'Atherstone': stories of the residential hostel where memories were made!

Saturday October 30th 1.00.p.m. (an hour plus time for questions)

A presentation by Mr Chris Smith retired Head teacher from Welford Primary School.

Come on a trip down memory lane to the place where many memories were made.

Many people recall their visits to The Children’s Community Venture Hostel that was shared by many Birmingham Schools. It was the Brainchild of Dr Winkley of Grove Primary School who soon persuaded other Head teachers and schools to join in the fund raising. The money was raised and the hostel was built. Hundreds of children learnt about the countryside and nature and village life through these visits.

Also, last chance to visit the Exhibition!
