wel­ come to visit the school on this day. • For more details,can

Footballing girls show how it’s done!


Clitheroe Wolves FC has put together a new under-iis girls’ team.


Some'of the new squad had gained previous experience in the boys’ teams, but some had never kicked a football before they started training together back in June. Preparations started with a six-week taster programme set up by Ross Hibbert, with help from Nicole Burgess.


It saw enough girls attending to be able to make a team, managed by Nicole, and soon a kit was donated, sponsored by local trades­ man Tony Pritt, whose granddaughter plays on the team. The icing on the cake came when the girls’ team won theirveryfirstmatch 9-4, playing away against Academy Juniors in Bolton.

able to attend the summit at Chequers and am totally in support of the introduc­ tion of English only votes on devolved matters,” said Mr Evans. “I believe that a consen­


sus was reached on this issue and that we are mov­ ing closer to reaching a more acceptable constitu­ tional settlement for all of the British people.” Mr Evans added: “Giv­


en the result of the Scot­ tish referendum and the proposals for more power to be given to the Scottish Parliament it is only right that English voters are af­ forded the same amount of representation as Scottish voters. “This is not a means


to divide the people, but purely an eveningoutofthe democratic playing field.”
