A baby Humboldt penguin

24 April.

been seen regularly since then.
Now staff at the zoo are asking
members of the public to come
forward with names for the bird.

in choosing a name.
“The zoo has always been

Head zookeeper, John
Pickering, said: “We have yet

Record exam results for local schools
PUPILS are celebrating after
achieving the best ever GCSE and
A-level results in the East Riding.
The record breaking levels of
performance saw 59 per cent of
pupils achieving the Government’s
‘gold standard’ of five or more
GCSEs A*-C including English
and maths, beating last year’s
performance by seven per cent.
It is the fifth successive year that
GCSE results have risen with 78
per cent of pupils getting five or
more A*-C GCSE grades.
Young people receiving their
A-level results this summer also
had good news to report. As this
is the first year the A* grade has
been introduced, comparisons
with previous years is more
difficult.
Councillor Penny Peacock,
portfolio holder for children,
young people and schools,
said: “These results come from
thousands of individual successes
and it is really pleasing to think

„ LEADING LINES
LEADER OF THE COUNCIL
COUNCILLOR STEPHEN PARNABY OBE
It isn’t often East Yorkshire hosts
international sporting events but this was
the case in August when the impressive
Bishop Burton College was the venue for
the European Pony Championships. Fifteen
teams from all parts of Europe competed
over ve days in eventing, dressage, and
show jumping in some of the country’s
nest equestrian facilities. This is the
rst time in 13 years the championships
have been held in this country and it is
a great tribute to the principal, Jeanette
Dawson OBE, college governors and staff in
attracting this prestigious event. The college
has recently undergone major investment
with a £25 million redevelopment
programme, the works being carried out
by local contractors, much of which has
focused on the college’s Equine Centre.
Next year will see the Polocrosse World
Cup, and the college is also an approved
equestrian training centre for the 2012
Olympic Games.
The European Pony Championships
involved around 300 riders with the
support of around 200 others including
grooms, vets and physiotherapists with
parents and supporters bringing almost
another 1,000 visitors to East Yorkshire.
Tributes have been paid to the college’s
facilities by the Fédération Equestre
Internationale (FEI) and leading individuals
from across the teams.
The opening was spectacular with a
really friendly atmosphere, which continued
throughout the competition. Great Britain
took gold in eventing, the Netherlands
in dressage and in show jumping it was
Germany.
East Yorkshire Events, the conference
and events arm of East Riding of Yorkshire
Council, gave its support, as it does with
other events throughout the year. In 2010
the team have helped to bring around 35
events to the area attracting around 70,000
people and generating over £7m for the
local economy.
Bishop Burton is now rmly on the
map as a leading equestrian venue, a real
showcase and something that we should
all be proud of in the East Riding. I am very
proud and I congratulate everyone involved.
Food and garden waste
I HAVE just read about the new idea for
putting food waste and cardboard into the
brown bins as well as garden waste - a good
idea but unfortunately this will not be possible
for me as I already fill my brown bin easily in a
fortnight and sometimes a week in the summer.
I have four composters so I think I am doing
my bit here too but unless (a) the brown bin is
collected more often or (b) I can have two bins
(and I know I am not the only person to want
this as your paper proves) unfortunately my
food waste and cardboard will have to continue
to go into the green bin during the summer.
Please do not suggest, as I have seen you do
to others, a visit to the nearest waste disposal
site - if you want us to reach the targets you
need to accept that not all households are
exactly the same so one brown bin is not ‘just
right’ for the majority of residents as the reply
in July stated and even if you consider that to
be true now it certainly won’t be when the new
suggestions are implemented.
Not everyone has the use of a car to visit
these sites anyway. You were happy enough to
supply two blue bins so I can’t see the problem
with two brown bins. Incidentally you still are

Bridlington park and ride
I WOULD like to suggest that part of
Bridlington park and ride car park be re-
assigned to short term parking.
Not everyone who visits the South Bay
wishes to stay all day or be driven into the
centre of Bridlington. Many people use
the South Bay for walking on the beach,
kicking a ball around, flying a kite or
walking the dog and only stay for an hour
or two. I think the present arrangements
are too inflexible and are going to
discourage such people who do not want
to pay for all day parking.
Can I also ask what are the proposed
out-of-season arrangements for the car
park. Previously it was possible during the
winter periods to park in the South Bay for
free to participate in the above activities.
Keith Britton, Beverley
Dear Mr Britton
THE issue has been raised as part of an
ongoing review of the service and will
continue to be monitored for the season.
We would agree that not every one
wishes to visit the town centre but would
instead look to use the excellent beach and
coastal facilities on offer at this location
and an all day parking fee of £3.50 offers
excellent value for money. The fact that
you would still have the added benefit of
access to the park and ride service at this
not providing, as Hull council do, a means of
collecting glass bottles - perhaps this could be
addressed in the future too.
Mrs P J Symes, Bilton
Dear Mrs Symes

residents’ waste on a tight budget or, I should

specific location, should you chose to use
it, we see as a bonus.
The provision and location of the park
and ride is significant in our endeavours
to reduce peak season traffic flow in
Bridlington town centre and, together
with other highway developments such as
the Spa Environs works, this will improve
the quality of provision and local service
in the town centre for both visitors and
residents.
This car park and all other major car
parks in Bridlington are being linked by
variable message signs to show where there
are car parking spaces available. These
signs will give you direction, together
with a choice and availability as you access
Bridlington.
We do intend to review service and car
park provision at this location for the
autumn period, subject to weather and
ground conditions. The coach service
will cease at the end of September, with a
limited land train service operating until
the end of October. As part of the review
winter operations and charges will be
considered with effect from 1 November.

aspect of this response please email our

Ian Cook, assistant tourism manager
say, on an increasingly tight budget.
East Riding covers a huge area and, as a
consequence, the kerbside bin collections are
a major part of the council’s expenditure. To
increase the number of weekly bin collections
at this time is not possible, nor can we add to
the number of bins as this increases the timings
of the rounds, adding yet more cost.
We are making great efforts to help residents
with their waste, the future food waste
collection being just one.
I accept a few households will have difficulty
fitting both garden and food waste in the bins
and it is for this reason we provide initiatives
and suggestions such as those on page 9.
You make a good point about kerbside
glass collections. I am hoping to make an
announcement later this year about glass
collections that will please the residents who
have raised this issue with me.
John Skidmore, head of streetscene services
Free caddy liners
I READ with interest your articles on the
brown bins and caddy bins in the East Riding
news July edition.
I am a resident in Brough who has been
using the bins quite successfully but with
reference to the comment made by David
Jarvis, who is also a resident, about the caddy
liners been offered at a reduced price– why
can they not be given to us free like Hull City
Council does to its residents?
I would be grateful for your comments.
Linda Berriman, Brough
Dear Mrs Berriman
I am glad to hear that you have been taking
part in the food waste trial and have found it to
be successful.
As a resident taking part in the trial, you
should have received free liners, sufficient to
last many months.
You will continue to receive free liners,
as will all residents when the food waste
collection is rolled out across the East Riding
later this year.
John Skidmore, head of streetscene services
Recycling cardboard
I AM very pleased that the trials of recycling
kitchen waste and cardboard via the brown bins
has been a success and is gradually being rolled
out across the county.
However, must we wait months(and if so
why?) to receive the kitchen bin before we
can recycle our cardboard via the brown bin?
Surely we can start putting cardboard into
the brown bins straight away as you have the
facilities in place to deal with this.
Lynne Bradley, Wawne
Dear Mrs Bradley,
BRIEFLY, no food waste or cardboard should
be put into the brown bins until we start the
new service later in the year.
Like you, many residents have welcomed the
new service. While there is a temptation to put
food waste and cardboard in the brown bins
straight away, I am urging residents not to do
so.
Food waste and cardboard put into the
brown bins now could contaminate the entire
load on the collection vehicle. It has then to
be sent to landfill, which is a waste of both
compost and money. Food mingled with
garden waste must be heat treated to destroy
harmful bacteria, which will happen to the
waste collected under the new service later this
year.
Every effort has been made to keep to a
minimum the gap between the announcement
and the start of the new service. The
announcement was made when the council’s
cabinet gave its approval. At that point, we
were in a position to proceed with detailed
planning.
With 150,000 households and 3,300km of
roads across an area of nearly 2,500sq.km,
it is a major exercise in planning to add an
additional service to the kerbside collections,
but I should be able to announce in the coming
weeks the dates of the phased roll out.

Consultation
Update
This column is to tell residents what
consultations are taking place, how
they can take part and what happens
once the consultations are complete.
By consulting and engaging, we can
make sure that all of their views are
heard.
New surveys
We are looking for feedback to help us improve
the voluntary and community sector in the East
Riding. The voluntary sector steering group,
on behalf of the East Riding Local Strategic
Partnership (LSP), will soon be consulting with
voluntary and community sector organisations
using a range of media. If you work in this
sector and receive this questionnaire, please
take the opportunity to Have Your Say and
help develop our strategy. We are interested
to hear your views about what issues are most
important to you, and what areas the strategy
should focus on.
Completed consultations
The sport and play development service
recently carried out a Walk for Health survey.
The aims of this questionnaire were to nd out
what East Riding residents who took part in the
walks thought of the scheme, and to nd out
how the scheme could look in the future.
You told us…
…that the walks were well organised
and enjoyable
…we will aim to keep our standards high and
encourage the wider use of this service.
…63.9 per cent thought the layout of
the walk programme was very good
…we will continue to provide newcomers on
the course with an instructions booklet and
ensure it covers all the essential information.
…that the course helps you become
more active and feel healthier
…so we have decided to further advertise
the scheme. Look out for notices at your local
leisure centres.

of helping residents deal with
garden waste.
This includes a prize draw for one
resident to have the council build a

and tips on how they managed the
compost.
There are also free home

Andy said: “Now is the time to cut
back hedges, clear the garden of dead
bedding plants and put away hanging
baskets. This all makes for extra
garden waste.
“The best way of dealing with it is
to make your own compost, using the
brown bin as the last resort, with the
added bonus that making your own
compost saves money on buying soil
improver.
“Try layering the waste, making
sure it gets enough air and rain. Layer
chopped hedge trimmings with grass
and spent plants. It’s a bit like making
lasagne. The more layers the better.
When it starts to break down, turn it
over occasionally.
“A really simple way of dealing
with it is to find a corner of the
garden, get some cardboard boxes, fill
them with garden waste, pile them
on top of one another and let it all rot
down. Then, start mixing it by turning

New campaign raises awareness of social networking websites
New campaign
on social media
„ BY Charlotte Richardson
E. eastridingnews@eastriding.gov.uk
A
new campaign is
being launched this
month to remind
pupils, parents, teachers
and governors about the
recommendations for use of
social media sites.
Recently there have been a
series of school related incidents
where pupils or teachers are
being bullied by groups set up on
social networking sites.
Alison Michalska, director
of children, family and adult
services, said: “This isn’t a huge
problem in the East Riding
but it is becoming more of
an issue. There have been an
increasing number of people
setting up groups which, in some
circumstances, can constitute
harassment.
“Everyone needs to be aware
that by writing things on social
network sites they are effectively
publishing information.
Now, at the start of a new
term, the council is launching a
campaign to remind everyone
connected with schools about the
rules.
Governors will be sent letters
and schools will contact parents
explaining that using social
networking sites is effectively
publishing information and that
bullying against staff members
and against children won’t be
tolerated.
Alison said: “These sites are
not the places to air grievances
and make judgements about
people’s work capabilities and I
would urge any parent or carer
who has a concern about their
school staff to go through the
correct channels.”
Pupils will be encouraged

The order is being brought in by

Councillor Jane Evison, the council’s

“Every year a number of people in
the UK are killed or injured plunging
into open water, a practice known as

“Not only are the young people
putting themselves at risk, but they are
also causing a nuisance in the area.

Under the terms of the order, police

Work undertaken to reduce ood risk
WORK to reduce the risk of ooding
from Beverley’s Westwood is well
underway.
East Riding of Yorkshire Council has
been working on a two stage scheme in
the area - just one of the council’s 188
projects to reduce the risk of ooding.
Councillor Stephen Parnaby, OBE,
the council’s leader, said: “Following the
oods of 2007 this council has been
committed to working throughout
the East Riding to reduce the risk of
ooding to residents and businesses.
“I am sure anyone whose home
or livelihood is in the East Riding will
welcome this vital work, which helps
to reduce the impact to the area of
ooding if we nd ourselves facing a
similar situation again in the future.”
Work includes a new pipeline at the
Hurn, which can carry more than four
million litres of water safely away from
nearby homes in a 12 hour period and
a low bund to channel water from the
Westwood into the new pipeline.
The council’s land drainage team,
in consultation with the Westwood’s
Pasture Masters, has designed the bund
to blend into the edge of the pasture
with little visual impact.

Keep the bar or chain on while talking.
However when the door is shut and
locked, leave the bar or chain off, in
case an emergency requires a quick

New campaign
tackles driver awareness
M
otorcycle riders and
employees of Safer Roads
Humber involved in the
latest campaign to make the roads
safer are wearing tabards pointing
out that they are someone’s son,
someone’s dad and someone’s best
mate.
The move comes as research has shown
that drivers who know a motorbike rider
are less likely to be in a collision with one.
Now everyone on the road is again being
asked to look out for motorcyclists as part
of a regional campaign. This is especially
important for East Riding motorists after a
spate of motorcycle crashes.
Ruth Gore, spokesperson for Safer Roads
Humber - one of the bodies throughout
Yorkshire working to improve the safety of
motorbike users - said: “This campaign has
a message to both the motorcyclists and the
driver of other vehicles.
“Our aim is to raise awareness amongst
drivers to look out for bikes at all times but
especially at junctions. We need drivers to
check once, check twice, check for bikes.”
Across Yorkshire and Humber, 75
per cent of rider casualties result from a
collision with another vehicle. People on
two wheels make up one per cent of traffic
but account for 21 per cent of casualties.
More than 50 per cent of riders injured
on the roads are at junctions marked give

way.
Safer Roads Humber worked with the
Road Safety Partnerships in West and
South Yorkshire to launch the campaign
earlier in the summer.
Activities - funded in the East Riding by
East Riding of Yorkshire Council’s road
safety team - are still going on and the
partnership is planning a second big burst
of activity during September and October
as the evenings draw in.
The campaign features radio adverts,
posters, leaflets, high visibility tabards and
a specially commissioned website
www.someones-son.co.uk
Win a tabard...
To coincide with the launch of the Someone’s Son website
and campaign Safer Roads have kindly given the East Riding
News one of each tabard to be won by five lucky readers.

following questions;
1) What percentage of rider casualties result from a collision
with another vehicle?
2) What percentage of riders injured on the roads are at
junctions marked give way?
3) Complete the sentence….. check once, check twice, check

with partners to provide activities
specially tailored for the over 50s.
“We hope there is something
for everyone and that many of
the people who try taster sessions
as part of this event will continue

T
HE building of the
Sure Start children’s
centres in the East
Riding of Yorkshire is
almost complete with the
final centres in Beeford
and Market Weighton
gearing up to serve the
local community.
The building work of Beeford
children’s centre, situated on
the site of Beeford Primary
School, Main Street, is now
complete and some services
are already being offered from
the centre, with even more
soon to be available.
The Market Weighton

delivering services from next
month.
Councillor Peacock, portfolio
holder for children, young
people and schools, said:
“Children’s centres have
been up and running in the
the community it serves and
offers a range of facilities and
groups as well as support for
parents and carers.
“They are superb venues
which can be used for
everything from cookery
classes and childminder
groups to parenting courses
and toy libraries.”
There will be family fun days
at all the centres across the

Finding suitable PARENTING

out of school care MONTHLY GUIDE TO CHILDCARE

S
eptember signals the
start of another new
school year and the
Families Information Service
Hub (FISH) can help you
find out of school childcare
as well as childcare for the
under fives.
In addition to out of school
clubs, childminders and nurseries
can also offer care for school aged
and pre-school children.
School aged children need safe
care after school and during school
holidays, from primary school
through to the first few years of
secondary education.
There are a growing number
of after-school clubs - sometimes
called kids clubs - in the UK.
These are usually based
in school premises, youth or
community centres. Some
nurseries offer after school care
too. Wherever the location, a child
carer or play worker collects the
children from school and takes
them to the after-school club.
Children are usually signed
in, and signed out again when
collected by a parent or named
carer. The pick-up time is usually
6pm, and some offer breakfast
club facilities from 8am for parents
who start work before school
hours. Holiday clubs are run in
the school holidays, often by the
same organisation, and offer extra
activities and days out. Both are
regulated and inspected by Ofsted.
If you or your family are looking
for childcare:
• research your options. Contact
FISH to find out the full range in
your area
• make sure that the childcare
is high-quality. Take a list of
questions with you and don’t be
afraid to ask them
• if the provider is registered by
Ofsted, look out for the most
recent Ofsted inspection report
• ask other parent/carers about
what’s worked for them. Go
with what you think best – you
know your child
• think about what would suit
your child’s personality. What
environment would they thrive
in? Take your child with you to
see how they get on with the
staff and surroundings.
Also consider the following:
• is the atmosphere friendly?
• is there plenty of space inside
and outside?
• is there an area where children
can do homework/play/
chill out? What about safety?
– ask about their plans for an
emergency
• what are the staff’s views on
discipline?
• is there a separate section for
younger children?
• is the food good? What about
any special requirements?
• what support can staff give to
help your child to keep learning
at home?
For more details of your childcare
options, or help in finding
childcare in the East Riding, ring
FISH on (01482) 396469.

Did you know?...

75% of rider casualties occur from a collision with another vehicle, most often a car and most often at a
junction. We know it's not always the drivers fault but by taking that extra second to check for bikes you
could just save yourself a lot of time…

F
ollowing on from the success
of previous series, Hull City
Hall has announced the line
up for its new International Masters
Series.
In the past few years Hull City Hall has
played host to some of the world’s most
distinguished orchestras and ensembles,
and this series is no different. Featuring
the best in both international and
domestic talent, audiences will not want
to miss the chance to hear some of the
most beautiful pieces of classical music
ever performed live.
To open the season, we are delighted
to welcome back the world renowned
Tchaikovsky Symphony Orchestra
of Moscow Radio (Tuesday, 19
October). This orchestra was awarded
the distinction of being named the
Tchaikovsky Symphony Orchestra
of Moscow Radio by the Russian
Government due to its contribution
to Russian music. Performing under
their principal guest conductor Terje
Mikkelsen, the concert will begin with a
suite from Grieg’s dramatic Peer Gynt,
followed by Sibelius’ passionate Violin
Concerto. In the second half of the
programme, the orchestra will perform
Rachmaninov’s Symphony No.2. First
conducted by the composer himself in
1908, this heartfelt, passionate symphony
expresses only too well Rachmaninov’s
great melodic gift and his extraordinary
talent for rich orchestration and is now
regarded by many as the culmination of
the great Romantic Russian symphonic
tradition of the 19th Century.
The highly distinguished Austrian
orchestra, the Salzburg Mozarteum
Orchestra will be making a visit to
Hull City Hall for the very first time.
(Monday, 22 November). The programme
will open with Schubert’s ethereal
Symphony No.8, commonly known as
the Unfinished Symphony. The orchestra
will then be joined by one of the UK’s
most popular pianists, Freddy Kempf,
who will be performing Mozart’s Piano
Concerto No.23 in A major. This classical
masterpiece illustrates emphatically why
Mozart’s piano concertos have been so
enduringly popular ever since they were
first performed. In the second half of
the concert, the orchestra will perform
Beethoven’s Symphony No.6, also known
as the Pastoral, which wonderfully
evokes the countryside around Vienna
that Beethoven loved so much.
The award-winning Hallé will also
be returning to Hull this season under
the distinguished conductor André
de Ridder, to perform the stunning
string harmonies of Vaughan Williams’
Fantasia inspired by the great Elizabethan
composer, Thomas Tallis (Friday, 14
January). Ilya Gringolts, the awe inspiring
young Russian violinist will also be
performing one of Schumann’s greatest
masterpieces, the Violin Concerto in D
minor. This poignant, passionate and
dramatic concerto certainly requires the

LA BOHEME BY GIACOMO PUCCINI
Wednesday, 27 October
7.30pm
The Spa Theatre, Bridlington
Sung in Italian, with piano accompaniment
La Bohème is one of the most famously
melodious and eternally popular of all
operas, featuring such wonderful arias as
‘Che gelida manina’ (your tiny hand is
frozen), ‘Mi chiamano Mimì’ (they call me
Mimì) and Musetta’s Waltz Aria, ‘Quando
m’en vo’.
Set in a bare garret in 1830’s Paris we meet
four young Bohemians whose carefree
attitude is poignantly contrasted with
the harsh realities of life. Mimì, a solitary
seamstress, falls madly in love with Rodolfo,
the poet, and we follow their passionate and
tragic love affair along side the tumultuous
relationship of their friends Musetta and
Marcello. This is a fabulous choice for the
opera virgins and an all time favourite for
the cognoscenti – Puccini’s tunes are all
enveloping and the story seems so real that most will end up with at least one tear in
their eye during the nal chords, as Rodolfo cries out for his lost love…Mimì…Mimì!! This
production is performed in period costume, with piano and full set.
Adults £15, concessions £12 available from the Spa box ofce (01262) 678258.
For your chance to win a pair of tickets answer the following question:
What is the name of the solitary seamstress: a) Didi; b) Kiki; c) Mimi?

Calling all
graduates
T
HE East Riding prides itself
on providing development
opportunities both for its
existing staff and those it seeks to
recruit.
This year will be the eleventh round of
graduates that the council have recruited
under this development initiative as
professional graduate trainees.
The 12 month scheme allows
graduates to undertake specialist
individual and group projects across the
council’s directorates enabling them to
gain knowledge, skills and experience
of differing service activities. It is an
excellent way of balancing academic
learning against the practicalities of
organisational reality. Trainees are
provided with the opportunity to
work on projects that achieve tangible
outcomes as a practical way of
developing the generic skills needed
in the ever-changing world of local
government management.
In the words of four of our previous
trainees:

knowledge at the beginning of a project as I only have 12 weeks
in each project before moving onto the next one.
“Recently, I had to develop an information package for GPs that
contained information on healthy lifestyles and now I am looking
at the different ways people can contact the council and how it
can be improved.”

management and marketing at Hull University.
Victoria said: “I enjoy working for the council because it has a
good reputation and it is well known in the community.”
