Encouraging signs on Old Buckenham car parking

Things are progressing
The August Old Buckenham newsletter will be available around the village over the next few days. (The Six Villages newsletter, often distributed at the same time, is not expected to be available until Tuesday 31 July so your copy may not come through your letter box before then).
Reports in the August edition of meetings early in July about car parking for parents with children at the various schools were rather negative so it was great to read this today on Facebook:

What a fantastic meeting was held between the Old Buckenham village hall committee, parish council and parents at Old Buckenham Primary school last night.
There was a real team spirit, everyone willing to contribute and help and bags of positivity regarding the car park used by parents at the school.
We are delighted to announce the parents will be taking on the administering of permits and monitoring the car park from September. Money from the permits will go towards maintaining the car park and buying exciting new things for the school - to be decided by the pupils.
Please if any parents attending the primary school could volunteer a small amount of their time to help us with this venture it would be much appreciated. The more help we can get the easier this will be. Every little helps and all that!

If you think you could help in any way, whether a parent of schoolchildren or not, then the person to contact is Amanda via tlstc@outlook.com
