Arlesey Pre-School
The last few weeks have been lovely so the children have finally been able
to enjoy outside activities! With a large parasol for shade and our new stateof-the-art matting they are loving the new climbing frame.
Our oldest members who are leaving for Gothic Mede have been superexcited to go across for their visits. They got to meet their teacher, see their
classroom and try their first school dinner!
We have places available for September – anyone looking for a wellrespected childcare setting should get in touch! Our contact number is
07815 293 670 and we are available to answer any questions over the
summer break. You can also pick up a registration form from the Arlesey
Town Council Office and return it to the Preschool. Government funding
for 2 year olds is available subject to criteria.
A final thank you to everyone who came to our recent Bingo Night at the
Village Hall – it was a brilliant evening. We couldn’t hold our regular events
without the support of our local community, so we would like to stress just
how much we appreciate it!
Happy Summer!

Thank you to everyone who attended the meeting on 10 June, or took part
in the survey afterwards, about the opportunities we have to improve local
bus services and the condition of West Drive. Your feedback has helped
Councillors decide how to split the total available money. £226,000 will be
used to support local bus services over the next few years and £65,000 will
be used to improve the condition of West Drive.
Work has begun on the options to add new and improve the existing bus
services. We hope to have more information on that over the summer and to
see the changes begin this autumn.
Residents were very concerned to preserve the special quality of West
Drive but do support making the path safe. Initial repairs will take place
shortly. Litter bins and security will be considered next. Longer term, local
involvement and a habitat management plan will determine what other
improvements are made.
