KINETON PRIMARY SCHOOL, KING JOHNS ROAD, KINETON WARWICKS

WHO ARE THE FRIENDS?

The Friends are a group of ordinary parents and teachers from Kineton Primary School, who get together to do extraordinary things.

The principle aim of the Friends is to raise money to buy the extra's that the school budget does not support. We have supplied specialist and high quality books and software, IT equipment, the stage, the adventure playgrounds, plus many more smaller things chosen by either the children or their class teachers. We subsidise many school trips as well as visits fom theatre groups.

The committee comprises of: a chairperson, responsible for setting the monthly agenda's and keeping meetings on track as well as being the first point of contact with the school and many parents; the treasurer, who keeps a record of both income and expenditure, and deals with the banks; the secretary, who documents what was discussed and decisions made at each of the monthly meetings we hold during school term times. In addition, there are a number of committee members, who take on tasks as they come up, generate ideas for new events and decide how the money is to be spent. Behind all of this is you. By virtue of you visiting this site, yo are "a Friend". You may come and help run a stall at an event, provide a raffle prize or just come along, spend some money and have a good time at one of the 6 or 7 events we have in the school calendar.

How can you get involved? Come along to the next meeting on 7th October at 7.30, in the School Hall. We will be reviewing the previous year, as well as selecting the new committee. It is a chance to meet other parents, discuss ideas or just see what goes on behind the scenes. There is no great time commitment. The more people are involved, the less there is for each individual to do.

See you on the 7th October?

FLYPAST BY THE BATTLE OF BRITAIN MEMORIAL FLIGHT

The last Hurricane ever built (of 14,533), PZ865 rolled off the production line at Langley, Buckinghamshire, in the summer of 1944 with the inscription ‘The Last of the Many' on her port and starboard sides. The aircraft was almost immediately purchased back from the Air Ministry by Hawkers and initially mothballed, before being employed as a company communications and test aircraft. In 1950, wearing the civilian registration G-AMAU, it was entered in the Kings Cup Air Race by HRH Princess Margaret. Flown by Group Captain Peter Townsend it achieved second place. During the 1960s, PZ865 was returned to its wartime camouflage scheme and was used as a company 'hack' and communications aircraft. It appeared in 'The Battle of Britain' film and also made numerous display appearances, often in the hands of the famous fighter pilot and test pilot Bill Bedford. After a complete overhaul, PZ865 was flown to Coltishall in March 1972 and given to the Memorial Flight by Hawker Siddeley. For many years the aircraft appeared as 'The Last of the Many' but eventually the inscription was removed and put on display in the BBMF headquarters. On 5th July it flew over Kineton in the capable habds of Grp Capt Ian Smith.
