There will be a public meeting on 17 July 2014 at 1930 to provide an update on and discuss options concerning the Stansfeld Outdoor Education Centre.

The meeting will take place in the Function Room at the Mason’s Arms.

Please join us.

Following an application by the Friends of Quarry following the first Public Meeting concerning the future of Stansfeld Outdoor Education Centre, we are pleased to report that Oxford City Council has now included the Centre on the List of Assets of Community Value.

Inclusion on the List of Assets puts in place restrictions on the sale of the property under the Localism Act, which are intended to give the local community a voice in the purpose that the land is sold for.

A copy of the Notice of Decision is attached.

Friends of Quarry are holding an urgent PUBLIC MEETING concerning the future of the Stansfeld Centre, following Birmingham City Council’s decision to put it up for sale.

The meeting will take place at 1930 on Thursday 27th MARCH in Quarry Village Hall.

ALL ARE WELCOME

The anniversary celebration is scheduled for Saturday June 21st. Times will be published later.

The next meeting to organize this event will take place at Quarry School at 6.30 on April 1st.

Anyone who is interested in being involved should either attend the meeting or contact the headmistress.

Trinity Road is predicted to be closed for the next two weeks at least as Thames Water’s subcontractors have encountered unforeseen problems.

Headington Quarry School was opened in September 1864 making 2014 our 150^th anniversary. We feel that this should be celebrated as the school has always been a very important part of the Quarry community. We want local people to come and help us put together a display of photographs, memories and help co-ordinate an open- day. This could be either lending old school photo’s, visiting the Records Office to research and gather more documents or coming along to share some memories of spending school days here over the years.

Please help us to celebrate this very special year. There will be a preliminary meeting on Tuesday  25^th February in the school Community Room at 6.30p.m for anyone who is interested to meet up and make plans!
