Welcome to the July issue of the Arrow! We are now coming towards the end of the academic year, exams have finished and we await for the results in August. Hopefully all our children achieve the results they have worked for and all have places to go to in September. I will be awaiting nervously for my daughters results, but whatever the outcome I know she has tried her hardest and that is all I asked for. September brings college and driving lessons, another stepping stone into adult life! The big event of the Isle, RESCUE DAY will be held on 8th July at 7 Lakes Country Park. A fantastic day for the whole family. Lets hope the sun shines! Last year the event was cancelled due to the weather. Such a shame with all the hard work put into such a big event. The deadline for the August issue is Tuesday 11th July for distribution by the 1st August. If you are interested in advertising please be in touch before the date.

Latest news from the Old Rectory, Epworth We are now into the 4th month of this season and as busy as ever. We had a very successful event with our Country Fayre. It was well attended by community groups discussing and demonstrating their individual interest areas. The younger members of the community really enjoyed the contacts they were able to make with all the animals on display, and for the first time ever, our refreshments team ran out of cake. We still have lots of things happening in the future including our play about Susanna Wesley, titled "Susanna Wesley, This was your life," A spin on the old TV programme "This is your life." It is a combined church effort and is to be held in St Andrew's Church on the evening of July 23rd. This isn't going to be out only foray into the dramatic arts as there is a production of Shakespeare's "Midsummer Night's Dream" on the main lawn in August. Get your tickets early and plan your picnic tea - there will be lots of space in the garden to picnic prior to the performance so you can arrive in plenty of time for opening speeches. Lots of groups have booked in this year with three of them being choirs so we can look forward to a very musical summer. Our musical summer was kick started by Epworth Music Day which is always well attended and we had a full day's programme for that. Full information of all our events can be found on our Website and Facebook pages. Gillian Crawley, our manager, Kate, another of our volunteers, and I went along to the recently formed Isle branch of U3A to give a talk on what it's like behind the scenes of the museum, which was well received. There is nearly as much going on behind the scenes as there is in the public eye as many of the volunteers have more than one role which they fulfil. If we didn't enjoy it, of course, we wouldn't do it, although at times it can be very frustrating. One of our main frustrations is the fact that we still need volunteers willing to fill the spaces in the team. If you think you can fill one of those spaces and have three or four hours to spare on just one day each week, do come and talk to us, we're a friendly bunch and love to make new friends. No need to worry about skills as training for any role is provided on site. Come in to see Gillian, or give her a call on 01427 872268. You'll be made welcome.

PGL 2017
May half term saw a record 45 students attending our annual trip to PGL at Caythorpe Court in Lincolnshire. This is always a fantastic trip, allowing students an amazing opportunity to take part in some adventurous, exciting and exhilarating outdoor activities that they wouldn’t get to experience in school. We spent four days and three nights (sleeping under canvas) at Caythorpe, and every waking minute was filled with confidence boosting activities, football and rounders on the sports field and sitting down to three terrific meals each day. The tasks were very challenging and it was great to see students working together to conquer their fears and encourage each other to complete very demanding challenges that they never dreamed they would be able to experience. The Vertical Challenge was an activity where the students had to climb upwards on rope ladders, tyres and a climbing wall in order to try and get to the top. Teamwork was very important as they were responsible for each other’s safety: as the students climbed, others had the responsibility to belay for them (which they were all trained to do beforehand). Quad biking proved very popular, allowing students to try their hand at off road biking on a specially designed track. All Aboard tested the students ability to climb up a vertical pole and balance together on a very small platform. An old favourite, Trapeze, is a test of mind over matter where students climb to the top of a high pole, but at the top they then must jump to catch and hang on to a trapeze. Incredible! PGL wouldn’t be the same without the Giant Swing and High Ropes. The screams from our students on the Giant Swing echoed throughout Lincolnshire and, apparently, could be heard back in Crowle! Other exciting activities included abseiling, a
challenge course, fencing and a climbing wall. All in all, the weekend was a fantastic success, and everybody (students and staff) had an incredible experience. Each student was awarded an individual certificate for their effort, participation and teamwork. One group was awarded a special prize for encouraging each other and showing incredible determination to ensure that every member of the group completed every activity possible! All together now: ‘A chicken has a wing, a chicken has two wings. A chicken has a leg…’ Written by Mr C Thompson
