More than 1,000 schools could shut this week when teachers go on national strike for the first time in 21 years. Most parents are unaware of the upcoming closures - which would see thousands of children sent home - because schools have been shut for the Easter holidays. It has not yet been confirmed by Kent County council if any schools in Shepway will be affected.
Commercial Concerns Ltd have arranged a meeting in All Soul's Church Hall at 6.45pm on Monday 21st April 2008 to discuss the potential redevelopment of Chilham Road, Cheriton. All interested residents are encouraged to attend.
Commenting on today's immigration tribunal hearing on whether retired Gurkhas should be allowed to settle in the UK, Liberal Democrat Leader, Nick Clegg said:
The Hythe Annual Town Meeting will take place at The Town Hall, Hythe High Street, Hythe on Thursday the 24th April 2008 at 7.00pm. The meeting will hear reports from the Council, Kent County Council, Shepway District Council, the Association of Local Councils and voluntary organisations from Hythe, and to consider any resolutions for which notice has been given.
A number of roads in Sandgate, Cheriton, East Folkestone, Hythe, New Romney and Lydd have been scheduled by Kent Highway Services for "Micro-Surfacing". It is anticipated that all works will be undertaken from the last week in April to the second week in May.
At the Hythe Town Council Meeting on 10 April NOT ONE Hythe West Councillor was present. Two of the councillors, Conservatives Linda and John Oliver, moved to Bath in December but continue to hang onto their seats, despite rarely attending meetings. The other two Conservative Councillors for the ward also gave their apologies for the meeting - meaning that there was NO representation for Hythe West at all.
Thank you for your continuous interest in the upcoming Folkestone Triennial - we wanted to update you on recent activities.
New "School Warning" signs will be erected at the junction of Valebrook Close and Cheriton Court Road in Cheriton following a request by Cheriton Councillor Peter Carroll. Shepway Council have confirmed they have now bought the new signs and that they will be erected in the next week.
A regular email of recent press stories and updates from Shepway District Council DOESN'T get sent to the Leader of the Lib Dem opposition group on the Council, but DOES get sent to the local Conservative Agent!
