We go Shaun the Sheep crazy this September as we peek behind the scenes of the new movie (P6), in preparation for Shaun’s big year in 2015, when he features in a schools design challenge and an arts trail. We also explore a range of topics high on parents’ priority list, from online safety (P21) to the best way to approach choosing your child’s secondary school. Our Open Days feature (P16) arms you with all the right questions to ask. On a personal note, I’m really excited as I become a primary school dad this year. My four-year-old, Joe, takes his first steps at school, so good luck to him, his classmates and all the other children starting their educational journey this month. In association

The Everyman Theatre, Cheltenham, lays on a feast of fun with its annual pantomime, Sleeping Beauty, this autumn.
T
he summer holidays may have just ended but, behind the scenes, the Everyman has already turned its attention to preparing for its annual pantomime, “Oh yes it has!” This year the theatre presents a perennial favourite, ‘Sleeping Beauty’. Back to cause more mayhem is Tweedy the clown, fresh from a season touring with Giffords Circus. And starring as Sleeping Beauty herself is Eleanor Brown, making her Everyman Theatre debut. Alongside Tweedy and Eleanor will be many familiar faces, including William Elliott as the Dame, Kelli Maybank as Prince Charming, and Wendy Abrahams as the Good Fairy. Geoffrey Rowe, chief executive of the Everyman says, “Eleanor was picked from over 25 hopeful young actresses for the part. She

Shaun to be
wild
As ‘Shaun the Sheep Movie’ prepares to wow families next year, Frances Stewart gets a glimpse of the frenetic activity behind the scenes.
E
arly one Thursday morning, a taxi drops me off in a nondescript business park near Aztec West. I begin to wonder if I ‘m in the right place, or if I’m the victim of a strange practical joke. I ‘m here for a studio tour of Aardman Animations’ newest project ‘Shaun the Sheep Movie’, scheduled for release in February next year. Surely, an internationally renowned animation company making a Hollywood movie would be based somewhere more glamorous? Eventually, I spot an ‘Aardman Animations’ sign on a vast, unprepossessing shed-like building. But inside it’s a different story. I’m ushered into a room packed with displays of Aardman’s many awards. Posters of previous blockbusters adorn the walls, and a table of international Shaun the Sheep merchandise is a sight to behold. But what really grabs my attention is the genuine passion and enthusiasm of the people who work here. This becomes increasingly evident as the tour progresses. Everyone from the model makers to the directors and producers love what they do
with an utterly infectious passion. Shaun made his screen debut, I learn, in Aardman’s third Wallace and Gromit short film, 1995’s ‘A Close Shave’. It was only a six minute appearance but long enough to propel him into the hearts of the nation. Aardman co-founder Dave Sproxton jokes, “It was partially as a result of Baby Spice being photo-

graphed wearing a Shaun the Sheep rucksack.” However, Shaun’s appeal has endured as he recently topped the poll of favourite BBC children’s characters of the past 70 years so it’s hardly a surprise that he now takes centre stage in his own feature film. ‘Shaun The Sheep Movie’ will see our woolly hero and his flock enter The Big City to fearlessly retrieve their farmer and rectify life on the farm after a harmless prank goes wrong. We are treated to a short introduction to the film and the Shaun heritage by Sproxton and producer Paul Kewley. Sproxton is visibly pleased with the movie’s progress and points out that Aardman “started as a kitchen table hobby in 1976” and is now globally acclaimed. Kewley talks us through the plot, explaining that Aardman has remained faithful to the original concept of Shaun as a non-speaking character, which certainly presents its challenges over a feature-length film. However, with expressive “baaa”-ing from Shaun and his flock, bemused mumbling from the farmer and stern “ruffs” from Bitzer the sheep dog, the dialogue will almost certainly be more entertaining than some movie
scripts we could think of. As director Mark Burton remarks, the style of humour is undeniably slapstick so words aren’t always necessary. Next up, is the studio tour. The amount of effort put into the models is astonishing. As one model maker remarks, it is very much a labour of love. We are shown some of the clothes worn by the sheep and I‘m sorely disillusioned when I discover that they are not all little plasticine items. Nowadays, a more hi-tech foam latex is used, while senior model maker Anne King explains that using solid moulds is much better for continuity, as several pieces of the same item will be exactly the same size in every scene. But plasticine still has its place with an array of farm animals used in the film. We’re shown an impressive street scene whose buildings stand about four feet tall. It’s packed with detail: there’s a miniature ATM machine in the wall of one building, tiny black bin bags tied up on the pavement, even miniature stickers stuck in a bedroom window. Art director Matt Perry says that the film has “an ultrarealistic feel to it. But it’s our job to make sure that you don’t really notice all this detail. It should just fit in.” As we continue around the studio, more details reveal themselves miniature graffiti under a motorway bridge, hanging baskets outside a fancy restaurant and a bicycle propped up against a wall. Over a cup of tea, directors Richard Starzak and Burton, and producers Julie Lockhart and Kewley muse over the changing audience of animated films. Starzak and Burton both agree that whenever they make a film, they always want to make something that they themselves will find entertaining. And that’s the magic of Aardman; offering stories both childlike yet nuanced, broad yet detailed. Everyone is invited to join in.

A
door
to the future
It’s vital to be well informed before deciding on a new school for your child. Frances Stewart discovers how to get the most out of school open days.
E
very autumn, hoards of parents and prospective pupils descend on secondary schools for their open days. These are exciting glimpses into the future, as a large chunk of a child’s school life is spent in secondary school, so choosing the right one can seem like a monumental decision. However, if approached with a sense of curiosity and interest, open days have a lot to offer. Poring over school websites, studying results tables and asking fellow parents for advice can provide a wealth of information, but often the only reliable way to help your child decide on a new school is by visiting in person. An open day really gives parents and children a chance to gauge the feel of a learning environment. Sophie Morris, former student at The Red Maids’ School in Bristol, found that, “The atmosphere of the school when I went to visit really appealed to me and helped me make up my mind.” Although a parent’s role at an open day is important, the child is really the indicator of whether or not the school is the right place for them, which Sarah Harris, head of marketing at The Dragon School, Oxford, agrees. “At an open day, while parents talk to the teachers and ask questions, children can explore the school and meet other pupils.” At The Dragon School open days, she says, there are separate activities for parents and children. “When the parents go to the Headmaster’s talk and Q&A session, the children are all taken swimming, or to another activity.” So, open days are clearly events for the whole family rather than just for parents. An open day can benefit hugely from forward planning. Sandra Morris, Sophie’s mother, says, “Although we didn’t always have specific questions to ask,

Dauntsey’s School, Devizes
we made a point of attending the headteacher’s talk at every school. This usually covered everything that we wanted to know.” As Sarah Harris points out, “You should never be shy about asking questions. And, even if you don’t have your own questions, it is often helpful to listen to questions of other prospective parents at open days.” Arguably, the main area that benefits from the most exploration at an open day is academic achievement. Results tables are not always reliable indicators of how well your child will do at a
certain school so it’s important to consider your child’s academic abilities and find a school that will nurture and improve them. Talking to the teachers and pupils is a reliable way to discover whether the classroom environment will suit your child. Also, look at the facilities the school offers and see what range of clubs they have on offer as extracurricular activities enrich and add variety to school life. If you know exactly what you want to gain from an open day, it can offer a special insight into school life.
Do’s and don’ts
DO be guided by your child. Do they look interested in the school? Are they overwhelmed by the size? DON’T do all the talking on your child’s behalf. As they will eventually be the ones attending, encourage them to ask questions and talk to teachers and current pupils. DO plan your visit with your child. Discuss what you want to gain from the visit and what you want to find out. It can be useful to plan a small list of questions before you go. DON’T try to shorten the length of your visit. See every available classroom, sit through any presentations made by staff and talk to as many pupils as possible. The more information you can gain, the more informed your final decision will be.

d r a o b n Pi Drama at Dauntsey’s
When it comes to drama, Dauntsey’s is unique, not only for the range and quality of its performing arts but also because it keeps standards so high while offering opportunities to all pupils, and not only those with the talent and ambition to pursue a career in this most competitive of fields. Dauntsey’s has staged youth or amateur premieres of a string of big name musicals, including ‘Evita’, ‘Cats’, ‘Miss Saigon’ and most recently ‘Mamma Mia’, thanks to its West End connections. These connections have undoubtedly opened doors but the quality of the productions has kept them open. Drama is part of the fabric of life at the school. Pupils can come in covered with mud straight off the rugby pitch, ready to change mental gear and get involved in an entirely different activity. And everyone who tries it finds it’s a lot of fun.

news, education & contacts
Performances out of this world Perform is a unique type of children’s drama school. Focusing on child development, it uses a mix of drama, dance and singing, specially formulated to bring out every child’s true potential. Classes are kept small to ensure participants get lots of individual attention from the experienced actor/ teachers who focus on developing the ‘Four Cs’: confidence, communication, co-ordination and concentration. Next term’s theme is outer space, which takes children on an intergalactic adventure where they’ll shimmer with the sparkly spaceman, dance the zero gravity groove and meet the man in the moon as they go on a mission to save the universe. It’s going to be great fun as well as a unique learning experience for each child and the chance to make new friends. New classes are opening in September in Salisbury and any interested children are invited to try out the classes by attending a free trial session.

A fostering story Andrew joined Sally and David when he was five. He’d been severely neglected and in five months had experienced four foster placements. “When he arrived with us the impact of the neglect was very apparent,” says the couple. “He had difficulty walking and would often fall. His speech was extremely delayed also. Initially, the progress was slow and improvements were small. There were times when Andrew would regress, wanting us to reject him. “The training we received really helped us understand his behaviours. We still have difficult days, but these are outweighed by good days.” It’s now agreed that Andrew will live with Sally and David permanently, a huge relief for them all. If you want to make a difference to a child’s life, just as Sally and David have, get in touch with FosterPlus today. Ffi: FosterPlus W: www.fosterplus.co.uk

Individuality, creativity, excellence
Safer and smarter
This is a crucial time for parents with children in Years 5 and 6, as you make the important decision about which secondary school will be best for your child. Pewsey Vale is therefore inviting parents to its open evening on Wed 24 Sept at 6.30pm. This will be an opportunity for them to see the school’s first class facilities, talk to the teachers and experience the many demonstration activities taking place. You might have heard about Pewsey Vale’s impressive Ofsted inspection and the improvements it’s made in exam results over recent years. It’s also currently benefitting from major capital investments that will transform the ‘first impression’ of the school. Get along and see how the school ensures all pupils make excellent progress.
Swindon Borough Council is urging parents to consider “safer and smarter” journeys to school, perhaps leaving the car behind or parking away from school gates if they do drive. When children walk or cycle to school, says the council, families are concerned about the danger from traffic. School gates should be safe places, it says. Parking around the school gate poses a danger to children as they cannot easily see or be seen by moving vehicles on the road. It also causes congestion and unnecessary stress for parents and residents alike. If you are taking children to or from school , consider walking or cycling if you can, or if you still need to drive, consider sharing lifts with friends or ‘park & walk’ from somewhere safely away from the school gate. Your school may have their own ‘5 minute walk zone’ already set up. For the safety of your child, their friends and the local community, the council says, please park safely, legally and considerately around schools.

• From a “love rat” in ‘Coronation Street’ to King Rat in ‘Dick Whittington’, the Wyvern Theatre, Swindon, hosts one of the UK’s best known actors, Nigel Havers, as the baddie in its famous and enchanting pantomime, which runs from Sat 6 Dec to Sun 4 Jan. Nigel has been a star of stage and screen for 40 years and is well-known for a variety of roles. He starred recently as the unfaithful Lewis Archer in “Corrie”, for which he won Best Exit at the 2013 British Soap Awards. He also appeared in another of ITV’s top shows, when he starred in the Christmas Special of ‘Downton Abbey’. Also starring David Ashley as Sarah the Cook and Lucy Kane as Alice Fitzwarren, this production will be spectacularly brought to life with an abundance of comedy, stunning sets and fabulous costumes – plus, as you have come to expect from the Wyvern Theatre’s annual pantomime, Dick Whittington promises plenty of audience participation.

Stonar welcomes boys Prep parent Julie Hedley explains why she is sending her son to a former, newly co-ed, girls’ school • “Alexander joined Reception at Stonar Prep in 2011. Although his class initially had two boys and five girls, more boys have since joined. In September he moves up to Year 3, a class of 12 with a 50/50 boy/girl split. “When I asked him what he particularly enjoys about Stonar he said, ‘It is lots of fun, the teachers are very kind and I have lots of friends both in my class and throughout the school.’ What more could any parent ask for? “First, we chose Stonar Prep so that Alexander could share the wonderful, caring atmosphere which saw his two older sisters blossom. We also believe that children benefit from growing and learning in a coeducational environment as that better prepares them for life. “We are so pleased that Stonar has decided to admit boys to the Senior School from 2016. As Alexander loves sport, we look forward to seeing enough boys entering the Senior School to allow boys’ sports teams to compete with local schools. “We want Alexander to stay in the Stonar environment so he can thrive as a big fish in a smaller pond. The smaller size of the school and emphasis on every child fulfilling their potential is extremely appealing. Whether your child is academic, sporty, creative or any combination of these, we know that Stonar will provide the opportunities and guidance to fully utilise all their talents. This has to make for a more rounded and positive individual.” Ffi: Stonar School W: www.stonarschool.com

Shaftesbury School among the few to improve • Shaftesbury School is going from strength to strength. Ofsted inspected the school in May 2013 and found it to be a ‘good’ school in every category with many areas deemed to be ‘outstanding’. This marks the school out as one of the few to be able to improve its official grading in a time of much higher standards, when many are dropping a grade. The school provides a first class education for students from the local community as well as from around the globe. Students benefit from a truly personalised approach to teaching and the goal is to encourage each and every student to be the very best that they can. Facilities for the boarders at Barton Hill House have also recently been rated as ‘outstanding’ by Ofsted Inspectors, and students can choose to board on a weekly, termly or full boarding basis. The joint sixth form provision for Shaftesbury and Sturminster Newton creates one of the most successful sixth forms in the region, with top class A level results, and is a very special place to learn. To see all this for yourself, and find out how it can benefit your child’s education, the school’s open evening will be on Thu 25 Sep, 6pm-8.30pm.

The safety net The internet is a fact of life for most 21st century children. Becki Murray explores ways to make sure it’s safe.
F
rom the child who runs up hundreds of pounds in phone bills on inadvertent “in-app” purchases to the 10-year-old who stumbles across adult content online, parents are frequently reminded of the new dangers brought to us by the internet age. Online activity is a growing component of young people’s lives as Ofcom, the UK’s communications regulator, reported in 2013. It said that 82% of 5 to 7 year olds and 96% of 8 to 11 year olds now use the internet while the same figures reported that 11% of 9 to 16 year olds have encountered sexual images online in the last 12 months. Whether using search engines to help with their homework or social media to talk to friends, children clearly face risks online. It’s equally clear, however, that they can’t be barred from using their devices entirely and parents need to proactively manage their children’s internet activities to reduce the risks to an absolute minimum.
PRIMARY TIMES
As many experts pointed out, the world wide web is a public place where anyone can create content, while any content you or your children post may be visible to a global audience. In the same way that they discuss the dangers of the outside world with their children parents can have a similar conversation with children about online safety. Author and former police officer Kate Power stresses that there’s no substitute for discussing these issues with your children. She suggests using scenarios to make conversations interactive, a method she has used with her own children. “Instead of telling a child, ‘Don’t talk to strange people online!’, parents can ask specific questions about situations children may encounter,” says Power. “Try asking, ‘What would you do if you accidentally clicked on something which made you uncomfortable?’” Her book ‘My Underpants Rule’, which chimes with the NSPCC’s PANTS campaign, offers practical, easily understood advice to 4 to 8 year olds about their private areas. The overriding message is “What’s under my pants belongs only to me.” This approach allows children to think for themselves, Power insists, and ensures they understand how to react in the event of an inappropriate suggestion. The method avoids distress by focusing on proactive prevention rather
than the consequences of making a mistake and children feel that their safety comes before any punishment for the actions they report. Beyond this, there are a range of controls parents can deploy if they’re not one hundred percent confident of their child’s sense of internet safety. Many internet search engines now have easily activated ‘SafeSearch’ features, while child-friendly search engines such as Swiggle only display search results appropriate for children. Other measures include establishing time limiting rules and Kate Power only allowing internet use in a parent’s presence. More advanced technology can monitor and control your children’s browsing. For example NetGenie, a product by UK antivirus specialist Cyberoam, offers security solutions already used by schools to the home. It filters content based on your child’s age and sets internet-off ‘bedtimes’, without affecting parents’ online activity. Simon Muir of the Bristol IT Company, which supplies the product says, ‘It does what any responsible parent needs, protecting children, without making them feel constrained.” Meanwhile, you can be confident of online safety in your
child’s school, says Nick Yates of North Somerset Council, if it has an E-Safety Mark. This recognises “a good level of policy and provision of e-safety across the whole school community.” Schools in North Somerset, he says, also use a broadband service, the South West Grid for Learning, which will not permit access to any sites listed by the online monitoring organisation Internet Watch Foundation. The internet itself has plenty of advice on protecting children online. The NSPCC and Internet Matters websites, as well as the Police’s Child Exploitation and Online Protection Centre (CEOP), engage all ages with internet safety. They contain information for parents such as how to start conversations about children’s computer use as well as explaining how to report online activities which have upset or unnerved either themselves or their child. If you’re at all worried about your child’s internet activity, of course, don’t hesitate to suspend their computer usage and turn to CEOP or the NSPCC for guidance.
