Ossett

A former

student of

Ossett

School, Vikki

Batey worked

from the age

of 13 in an

Ossett based

salon and went on to attend Thomas Danby

College for 2 years, where she achieved levels 1

and 2 in hairdressing. She returned to college in

2006 to complete her level 3 qualification.

In May 2008, Vikki caught the travelling bug and

embarked on a round the world trip, hairdressing in

hostels throughout the world, including America,

Fiji, New Zealand, Australia, Singapore, Thailand,

Loas and India.

One of Vikki’s longer stays was in Melbourne,

Australia where she was very lucky to quickly find

herself hairdressing in an exclusive area of

Melbourne called Brighton. In the 5 months, she

spent in Melbourne, Vikki worked hard, partied

hard, lived life to the full and made some life long

friends. Her claim to fame from this time was that

she did the hair of Jason Donovan’s mum on the

night she was heading out with Olivia Newton

John. But then, she was used to rubbing

shoulders in the salon with famous Aussie

sportsmen and Neighbours stars!

If you ask Vikki how she spent her time on her

travels, other than hairdressing, the list she reels

off is amazing: snowboarding, climbing, caveing,

abseiling, trekking, bungy jumping, white water

rafting and elephant and camel treks.

Whilst travelling and risking life and limb with

extreme sports, Vikki realised that she wanted more

responsibility and would like to run her own

business. Although she was offered sponsorship to

stay in Australia, Ossett and Horbury beckoned and

on returning home she was offered a wonderful

opportunity to open her own salon in Horbury.

After a week of refurbishment, Victoria Hair is now

open for business. Vikki is keen to stress that it

wouldn’t have been possible without help from her

mum, dad and grandma. She added, “I would also

like to say a big Thank You to everyone who helped

with the refurbishment of the salon - it was an

intense week!”

There’s one thing for sure, with Vikki’s travelling

adventures, her clients will never be stuck for

interesting conversation in the salon!

Visit Vikki at her official opening day on the 15thAugust, where you will be offered a glass of bubblyand discounted bookings.Victoria Hair, 10 High Street, Horbury, Tel: 01924 277123

Janet, Andrew and Amy Bland would like to thank all thefamily, friends and Ossett businesses that supported themin the sponsored walk on Sunday, 5th of July at BoltonAbbey.

Granny Knows BestSome Natural Remedies forBites & Stings

MOSQUITO BITES1 Mix 3 spoons of baking soda with a

little water; smear on sting.

2 Rub the afflicted area with the inside

of a banana skin.

3 Put ice on the spot immediately after

being stung.

4 Apply tea tree oil on the sting.

5 Squeeze basil leaves and apply on

sting.

6 Rub some lemon on the sting.

7 Saturate a cotton ball in vinegar and

put on the sting.

To get rid of mosquitoes

Drip 3 drops of geranium oil into

a burner.

Seek medical attention if you are at allworried about any bites or stings

BAKING SODA is one of the most

versatile household remedies, quickly

easing itchiness of bites and stings. To

use, mix a few teaspoons with a small

amount of water to form a paste and

apply directly to skin.

LAVENDER, PEPPERMINT, OR TEATREE OILS neutralize toxicity and reduce

inflammation and itchiness. Add a few

drops to the baking soda mixture to

increase effectiveness, or apply a drop or

two directly to the bite. Any of the oils can

be mixed with honey (a few drops of oil to

a teaspoon of honey) for additional

disinfectant properties.

Has American footballtaken the local area bystorm?

For those who know little about American Football,Ossett School student, Matthew Clayton, explains alittle bit about this increasingly popular sport.

With the risingpopularity of theYorkshire Rams andeven Ossett Schoolparticipating in a non –

contact version of thesport, it’s starting to look like Gridiron has ahome here in Yorkshire.

How American Football is PlayedThe game is played by two teams of 11 playersand consists of 4 quarters, each of 15 minutes.The objective of the game is to advance downto field the score a touchdown; this is worth 6points (with 1 extra point if converted).

The NFL The NFL (National Football League) is theprofessional league for American football inthe United States; it consists of 32 teams.These teams are then split up into the NFC(National Football conference) and the AFC(American Football Conference), and then into8 regional divisions. After a full 16 gameregular season, the teams with the bestrecords progress through to the playoffs; withthe aim of playing in the Super Bowl and beingcrowned NFL Champions.

NFL in the U.KFrom 2007 the NFL has been staging a game inthe U.K each season. Both games to date havebeen played at the new Wembley Stadium inLondon. In the first game in 2007, 40,000tickets sold out within 90 minutes of release,giving an indication of just how popular thesport is in the UK.

BURGLAR ALARMS

Garden Magic have kindly offered advice onthe jobs to be done in the garden startingearly August.

Cut down early-flowering perennialsto encourage a second flush of colourRemove faded flowers on perennials such as

Lupins for example. Early pruning often

encourages a second flush of flowers late in

the season. Cut the

flower-spike down to

just above a new shoot

or leaf, and give each

plant a generous liquid

feed to encourage

fresh growth.

Prune basket flowers/container plants(stopping technique)Pinch out the growing tips of basket and

container plants like Chrysanthemums to

encourage them to produce bushy even

growth and more lovely flowers. Pinch out

shooting tips in July/early Aug latest.

Sow seeds & Plant out SummerBedding PlantsSow Biennials seeds like forget-me-nots,

foxgloves as soon as new fresh seed is

available. Finish planting out summer bedding

plants in borders,

baskets and containers,

making sure to help fill

any gaps with large

plants like, fuchsias or

pelargonium’s.

FruitcropsEnjoy the

fruits in your garden by now picking everyday

rhubarb, strawberries, raspberries, currants

and gooseberries. Remember to net fruit

bushes to keep birds away, but it is important

to check the netting

everyday to ensure that

no birds have become

trapped.

Fruit treesThe natural July drop

of fruit will have helped thin out a heavy fruit

crop, but it is worth lending a hand and

picking off any small, damaged or diseased

fruits so that remaining good fruit has at least

10cm (4in) apart to grow in August.

Pests and diseasesUse a forceful jet from a garden hose to

knock aphids off Buddleia (butterfly tree) and

other garden plants that attract “our little

friends”. Spray roses (spray in the morning) to

protect them against problems with mildew,

black-spot or rust.

Keeping Your ChildSafe in the Sun

There are three steps you can take to protect yourchild from the sun: shade, clothes and cream.SHADE This is the most important step. As far as possible,avoid being in the direct sun between 10am and4pm from April to September in the UK. Keepyour child in the shade if outside. CLOTHESThis is the second most important step. As far aspossible, wear loose-fitting, long-sleeved tops, longshorts or skirts and sunhats when out in the sun.Sunhats should ideally cover the ears and neck aswell as shade the face. For all children, darkcoloured clothes give more protection. Special UV-protective clothing is available. This is particularlyuseful for swimming out of doors or for the beach. CREAMThis is the third most important step and shouldnot be used in place of steps one and two. Put ahigh factor suncream (SPF 25 or higher) on theareas not covered by clothes. In particular, payattention to the nose and upper cheeks. If yourchild’s sunhat does not cover his or her neck, ears

and forehead, then cover those with cream too.Don’t forget to put suncream on your child’s feet ifhe or she is wearing sandals. Buy suncream thathas a high star rating (measured out of five stars)as this gives good protection against both UVA andUVB rays. Remember to use water-resistant creamsif swimming or sweating a lot, and to reapply anysuncream every few hours.

Remember that suncream alone does not giveenough protection against UV damage.
