The grounds maintenance team in action clearing and chipping undergrowth on Pastures Hill.

A week ago I passed on a complaint from a local resident to the Council about the state of the pavement at the top of Pastures Hill.

If it wasn’t for the wide grass verge, pupils would have been walking in the road because of the trees and other plants growing across the path.  I was delighted that a team was out there within the week, cutting back branches, clearing back the undergrowth and sweeping the pavement clear of leaves.

OK some leaves will no doubt be back, but having a clear path will give the muddied grass a chance to recover and make it easier for pupils to walk.

Thank you, grounds maintenance team!
