Funeral of Wendy Miers Tuesday 10th June 2pm

The funeral of Wendy Miers will take place at St Giles Church, Dallington on Tuesday 10th June at 2pm. All who knew her are welcome to attend. If you live outside the village and would be able to car share that would be helpful.  Either flowers or donations to the church in memory of Wendy would be appreciated.
Following the burial in the churchyard, Wendy’s daughter Samantha has invited guests for refreshments at her house near Framfield. Samantha would be grateful if you could phone or email her if you would like to attend and she will give you directions.

He would love to hear of any war-time stories covering such subjects as evacuees, school life, farming changes, the war in the skies, troops billeted in the parish, the Home Guard, rationing, local entertainment and any other wartime topic that will be of interest to the residents of Dallington.

School Governor Opportunity

Woodlands Federation LogoWANTED!

Someone who would like to make a difference in the lives of local children.

We are looking for someone to join Woodlands Federation Governing Board.

As a governor you will be a volunteer who makes a vital contribution to the success of our schools. All that is needed is commitment, a willingness to be part of a team and an ability to ask questions!

Woodlands Federation Governing Board is made up of governors from all walks of life, with a range of different backgrounds, skills and experiences, but they all work together for the benefit of the schools in the federation – Punnetts Town Community Primary and Nursery School and Dallington C of E Primary School.

What can we offer?
  • A chance to develop new skills and knowledge. Everyone has access to further free training to help build on existing skills or to develop new ones.
  • An opportunity to collaborate with our team of governors and staff, all of whom are passionate about providing the very best primary education for all our children.
  • A sense of achievement in making a difference to our schools

The full Governing Board meets six to eight times per year. Governors also use their identified skills and expertise in the Finance Committee and in working groups, which are created from time to time, these have a specific focus and report back to the full Governing Board.

This role may be particularly of interest if you have skills in finance, human resources or premises management, but we invite applications from anyone who is interested in helping the schools be the best they can be. You must be eighteen or over, and if appointed agree to an enhanced DBS check being completed.

If you are interested and would like to find out more, please contact our Chair of Governors, Monica Pell by email m.pell@woodlandsfederation.org.uk

Woodlands Federation is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff, governors and volunteers to share in this commitment. All posts are subject to appropriate vetting procedures and a satisfactory Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check.
