Our Golf Day for 2008 was held recently at Allerthorpe Park Golf Club. Once again a wonderful day was had by all ( and at least this year we did not get washed out!). We would like to thank everyone who took part, our helpers and the golf course staff for supporting us. Rollitts took the trophy this year so well done to them.

Helen Musgrove had been awarded the Pyschology prize for 2008. Helen plans to have a gap year during which she will work and travel. The ex Oaklands school pupil plans to go on to study pyschology at Durham University. Her tutor Andy Higgs said Helen was an extremely conscientious and hard working student who had been a delight to work with. She has had a strong commitment to the subject over the last 2 years and was always well prepared and organised. Helen commented that she had not studied pyschology before she attended York 6th form college so it was a totally new subject for her but she found the course really interesting and was impressed by the teaching. Eventually she hopes to become a pyschotherapist.

We have just heard that Corrinne Hepworth who won the award in 2005  has recently finished her degree in Pyschology at Northumbria University and acheived a 2.1. Well done Corrinne and good luck for your future.

 Six years after Caroline was murdered in Bundaberg, Marjorie felt strong enough to visit the site of Caroline's tragic death with the support of her husband David and Megan Hunt from the Foreign Office. During the two day visit to Bundaberg Marjorie and David met the new Mayor  Lorraine Pyefinch and the ex Mayor of eight years Kay MacDuff. The new Mayor presented a memorial fund cheque raised by the local community for the charity. Dave Batt , the police detective who worked on the case for two years drove Marjorie and David to the bridge and to see the memorial tree set in lovely gardens in Bundaberg. Marjorie and David were struck by how much the people of Bundaberg had been affected by Caroline's death and were so impressed by everyone's kindness and consideration to them during their visit.
