Big Spring Clean, Robert Shaw Primary School

Big Spring Clean, Nottingham 2009

An event being planned this year is at Robert Shaw Primary School on the 21st April 2009

http://www.robertshawschool.co.uk/index.asp

A group of the school children, members of the Residents Association and a member of the local police team plan on doing a spring clean around the perimeter of the school clearing litter and removing fallen branches and twigs.

The school is a major part of the Ainsley Estate as the estate is small, only consisting of about 460 properties. This effort on everyones part should give the school grounds the benefit of a clean and tidy appearance, something for the pupils to be proud of.

Best West Community Awards

The event tonight was a presentation for the money awarded for applications for community projects. It was great to see people being allocated money to benefit their community without having to jump through so many hoops and around so many obstacles so for a bit of cash.

The application was straight forward, the money was low in relative terms to council budgets but will at least the money goes to groups trying to make a difference and care about the community they live in.

The evening was a excellant night out at the Ballroom of the Nottingham Council House.
