Editors Letter... There
is a fabulous rumour that this summer will be a hot
one, having just enjoyed 5 continuous days of
sunshine in May, we can live in hope! However,
before we get carried away with the dizzy heights
of the 80‘s... the forecast for the bank holiday
weekend and half term break, as I write this
editorial... looks bleak. Fingers crossed they got it
wrong!
Auckley Show fever hits us once again, we are two
months away from one of the annual highlights of
village life and the committee are working hard on
finalising their plans. We have an update, provided
by the Chair of the Committee, Neil Woodward,
on events for this years show. We also have the
schedule for the show, so if you are planning on entering any of the competitions, you should find all
the information you need.
Sunday 6th June, Stafforce Recruitment hold their
4th Annual charity event at Hayfield Lakes, this
promises to be a fun filled day for all the family.
You can find more information of this event in this
month‘s Arrow.
It‘s official, our new neighbours—the lions at YWP
are the new stars of Branton! Visit them this half
term and give them a warm Yorkshire welcome!
This months issue of the Arrow will be distributed
to Blaxton. Once a quarter, residents in Blaxton
will benefit from the Arrow being delivered to their
door free of charge. If anyone in Blaxton has
any news or information for the Arrow,
please let me know by early August in
readiness for the September issue.
The deadline for the July issue of the Arrow
is Wednesday 21st June. Once again, thank
you to everyone who contributes articles
and provides information for the villages as
well as the advertisers who continually
support the Arrow.
Best Wishes

Police Clampdown on
Domestic Burglary Police in Doncaster are reinforcing and continuing
the fight against people who commit burglaries.
Operation Account has been set up to take place
over the next eight weeks to drive down burglary
and to target people who continue to commit
burglary offences.
Burglary dwellings in Doncaster have reduced by
16% in the past year however, there has been a
slight increase in the south of the borough during
April. Police continue to remind home owners that
they can still do more to stop burglaries.
Detective Inspector Steve Whittaker from the
Priority Crime Team in Doncaster said, "We all
have our part to play in reducing offences of
burglary. Although crime levels are at an all time
low, we are urging home owners to be more
vigilant.‖
Advice to be more vigilant includes making sure
alarms are working and set and that car keys are
kept out of view in the home to deter
opportunistic thieves.
Detective Inspector Whittaker added, ―South
Yorkshire Police take offences of burglary
extremely seriously and we will do everything we
can to prevent and detect burglaries. If we suspect
you of committing crime, we will do everything in
our power to bring you to justice. Patrols in the
area have been increased with a view to disrupting
as much criminal behaviour as possible."
The police will continue to reassure the public and
seek the publics support during this operation and
thereafter, to ensure that burglary offences are
driven down.
Police would ask the public to always report
any suspicious behaviour or activity to the
police on 0114 2202020, or via crimestoppers
on 0800 555 111. All information will be dealt
with in the strictest of confidence.

We would like to congratulate
our son Mark Phillips on his
Promotion to Captain. He is
formally from Branton and Finningley and went to
Branton C/E and Hayfields Schools. He started
army life at 16 (13 if you count Cadets) in Junior
Leaders and has worked his way up through the
ranks. Also completing very hard physical
Commando training and earning his Green Beret.
Well done from Mum and Dad and everyone who
knows him.
Race Night At the Harvey
Arms. The decision to hold a Race Night to raise funds
for the Finningley Village Fun Day proved to
be a winner. All the worries about whether we
would get any support vanished into the blue as
the room rapidly filled with chatting people, some
a little nervous having never been to such an event
before, but all obviously out to enjoy themselves.
The members of the Finningley Village
Community Group still glanced nervously at
each other. Was everything in place , had they
forgotten anything?
Then we were off!
Eric kept everything moving well, the punters
placed their bets, shouted encouragement to their
chosen horse and cheered or groaned as the
winner passed the post.
The Pie and peas served by Eric, Gordon and their
staff were consumed and enjoyed and the punters
gathered at the start line for the second set of
races on the card.
All in all the evening proved a great success.
Our thanks must go out to the generous
supporters, the many many people who supported
us by sponsoring races, owners, and jockeys. All
those who provided us with prizes for our raffle or
who simply said I can't attend but take this as a
donation. They are too many to mention here but
we did mention them all on our Race programme.
Our thanks must also to the Harvey Arms who
gave us the venue and their time, and all members
of the community group who worked and
supported the event throughout. Last, but
certainly not least, we must thank all those
people who came along and gave so willingly, who
cheered the evening on to be such a success and
without whom the event would have been a non-
starter. Congratulations to you all! The exact
figure is not in yet, but the sum you helped raise
will go along way to meet the needs and expenses
of the Fun Day
Thank you.

St Georges Day
Parade Attended by
over 1000 scouting
groups in the
region. Beavers, Cubs and Scouts from The 58th
Doncaster Scout group, based in
Cantley, took part in the St Georges Day
Parade on Sunday 25th April. Watching
our young people, proudly marching
through Doncaster town centre to the
sound of the band playing was fantastic.
The groups all filed into church followed
by the procession of Colours. The
Minister welcomed everyone to
celebrate membership of the worldwide
fellowship of Scouts and to give thanks to God followed by prayers, readings and hymns.
Everyone left St Georges Minster singing the National Anthem, however, there was now a monsoon to
welcome everyone but it didn‘t dampen our spirits! As we arrived back at base, everyone from parents,
cub leaders, beavers, cubs and scouts were absolutely soaked through. Here‘s to another successful St
Georges Day Parade and let‘s hope the sun shines ‗all day‘ next year.
If anyone is interested in
scouting log on to
www.58thscouts.org.uk for more
details.

Flowers for Someone Special Do you know someone special?
Someone who has gone the extra mile for others or
someone who just deserves something nice. ‗We would like to request a 'Bouquet for Someone Special' for Edna Dimbleby of Auckley. Edna is a
lovely lady who is very kind and thoughtful of others, she is always cheerful and helpful. Edna has been
battling with various eye problems for several years, and is having regular injections into her eye to save
her sight. Despite this she never complains and continues to be involved in things, always putting others
first. She really deserves a beautiful scented bouquet to show her how much she is appreciated. In
addition to this, on 18 June Edna and her husband Ron celebrate their 61st wedding anniversary. We
wish them both many more happy years together. From all your friends.‘
The Arrow and Petalsflorist would love to send
someone special a bouquet. Also, listen to Trax FM
to hear ‗Someone Special‘ in the morning!

flowers last
month after being

Airport
There have been more flights in and out of the airport of late, one of the reasons being that Easyjet now fly
from there to several destinations. Even with the change of regulations to allow QC4 aircraft to fly at
night, the Parish Council has not been made aware of any serious increase in night-time noise.
Police
Due to the increased use of the airport, the police officers stationed there can no longer be utilised to patrol
the surrounding villages. The area from Old Cantley village, Branton, Auckley (including the former
„camp‟), Blaxton and through to Finningley village will now come under one PC based at Rossington, with
the assistance of one PCSO.
The PACT (Police and Community Together) meetings which have been held in the various villages
covered by the police at the airport and changed location each month, are henceforth to be held at Bawtry
and Tickhill only; the name is also being changed to “Have Your Say”. Why the villages have been cut out
we have not been informed, but protests will be made.
Playing Field Shelter
Petitions were presented to Doncaster MBC planning department against the installation of a shelter on the
playing field. A further petition, signed by users of the field, was presented in favour of having it. Both
views were amongst the various factors taken into account when the planning department decided to
approve the installation of the shelter. It should be noted that this facility is intended for all users of the
field, not just a particular age group or type of user.

Resignation of Parish Councillor
Council is sorry to lose Mrs. Lynn Allwood who has resigned from the Council due to work and
family commitments. Mrs. Allwood has played an active and enthusiastic part in the affairs of the
Council, particularly in organising the 2009 Senior Citizens‘ outing. .
As a result of the resignation, a vacancy on the Council now exists and a new member will be co-
opted onto the Council at the next meeting on 9th June 2010.
Any eligible person wishing to be considered for the post should write to the Clerk, the application
to be received no later than 12 noon on Tuesday 8th June 2010. An eligible person is one who
resides in or within 3 miles of the Auckley Parish, or has his/her main place of work within the
Parish.
Proposed New Play Equipment
The ‗Play Builder‘ Scheme is a government-funded project, implemented by Doncaster Council staff,
to provide play equipment in a natural setting. Auckley‘s Riverside Park is one of several areas in
the Doncaster Borough to benefit from the scheme. DMBC recently carried out a consultation
exercise at Riverside Park and in the local schools to ascertain what play equipment children wished
to see on Riverside Park.
Additional recreational items will be provided from Section 106 monies and Parish Council funds.
Hopefully the scheme will be implemented by the end of the current financial year.
Dog Fouling
The majority of dog owners clean up after their dogs. However, there are a few irresponsible
owners who allow their dogs to foul pavements and recreation grounds, and Council would remind
these owners that allowing dogs to foul without cleaning up after them is an offence and they are
liable to be fined. Dog waste bins are sited at various sites in the Parish, i.e. at Riverside Park, the
Spey Drive play area and the Hayfield Estate, and it would be appreciated if these bins could be used.
Auckley Show
The Village Show will be held on Saturday, 14th August at the Riverside Park. Council has agreed to
make a financial contribution towards this event, and wishes the Show Committee every success on
the day.
New Parish Councillor
A warm welcome is extended to Mrs. Julia Staniforth, a resident of Auckley, who has recently been
co-opted onto the Council following the resignation of Mr. Peter Cockett.

Due to a recent change in legislation it is only possible for residents of the parish to petition for a review to be undertaken. If any residents are interested in seeking a review please contact the Julia Staniforth (Clerk to the Council) to obtain further information. Community Developments A new footpath has been provided leading from the rear of the new Community building to the play area in order to improve access particularly in wet weather. A new notice board has been provided for Warning Tongue Lane so residents in the area can now access all the parish council information. Dog Fouling – Please Remember this is an Offence! Dog fouling is continuing to increase in spite of previous requests, creating a serious health and safety risk. All dog owners are asked to ensure that when dogs foul any public area it is collected, wrapped and disposed of in the dog litter bins provided. Thank you to the dog walkers along Kilham Lane for using the new dog litter bin provided. Annual Parish Council Meeting Gillian Warrender and Jennifer Worthington were elected as Chairman and Vice-Chairman respectively at the annual parish council meeting on 5 May 2010.

News from Branton St Wilfrid’s C.E. Primary School The Summer term has been busy as usual with many activities and events to enrich our
curriculum.
Class 5 Visit Austerfield
Field Study Centre
Class 5 visited Austerfield
Field Study Centre as part
of their geography and
science studies. In the
morning they learned about
the water cycle and the
importance of saving water
on our planet. They played a
water cycle game which
involved wearing hats with labels depicting various stages of the cycle. Pretend water had
to be delivered to the next person in the cycle and there was much hilarity when Queen
Victoria became part of the cycle and visited her royal lavatory! Next Class 5 went to the
quarry to create their own river system using containers of rain water which were poured
downhill. They watched the water travel over the waterfall, through the gorge, into the
valley then to the flood plain and onwards to the sea. After a break for lunch and the
important visit to the shop, Class 5 travelled to the River Idle where they measured the
rate of flow of the river using dog biscuits as „Pooh sticks.‟ (The fish later enjoyed a tasty
snack). The day was expertly led by the Austerfield staff and the children thoroughly
enjoyed their „hands on‟ learning experiences.
“Cinder – Ellie goes to the Hoe-Down”
Class 6 Drama Group presented their production of “Cinder – Ellie goes to the Hoe-Down” to
the whole school and invited adults. The story is the traditional tale of Cinderella but with a
Wild West twist. The children told the story through a combination of drama, singing and
dance. We had Ugly Sisters
Cactus and Grizzly with attitude,
cowboys, dancing girls, a very
smelly „Fairy Godmother‟, and
French and Red Indian narrators.
A twist at the end involving a spell
cast on Cinder-Ellie‟s boot meant
Yippers, the Buttons character,
was the one who won Cinder-Ellie‟s
hand in marriage. The children
performed brilliantly and looked
fantastic in their home created
costumes. Well done Drama Group!

Class R Visit to the Yorkshire Wildlife Park
Class R thoroughly enjoyed their recent visit
to the Yorkshire Wildlife Park. As well as
touring the park, Class R had an animal
handling session-which involved stroking a
snake and a bearded dragon. Class R
persuaded Mrs Crayton to be brave and take
part, so I have now stroked a snake! The
children showed great interest in the animals
and we were very impressed with the
children‟s knowledge as they looked around.
Children even got the opportunity to feed the
animals by hand (and yes, our anti-bacterial
hand wash was at the ready afterwards!!)
Class 4 Archery Day
As part of their project on Castles Class 4
had some surprise visitors to school, as you
can read in Scarlett‟s writing below:
When I walked into the classroom I got a big surprise as everyone was staring at two medieval people standing in our classroom, one was dressed like an archer and one like a knight. They started telling us about medieval weapons, and even showed us some. Later I got to wear the knight‟s armour! It‟s really heavy but I‟m happy I tried it on. After lunch we did some archery and everyone enjoyed it. It was a brilliant day at school. Scarlett, Class 4
Following the interest shown by the children during the Archery day,
we have now started a new Archery Club after school, to add to our
list of extra-curricular activities.

News from Hayfield Lane Primary School
Our children have had a very busy and rewarding month with exciting and
educational visits out of school,
the Young Writers competition
and several fun and informative
visitors in school.
Years 1 & 2 visit to Conisborough
Castle
Years 1 & 2 enjoyed an historical visit to
Conisborough Castle and church as part of
their Take One Picture project. They were
given a tour around the castle and walked to
the church. Some of the children were
surprised to learn that the castle is over 800
years old (nearly as old as the teachers!!) In
the afternoon they had a great time dressing
up in medieval clothing and testing out old
fashioned forms of punishment, although the
teachers were not brave enough to try out
the stocks.
Year 1 Pedestrian Training
The Road Safety Education Unit joined
several parents and children from year 1 to
highlight pedestrian road safety. The
children donned high visibility jackets and
headed out on to Hayfield Lane. They were
shown how to cross the roads correctly,
finding safe places and looking both ways.
They were then taken to the pedestrian
crossing where they learned about the ‗Red Man‘ and the ‗Green Man‘. When they
returned to school, they excitedly shared
what they had learned with the rest of the
school.
Year 4 Cycle training
As many of our children now use their bikes
to cycle to school, we invited Bike It Tom
to school to give some of our pupils
valuable cycle training. They were taught
braking skills, the importance of wearing a
helmet and how to ride a bike safely and
considerately on the roads. They were also
given some tips on how to look after their
bikes.
To advertise please call 07795 387937 or 01302 534256 37
Crucial Crew
A fantastic time was had by our year 6
children when they visited Magna. They took
part in the Crucial Crew workshop which is
run by the South Yorkshire Police. During
the afternoon they were involved in role
play where they had to act out scenarios
dealing with anti social behaviour, drugs
awareness and bullying. The children felt that
they had gained valuable skills and found it
very interesting and lots of fun to work with
the police.
Young Writers competition winners
We were very proud to learn this week that
several of our Key Stage 2 pupils have been
successful in the Young Writers latest
Creative Writing competition, fighting off
fierce competition from hundreds of schools
in the Yorkshire region. The children were asked to create a mini saga but could use no
more that 50 words. We had some
wonderful stories from all of our children
and they really let their imaginations run
wild. The winners were given a certificate
and their work will go in to a book entitled
Tiny Treasures Tales from Yorkshire, a copy
of which will be kept at the British library as
well as other libraries across the UK. Well
done to our budding novelists.

Cantley and Branton Cricket Club Update I have received several tit bits of information about the
Club. In the last Issue of the Arrow I printed a letter from Don Fox about it. According to Ronald Nutall
of Branton he remembers being asked to play occasionally as a young man of about 15 (about 1938) and
that the Cricket Ground in fact moved several times. He remembers it was initially in the field to the right
as you now cross the M18 Motorway Bridge heading to Doncaster, which in fact would have placed it
directly behind the former Primary School, where there is now a large new house on the traffic island
corner, as you turn to go into Old Cantley.
In later years it moved to a site about where the McCauley Catholic Senior School main building is now. It
later moved to another possible un-recollected site, and finally ended up opposite St Wilfrids Church
where Don Fox remembered it being. We still have no information about when it was formed or closed.
Ronald remembers some of the 1938 period team members as being Gerry Walls, Bill Tatham, Tom
Collins, Artie Binns, Frank Hamilton, Ken Bullock, Ted Badger and Frank Badger.
Since we now know the names of some
team members does anyone have any
old photos of the team of any period
that we could copy. I still have to get
back to a couple of people who have
more information.
The Workings of an Old Water
Mill
In an earlier issue of the Arrow I
discussed the strong possibility of there
having been a Water Mill on the west
bank of the River Torne south of the
Auckley Bridge, I have just come across
this image of a 17-18th Century Water
Mill, could our Mill have looked like
this?

Five tips to prepare your car for summer
Dear readers, After a long winter of wear and tear through snow, salt and potholes - and volcanic dust - your car will be
in need of a little TLC. Being prepared for the summer and making checks now can save you a lot of
money in the long run.
Try to deal with any minor problems and repairs as they happen, as they can become very expensive if left
to build up over time.
Here are five tips to prepare your car:
rusting if left on the bodywork. If possible take your car to a car wash that specializes in
under-car cleaning to get rid of every trace.
your car‟s pollen filter annually is a vital investment. Keeping your air-con well maintained will help, too.
-con will help your car smell better. If it smells stale when you turn the heating on, it could
well be a sign that mould is building up in your condenser.
headlamps when you stop for fuel is also important as
windscreen wipers won‟t get rid of all the fly debris.
leave marks on the windscreen, so
remember to replace them regularly. After the dust that
has fallen from the volcanic ash
cloud, it is particularly important that you clean them
regularly to avoid damaging your
windscreen.
Certain checks should be made regardless of the
season: Anti-freeze
contains corrosion inhibitors so you should keep
your car topped up with the right mixture all year
round; going without could lead to expensive
internal damage such as a blown head gasket.

the courses that we offer, you‘ll be able to find this

Exterminate…
Exterminate…
Saturday nights in the 70‘s were usually spent hiding behind
the settee as the Daleks did battle with Dr Who. Sadly the
series came to an end, so imagine my delight when a new Dr
Who came to our screens years later. Now my own children
could hide behind the settee…they didn‘t! I also had a new
favourite Dr, move over Tom Baker, David Tenant is in
town! Then disaster struck, his time had come to an end
and I was genuinely sad. What would the new actor be like?
Why did it have to change? It won‘t be like it used to be! I
was angry, and determined not to turn on the TV and watch the new Dr!
Thinking about the time lord, I also began thinking about the Lord of Time – God. There was a song in the
60‘s by the Byrds with the line ―Turn, turn, turn‖ The words taken exactly from Ecclesiastes 3
“There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven: a time to be born and a time to die, a
time to plant and a time to uproot, a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to tear down and a time to build, a
time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance, a time to scatter stones and a time to
gather them, a time to embrace and a time to refrain, a time to search and a time to give up, a time to keep and
a time to throw away, a time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and a time to speak, a time to love
and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace.”
Could there really be a time for war, to kill, to hate? Surely our life is meant to be merciful, compassionate
and filled with love; these things do not make sense. How about a time to break down or weep? Shouldn‘t
we be rejoicing and building up? But, there are also inappropriate times for laughter and love. I think hu-
man beings often chosen the wrong times and reasons for many of these things. We fight over the wrong
causes, we love the wrong things, we keep things
that are corrupt and reject that which is eternal. We
break down relationships and weep over things with
no real value. We embrace that which will harm us
and cast away that which will make us better.
The chorus of the Byrds‘ song went, “To everything
(turn, turn, turn) There is a season (turn, turn, turn) And
a time for every purpose, under heaven.‖ „Turn‟ is for me
the key word. I believe we need turn back to God,
learn how to discern His will and way so that we will
live as God would have us to live, experiencing things
at the appropriate time and in the appropriate place.
He does have a season and a purpose for everything,
and He will guide us in the right way.

P.S. I did „turn‟ the TV on, and I‟m very much enjoying
the new Dr. But don‟t get me started on the new
Daleks. I don‟t like them at all, they look like they
were made in partnership by Lego and IKEA!
