The Parish Council were informed recently that some people are expressing concerns about local issues on social media sites and whilst people are voicing their opinions – they are not contacting the relevant bodies such as the Police and Parish Council to report them. All councillors agreed that people need to take responsibility and report matters to the relevant authority to deal with rather than complaining on a social media site. Failing to report concerns or specific problems means those able to help are not aware of the problems. Chairman Cllr Andrew Cole Tel. 01296 334651 andrew.cole@coldharbour-pc.gov.uk Vice Chairman Cllr Sally Pattinson Tel. 01296 331822 sally.pattinson@coldharbour-pc.gov.uk Cllr Pat Martin Tel. 01296 426384 pat.martin@coldharbour-pc.gov.uk Everyone is welcome to come along to Parish Council meetings if they have any questions they would like to ask the council, but we thought, that it would be useful to outline these responsibilities and to publish the names and contact deals of those who have the responsibilities so that people are able to contact them direct, see page 4. We hope that this will help you to understand who has responsibility for which areas, but if you have any further queries, please do not hesitate to contact Coldharbour Parish Council on 01296 422800. Cllr Paul Hughes Tel. 01296 630654 paul.hughes@coldharbour-pc.gov.uk Cllr Lesley Yates Tel. 01296 291281 Lesley.yates@coldharbour-pc.gov.uk Cllr Steven Lambert Tel. 01296 338387 steven.lambert@coldharbour-pc.gov.uk Cllr Stuart Jarvis Tel. 01296 331290 stuart.jarvis@coldharbour-pc.gov.uk Traffic Regulation Orders (Double Yellow Lines) Cllr Claire Hughes Tel. 01296 630654 claire.hughes@coldharbour-pc.gov.uk Cllr Tony Whittaker Tel. 01296 399907 anthony.whittaker@coldharbour-pc.gov.uk Cllr Judith Heberer Tel. 01296 427760 Judith.heberer@coldharbour-pc.gov.uk Plans are in progress for making improvements to the main play area in Fairford Leys with a view to making it more attractive to older children and teenagers in our community as well as maintaining facilities for the younger ones. Once these are finalised, we will make them available for any residents who would like to see them. Clerk to the Council Keith Gray JP, PILCM, MILM Tel. 01296 422800 clerk@coldharbour-pc.gov.uk Meet your Parish Clerk 5 The Church on Fairford Leys 7 9 Village News and Events 10/11 Fair in the Square 12/13 Fairford leys dog Show 14/15 Schools18/19 If you have any interesting articles for inclusion in the next edition please send them to sally@buskrigg.co.uk Cover Picture by Terry Pattinson. This area has always been known as ‘the main play area’ and when the improvements have been completed we feel that it would be appropriate to give it a new name. We are therefore asking for suggestions from residents as to what the playground should be called. We then plan to hold an official opening when we will name the winner. Please send your suggestions to the Fairford Leys Centre andy@fairfordleyscentre.org. uk or telephone 01296 422800. St Mary’s School Extension All the legal agreements have now been signed for the extension to St Mary’s School and preparation works will commence in mid-October on site. The works will take until July 2015 with new classrooms, staff facilities, playground lay out and hall space ready for the September 2015 intake. During the works there will be an immediate Just a reminder to all residents that you must seek separate approval from the Parish Council on any changes you make to your property even if you have been given planning permission or your changes are considered to be “Permitted Development”. When you come to sell your house your purchaser’s solicitor will pick up on this matter and some people are experiencing difficulties at the final stages of selling their homes because they failed to obtain permission from the Parish Council relating to the Ernest Cook Covenants (ECT) that are on every property on Fairford Leys. These covenants have not lapsed. AVDC Planning Authority explains this on their “Planning Permission Allowed” document making it clear that their permission to allow people to build or make changes does not mean permission under the ECT Covenants and the property owner must seek separate permission from Coldharbour Parish Council. Please contact the Clerk to the Parish Council for any advice. 01296 422800 clerk@ coldharbour-pc gov.uk Fly Tipping - Illegal dumping of waste shortage of parking spaces for staff. The Police and parking teams at Bucks CC are aware of this and have developed a parking plan for the staff.

This will take around ten weeks to complete. We hope that will help to make our streets safer and for the Silver Rider bus to pass more easily. are being urged to park at the main car park in the village centre and walk to the school during this time.

We have been notified of residents dumping garden waste near to properties around Fairford Leys and especially along the riverine corridor and land adjacent to the golf course. Please note that the dumping of all garden waste is classified as “fly-tipping” and is punishable under the law. If you see anyone dumping garden waste, or any other types of rubbish, please report it to either Coldharbour Parish, Buckinghamshire County or Aylesbury District Council. Bucks County Council and Aylesbury Vale District Council have a website that makes it easy for you to report this illegal activity anonymously. aylesburyvaledc.gov.uk/ forms/ShowSecureForm Please note that you are also responsible for the correct removal of household waste even if you use someone else to remove it for you. If someone is taking your household waste away (including DIY), you must check with the Environment Agency that they are legally authorized to do so. If your waste is dumped illegally and you haven’t checked the carrier’s credentials, you and the carrier could be fined up to £5,000. If you would like to discuss this matter further or wish to receive any further information, please contact either the Clerk or one of your local parish councillors Dog Mess Again!! We are sorry to have to keep repeating this but it is one of the biggest issues that concern residents. The Parish Council are not responsible for cleaning up after your dog - you are. Please think about other people walking where your dog has been, pick it up put it in a bag and put it into one of the bins (which the grounds staff ARE responsible for) or take it home with you. Please report anyone you see who does not do this and let’s all work together to make this an even pleasanter place to live. Grounds Maintenance Update The summer bedding which has been so beautiful is now coming to an end. We hope that the all the residents enjoyed the planters and baskets throughout the village. The baskets will soon come down and will be cleaned prepared and filled with lots of winter bedding and bulbs which we hope you will enjoy over the winter period. The months seem to be speeding by and we are nearly three quarters of the way through the year! We have been busy over the last few months watering the summer bedding and trying to keep the grass cut and litter down. We have placed an order for some new trees, which we will be planting in the autumn to replace the dead ones in cages around the village. The MVAS is being regularly moved around the village with data being collected and areas being monitored by the Council and Thames Valley Police. Speed checks have been carried out by the Police recently and it is almost exclusively Fairford Leys Residents who are breaking the speed limits. The Remembrance Service is nearly upon us and the team will be working hard to make sure the square is cleaned and the wreaths are in place for this well attended and respected day. Christmas in the Square is the next big event for us and we look forward to seeing you all there. The lights and the trees will be decorated with a couple of extra additions this year. We would like to welcome and introduce Brian Neal to the team and we hope he enjoys his new appointment. Steve Webb Grounds Manager From Your Chairman Welcome to the October edition of Coldharbour News, it seems just yesterday that we were enjoying the sunshine at the Fair in the Square. Now the nights are drawing in and the Parish Council are already planning for Christmas in the Square. Talking of Fair in the Square, this year was our busiest yet, with more visitors and more local businesses supporting the event. Of course the weather was gorgeous which always helps and I was very pleased to meet so many of you. Not only was the fair busy, the Fairford Leys Dog Show was also very well supported and I thoroughly enjoyed meeting some of our four legged residents who were very well behaved. My thanks go to all those involved in organising both events, the Clerk and Councillor Judith Heberer, our Parish Councillors and the Fairford Leys Centre staff who willingly give their time to help proceedings run smoothly and to all our stall holders who make the fair the brilliant event it is. Special thanks to Zandra Carrington and her helpers for organizing the dog show. As I mentioned winter is fast closing in and at this time of year my thoughts always turn to the safety of our residents. Again the focus is on street lamps, as the days get shorter making sure our streets have ample lighting is an on-going job. So don’t forget if you notice a streetlight out please make a note of its number and location and drop me an email. Last year although a very wet and stormy winter it was fairly mild. The Parish Council continues to try to be prepared for bad weather and will be monitoring weather reports and severe weather notifications, to try to ensure that the main roads around the village remain as passable as possible. With the possibility of bad weather I would ask that if you have an elderly neighbour just to check that they are ok from time to time. I hope to see you at Christmas in the Square and take this early opportunity to wish you and your family a very joyful Christmas and a prosperous New Year.

Are you not of more value than they? And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to their span of life?” Christmas Shop Opens 1st November. Large Selection of Decorations & Lights For some people, a Harvest Festival Service would not be complete without the hymn “We plough the fields and scatter”. It’s a good enough hymn: a rousing tune, easily understood words, and some decent theology. The problem with it is that we can get too caught up in the sentimentality. For me, it has the same problem as another old favourite hymn, “Jerusalem”. When we ask “And did those feet in ancient time…” The answer if of course - No they didn’t. It’s a nice thought, but Jesus never did visit this green and pleasant land. And similarly - do we actually plough the fields and scatter? Not many of us do that these days.

We do labour, even if it’s not often in the fresh air surrounded by rolling hills and lowing cattle. And perhaps sometimes we stop and ask ourselves what is it all for. Harvest is a time not only to be thankful for all we have, but also to remind ourselves that for all our technological advances, we are not ultimately in control of our lives. We can use our intelligence to make life more comfortable and enjoyable on the whole, but - as the hymn, and Jesus’ words, reminds us - what we plant and sow, is ultimately controlled by God who gives the growth and provides for our needs. The autumn calendar is always very full; there are many important occasions in these next few months, and we will be tempted to be busier than ever. This will be true for many of us in the church as well, not only because of the number of special events and services, but also because our long-awaited building re-development work will soon be underway, and will occupy us all the way through to next Easter. But the objective of this work - and hopefully of all our labours - is to enjoy “all good gifts around us” that are “sent from heaven above”. We hope that the re-developed building will provide an environment that is better able to help us be still, reflect and be thankful. We want to provide a facility that will help us to worship God in all sorts of ways, which is the main purpose of the Church. The harvest hymn ends by reminding us of that: “But what thou most desirest, our humble, thankful hearts.” Christmas may seem a long way away, but why not make a note in your diary of any services you would like to attend.

The seeds were sown by the Parish Council Grounds Maintenance Team and add a wonderful splash of colour. Your Local Police Team Officers from the local Police team attended the September meeting of the Parish Council; PC D Burns, PCSO J Gavin and PCSO Diane Timms. Cllrs. Lambert and Eastwood have had very useful discussions with the Officers who said that they would try to attend more Parish Council meetings in the future. Some of the matters discussed were, The Care Homes on Fairford Leys and Speeding Vehicles - Police have given various “warnings” to residents who are deemed to be the main culprits for speeding vehicles on Fairford Leys inner roads. They also hope to set up a mobile Police Station in Fairford Leys, in order that residents can report any concerns more easily. In the meantime they can be contacted by calling 101 Beautiful Wild Flowers This picture of a breathtaking display of wild flowers was taken at the end of September The Parish Council is also looking to sow wild flowers across other parts of the parish. We are in discussion with AVDC on taking over the ownership/transfer of all open spaces on Fairford Leys which means the Parish Council would be responsible for their maintenance. Discussion will also centre around financial assistance from AVDC as well as careful discussion on how the Parish Council can manage and pay for the upkeep. The ownership or transfer of land would mean that all the areas would be carefully managed by CPC for the residents. New Painter and Decorator living on Fairford Leys forever, with the added bonus of being healthier! You may have noticed a bright blue van out and about round Fairford Leys. This belongs to painter and decorator Shaun Berry who has been advertising regularly in Coldharbour News and has recently moved to live here. Joanna Beardsmore-Dilks who runs the classes in Aylesbury said “We are overjoyed to have broken the record: it was such an honour to be involved!! I loved every moment of it. It is always a great feeling to raise money for local causes and what better way to do so, than to mark the official launch of Glow with such an exciting event” Shaun has over 30 years experience in decorating and can turn his hand to many of the jobs, big or small that we are unable to undertake ourselves. His skills cover both indoor and outdoor painting, so if your front door is looking a bit tired, why not give him a ring.

Other jobs that Shaun is able to carry out include, general maintenance, small plumbing and carpentry jobs, gutter cleaning and maintenance, garden fencing and repairs and even putting together flat pack furniture.

The fair has become such a well recognized event in the summer at Fairford Leys and this year it was as well supported as ever. Thanks to everyone who worked hard to make this a success. Special thanks go to the Clerk, Cllr Heberer and the Leisure Committee for organizing the event and to the Fairford Leys Centre staff and Maintenance Team who willingly give up their time to contribute to the running of the fair. Without them we would not be able to hold the event. Ice-cream, candy floss, burgers, and cakes were on offer at various stalls and the bar did a roaring trade all afternoon. Thanks to the efforts of Cllr Eastwood, this year we had more stalls than ever before offering their wares. Some were to raise money for charity and some simply to offer a market place for their arts and crafts. Hartwell Nurseries in particular made a bright splash of colour with their flower displays. Thanks to all the stall holders who helped to make the day a success. See pictures on page 21 Chairman, Councillor Andrew Cole opened the proceedings.The Ferris wheel, carousel, swing boats and helta-skelta were all there as usual and there were queues for these throughout the afternoon. Once again the climbing wall proved very popular with the children as did the kiddies rides and the children’s entertainer who kept them busy dancing as well as teaching them to make balloon models. We re- instated the Fancy Dress Competition this year which was won by the Mad Hatter of Fairford Leys. Later in the afternoon Chairman, Councillor Andrew Cole presented the prizes to the winners of the Dog Show. This increasingly popular event was again very successful. Thanks Zandra Carrington and her team for organizing it. See pages 14 and 15 for a report and pictures. The church also opened its doors to the children who were amused by church members helping them with various arts and crafts including the very popular loom bands. Outdoor activities were available in the garden. Thanks to the Church ladies who served tea and cakes. Take a look at the pictures of the fair which we hope brings back memories of a very pleasant summers afternoon. 12 Pictures by Cllr Tony Whittaker and Terry Pattinson 13 The 5th Annual Fairford Leys Dog Show 2014 It was quite a spectacle, when the photographer from the Bucks Herald gathered together all the dogs and owners for a quick photo at the start of this year’s show. So many gorgeous dogs, so many happy human faces of all ages. It made me realise how far the Dog Show has come in the 5 years since its modest beginnings. It has grown rapidly, and this year we had more dogs, more stalls and more sponsors than ever. I think it’s clear that Fairford Leys needs a Dog Show and I am enormously grateful to all who made it possible again this year - Emily and Jonathan Ladyman from Domino’s Petcare for constant support, boundless energy (and fabulous family); my own family – Tim and Emily Carrington; Keith Gray, David and Shelley Lovesay, Mary Bridgewater, Joy Webb. And to the many people who travelled from villages and towns far and wide to help out, in the absence of sufficient local volunteers. An especial thanks to Unique Pets in Ducks Farm Court who donated all of the goody bags – amazingly generous; to Hampden Vets who have been very generous every year. And of course to all of the owners who show up, and make it (honestly) the best day in the year, simply by being there and allowing us to enjoy their lovely dogs. A cheque for £180 is winging its way to each of the charities (Hearing Dogs and Medical Detection Dogs). Could You run the Dog Show next year? I’m hanging up my boots. It is a huge thing, now, and it needs someone with more energy than I have to run it. Every year, I put an ad in Coldharbour News asking for local volunteers to give up an hour or two, and every year I get exactly zero responses. Which makes me even more grateful for those listed above, especially those who come from Devon, Hardwick and other far flung places to help out at our local show …. I’m happy to offer advice, to pass along all the bits and pieces you need, and a checklist to help. I really hope that someone does take it on…….someone just like you?

Patricia Gurton Head Teacher An exciting new approach to the reduction of inequalities in child development, and to improve readiness for school is being launched by Bearbrook and Elmhurst Schools as part of Buckinghamshire County Council’s strategy to improve prospects for children and their families. The two schools have been working in partnership with Buckinghamshire County Council to create an Early Years Excellence Hub, which will incorporate the existing children’s centres and both schools’ early years’ teams. From 1 October 2014 the management of the Children’s Centres at Coldharbour and Elmhurst will be transferred to Bearbrook and Elmhurst Schools. The creation of the Early Years Excellence Hub will provide: • Help and support to families and carers who will be at the heart of this new approach; • High quality provision from pre-birth to age 5 and beyond, which is easily accessible to parents; We are very lucky to have a very hardworking PTA who raise lots of money to support the school. Most recently they have funded an exciting opportunity for all our KS2 pupils. With their help we have been able to buy a • Integrated services for children and families from pre-birth to age 5. Yoga The Early Years Excellence Hub will operate throughout the year and will work with partner agencies to provide universal support for all families and targeted support for vulnerable families. Many existing services will stay the same but the local needs of the catchment areas of Elmhurst, Watermead, Coldharbour and Oxford Road will be explored to decide on new services. Services will be designed with partners and families to meet their needs and to provide the support they need. A launch day for the Early Years Excellence Hub took place on Friday 10th October at the Elmhurst site and was enjoyed by all. This is an exciting initiative, welcomed by both governing bodies and they will work with all local partner agencies to strengthen the current services and to widen the reach of the new Excellence Hub’s services.
