Warwickshire County Council has written to parents / carers who are eligible for benefits related free school meals to let them know about financial help with significantly increased living costs.

Warwickshire County Council will be providing vouchers to support those families during these challenging times. The two cost of living payments will be sent in November 2022 and February 2023. If you have questions about this support please visit their website.


What If This Road
Sheenagh Pugh

What if this road, that has held no surprises
these many years, decided not to go
home after all; what if it could turn
left or right with no more ado
than a kite-tail? What if its tarry skin
were like a long, supple bolt of cloth,
that is shaken and rolled out, and takes
a new shape from the contours beneath?
And if it chose to lay itself down
in a new way, around a blind corner,
across hills you must climb without knowing
what’s on the other side, who would not hanker
to be going, at all risks? Who wants to know
a story’s end, or where a road will go?
