Neighbourhood Team’s
priorities;-
Pott‘s Lane car park, Crowle – this area has seen a
group of young people and vehicles congregating in
the car park mainly during the evening and causing
a nuisance to residents and the public which can be
quite intimidating. Police patrols have increased
and there has been regular sanctions imposed on
identified offences and offenders. There is on-
going work being completed by the
Neighbourhood team and partnership agencies.
St Oswald‘s Church/Gardens, Crowle – this is an area suffering from youths causing annoyance and anti-
social behaviour. The neighbourhood team are making patrols in the area and will deal with any persons
who commit offences in this area. Any information regarding the persons responsible please contact you
Neighbourhood team.
Keadby Park/Edinburgh Road, Keadby – reports are being received that this area is suffering from persons
being in drink and small fires be set alight. The Neighbourhood team patrol the area and work with
partner agencies to address and prevent this behaviour from continuing.
The Neighbourhood team currently hold a Police surgery on the 1st Monday of every month at the Tesco
supermarket in Crowle between 1pm and 2pm and staff are more than happy to speak to any member of
the community. If you are unable to make these surgeries then the Neighbourhood Team for the North
ward of the Isle of Axholme are;- PC 1717 Graham GODLEY, PCSO 7576 Paul FEARON and PCSO
7889 Wendy FREAR, please do not hesitate to make contact with the above either by e-mail or by phone.
The Neighbourhood team continue to work with the local authority and youths to support diversionary
activities for youths to prevent them offending. We are working to support activities planned by partner
agencies for the summer period which will be advertised in various media outlets.
The 2010 Lifestyle project has been launched and local children are encouraged to participate and perhaps
win a trip to Florida. Neighbourhood staff will be visiting local schools in the area to promote and assist
the young people with their projects.
Anyone wishing to participate should direct their attention to our website www.humberside.police.uk/
lifestyle or contact 01482 220700.
You can contact Humberside Police on 0845 60 60 222 for non-emergency

Members of Axholme Camera Club did
not have to venture far to find subjects
to photograph for one of the recent
competitions. They were only allowed to venture two
miles from home. Encouraging people to look at their locality
in a new light, the entries were many and varied, providing
the judge with food for thought.
A Landscape or Seascape competition produced images from
far afield. Mick Revill of Crowle entered Sunset in South
Africa, Dave Neale Spitzbergen and George Fiddler one
from the USA . The judge, Ernie Jackson of Doncaster, had
some difficult decisions to make. The winners, however,
were Andrew Kershaw , with 4 prints in the ratings, including
the winner in the monochrome section, and Jean Goodburne
of Hatfield, winner of the colour section. Peter Webster,
Judy Newton, and Lynda Ulyett also scored 19s.
Due to adverse weather conditions early in the year, many of
the postponed programmes have been rearranged for the
last few weeks of the summer. The Audio Visual
presentations, pictures to music, was well supported with many first timers showing their work alongside
some excellent work from the more experienced, although it was relative new-comer Jean Goodburne
who yet again showed her rapidly developing talent with her very technical offering 'Birds'.
It is time for the Battles once more, when member clubs of the Lincolnshire Photographic Association go
head to head. Axholme hosted their first round at home, where their opponents will be Grimsby and
Ashby. Grimsby won the round with 273 points, Axholme were second with 261 and Ashby gained 239.
The next round for Axholme will be at Cleethorpes where they take on Cleethorpes Camera Club and
North East Lincs Photographic Society.
Three members have gained entry to a biennial Exhibition held at Grimsby. David Neale, Andrew Kershaw
and Geoge Fiddler have a total of nine prints accepted. A total of 100 prints are chosen from all the
entries to go forward to the competition.
Photo shoot trips are always subject to the vagaries of the weather, but members may be seen out and
about in the coming months wielding their cameras in a variety of places locally. In inclement weather,
indoor discussions, workshops etc will operate.

The Isle of Axholme Where You Live Your Local History
Adapted by Anthony Catherall
THE DRAINAGE OF THE ISLE OF AXHOLME The years between 1626 and 1719 were a time of trouble and violence in the Isle of Axholme. In 1626 Cornelius Vermuyden was granted the opportunity to drain Hatfield Levels (or Chase) that was the Kings land. At the time King Charles1 was short of money and Parliament refused to give him any except under certain conditions. He granted Vermuyden permission to drain Hatfield Chase. To be successful the surrounding lowland also had to be drained; thus the western part of the Isle of Axholme was included. The King, Vermuyden and the local tenants were each to receive one third of the drained land. At the time before the drainage the Isle was surrounded by water with the River Trent to the East, River Dun (Don) to the north, the River Torne to the west with the River Idle to both south and west. The rivers meandered fairly freely constantly changing their beds. In winter much of the land was flooded. Quite large boats could sail between Wroot, Haxey Carr and the River Trent. The low lying watery area were full of fish and fowl including Herons, Bitterns, Storks,
Cranes, Swans, Ducks, Geese, Curlews, Snipes, Redshanks, Plover, Waterhen, and Teal that were of obvious importance to the locals. Between Hatfield and Westwoodside there was about three feet of water all year round flooding about 60.000 acres. In summer some of the less flooded land dried sufficiently to be used as common pastureland. Their use was protected by the Deed of 1359 by John de Mowbray. Peat was cut for local use and some for sale in York that was said to depend on Axholme peat, as London did on Newcastle coal. Some attempts at artificial drainage had been made before Vermuyden. In the reign of Edward
111, commissioners were set up to build a channel to relieve the waters of the Idle and maintain it. Bykersdike was dug from the Isle to Stockwith to do this. Later in the reign of Henry V, commissioners cut Mare Dyke and made a sluice to try to control the waters of the Dun and short cut the waters to the Trent at Luddington. Snow Sewer and Hekdyke were also pre-Vermuyden attempts at Drainage. Vermuyden agreed to drain the area in 1626. Of the drained land the local people were to receive one third, the King one third, and Vermuyden and his shareholders called Participants were to receive one third. The work was started in 1627 and finished in 1629. About 50 Dutch workmen and Dutch equipment was used. They set up their camp at Santoft. Vermuyden’s task was to drain Hatfield Chase that was Crown land and the overflowing lands surrounding it including the western part of the Isle of Axholme. The meandering Idle River in the south was cut off at Idle Stop and the waters directed down Bykersdyke to the River Trent at Stockwith. The Dun River’s northwest branch was cut near Snaith and a five and a half mile drain called Dutch River was cut to Goole for this water. The River Torne was restricted into the new Torne river channel from near Wroot to come out to the Trent at Althorpe. Due north from Idle Stop was cut the new Idle Drain crossing the River Torne at Tunnel Pits as far as Dirtness. Here it ran parallel to a similar drain from Tudworth due west. They ran side by side to the Trent at Althorpe. High embankments were built on the right hand bank of the River Dun and on the north bank of Bykersdyke. The work was done in two years and cost £400,000 – a vast sum in those days. Continued next month

Althorpe and
Keadby
Community
Nature Area The Friends of Althorpe and Keadby
Primary School is a Registered
Charity and are currently working
on trying to secure funding for their
big plans to help improve the
school‘s outdoor environment.
The project is to develop an area of
land between the school and the
river bank together with parts of the
school field and playground. These
areas will be developed with local
community involvement for use by the local community, other schools and community groups.
The land will be developed to incorporate a wildlife area, encouraging a natural environment, an outdoor
classroom, a covered area, a picnic area, a meadow, a herb garden and sensory walk, and a creative area
incorporating willow dens, hillocks and staging.
This will benefit the whole community in the following ways:
An improved community space for the local population - for use by the residents of Keadby and
surrounding areas, Youth Club, Street Sports, local schools, cubs etc.
A community which has a better understanding of caring for the environment and sustainability.
Creating eco systems for wildlife to flourish.
A well cared for environment for the local Isle community to use.
If you can help with the Friends of Althorpe and Keadby Primary School‘s fundraising efforts, please
contact Kathryn Russell (kathryn@friendsofalthorpekeadby.co.uk). To help in our funding bid we would
also appreciate letters of support from local businesses/residents which you can send to the following

July 10th is officially Rescue Day! This
day could not occur without the tremendous work
carried out by the Rescue Day Committee and the
generosity of the many helpers and sponsors along
with our Host who have contributed and continue to
assist in making Rescue Day one of the largest of its
kind in both the UK and Europe. Our primary aim today is to bring together members
of the Emergency Services from within our region and
neighbouring regions / Counties along with other
voluntary and Aid organisations in order to provide
our communities with information and demonstration
in the promotion of Safer Roads and Waterside Safety
within our region and to the wider communities also.
It is our intention to deliver this by way of Road
Traffic Collision Demonstrations, Water Rescue
Demonstrations along with educational trailers and
stands from the Emergency Services and Aid
organisations. Our chosen charity for this year‘s
event is Help for Heroes and it is hoped that along
with the generosity of sponsors we can raise as much
money as possible for such a worthy cause. Finally, I hope as many local people can come to the
event and make it a very successful day.

North Axholme School Newsletter
‘The Times Spelling Bee’ Competition
On Thursday 1st April four of our Year 7 students
(Alexandra Bint, Katie Chester, Cameron Jarman &
Joshua Broadbent set off for ‗The Times Spelling Bee‘
local heats at Cineworld, Hull. The four students had
been chosen as they had come out as the four top spell-
ers in a spelling competition held at school.
The four students took part in a Spelling play-off where
individual contestants accumulate points for their team.
After a short break of popcorn and drink students then take part in a Quick-fire challenge, this is where
each team has two minutes to spell out as many words as possible and the team can choose, easy, medium
or hard words. The students tactically decided to choose easy words which led them to win the local
heats. They went home with a goody bag and medal and very proud of their achievement.
The semi-finals took place at Cineworld, Hull on Tuesday 18th May where the competition took the same
format as before but unfortunately the students didn‘t make it through to the finals in London. All the
students received another goody bag and have thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience.
We plan to host a ‗Times Spelling Bee‘ event at North Axholme School. This would involve Year 6 pupils
from our partner primary schools.
Alexandra, Katie, Cameron & Joshua have offered to help out and mentor the pupils sharing their tips for
success. Year 11 Prom
Year 11 students celebrated the end of their compulsory education
with a Prom held at Doncaster Rugby Club. Almost 100 staff and students attended,
arriving in style in everything from an articulated lorry to a tandem.
The evening included a formal 3-course meal, disco and photographer taking individual and group photos!!
Behaviour was exemplary and various staff at the Rugby Club were kind enough to comment at the end of
the evening on how polite and well behaved the students had been.
Many thanks go to those who assisted with the organisation of the Prom.

Althorpe and Keadby School Newsletter Teachers Visit China After days of rush and panic, Mrs Johnson and I finally arrived in China. It was very
surreal being on the other side of the world—going to be bed as the children at A&K
were all having last breaktime. We were welcomed like Queens by Mr Li (the head
teacher) and the staff/children at Zhongshan Centre primary school. There were
children holding banners and umbrellas for us everywhere.
The children spoke very good English, especially in Y6, where a pupil called Amanda
translated for us.
We gave talks about our school and played games like ‗Simon Says‘ to help them learn
the parts of the body. We also taught them a traditional country dance which Mr Li
liked so much that, 2 days later, 60 children performed the dance for us on the
playground, it was magnificent. Last Saturday, there was a family sports day and 100
children performed the dance for their parents. How fantastic! We also taught a Y2
class our ‗Wake up!‘ song. They loved it and have since used it in an English singing
competition that they won.
Everyday, we tried new foods. There were lots of different kinds of fish, as Dalian is by
the sea. We drank many different types of tea at a tea ceremony and have brought back
some for the children to try. One night, we went to Mr Li‘s house to make dumplings
with his family. We had a huge feast and enjoyed singing songs around his dining table.

Crowle Colts Junior Football Club
supports charity KitAid We have all faced the dilemma about what to do with the clothes that we no longer wear. Should we
leave them to fester in the wardrobe, perhaps throw them away or maybe find somebody else that can
use them? Now imagine that same quandary for a football club, with nearly 200 football shirts, shorts and
socks.
Over the years, Crowle Colts Junior Football Club has been fortunate to have been supported by local,
generous sponsors, who have helped to regularly provide the players with new football kits. As fantastic as
this has been, the old kits have been left sad and lonely, waiting on the substitute‘s bench for the day when
once again they could play the beautiful game!
That is until now; Crowle Colts have thrown their support behind a campaign to recycle no longer
wanted football kit, which will benefit children and adults in some of the poorest parts of the World. The
kit is being donated to charity KitAid, which has Graham Taylor OBE as its Patron, and last year sent 750
boxes of kit (27,500 shirts/kits) to 35 different countries.
KitAid, a charity created in 1998, donates unwanted football shirts to children and adults across Africa,
India, Eastern Europe and other developing countries and was set up by Derrick Williams, a passionate
football fan. When he visited Tanzania as a volunteer with Water Aid (the water and sanitation develop-
ment charity that helps people in Africa and Asia, to bring safe, clean water supplies to their villages), he
saw how they had little opportunity or equipment to play the game they loved. Children often played
barefooted with a football made out of tied plastic bags.
A picture taken of a boy wearing a ragged Liverpool shirt was the spark that created KitAid, as everyone
who saw it wanted to help. Initially one box of kit was collected from friends and colleagues within Three
Valleys Water and this was sent to one of the villages that Derrick had visited. From that point KitAid has
snowballed with over 100,000 shirts being received by people across the world.
Crowle Colts have a long held philosophy that all children should have the opportunity to play football if
they want to, and that the sport is there to be enjoyed by all. It is therefore fitting that less fortunate chil-
dren should benefit by using unused Crowle football kits. If any other sports clubs want to support kit aid
then they can find out more at www.3valleys.co.uk/kitaid or email kitaid@3valleys.co.uk.

The Beautiful
Game
As I write this, the sun is shining but
more importantly, South Africa has just
drawn with Mexico in the first game of
the Football World Cup. By the time
you read this, you will either be
enjoying a feast of football or vowing
that you never want to see a football
let alone a whole football match ever
again!
It‘s a bit like that with the Church.
Depending on your experience of
Church in the past, you either go week
by week or ignore the place altogether.
But just supposing that England gets
into the final, would those of you who
have had too much football be tempted
to watch and celebrate? Or if you are
really opposed to football might you
not be tempted back for a quick burst
of ―Match of the Day‖ on a cold
winter‘s evening?
Whatever the weather, the Church is
there for you. No matter how long it
has been since you came to Church,
‗the Lord of the Church‘ is waiting to
greet you. Come back and meet Him,
any Sunday, at a Church near you.
Rev Timothy Buckley
Rector of The Crowle Group of
Parishes and of St Oswald’s Church
Althorpe with Keadby
