BERNARD PLATT SAINTS Community Development Foundation have taken over The Shining Lights Centre in Sutton Manor. The Shining Lights Centre has been a vital part of the Sutton community since its opening on the March 14 2005 hosting a wide range of clubs and activities for the community. Steve Leonard, Saints Community Development Foundations Director said: “After a long Covid delayed process, Saints Foundation can finally announce a partnership with Sutton Manor Primary school which sees us taking over the Shining Lights Centre in Sutton Manor. The schools Headteacher Monica Gladman has made no secret of the fact that they school and its governors lead by Mr Ernie Benbow wanted the centre back open with community-based activities. I am glad to say that we are in a position, after discussions with most of the previous user groups to have them back on board and starting back very shortly if not already.
The Leavenworth Times
Last year, the annual breakfast of the Leavenworth Public Schools Education Foundation was canceled because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The event returned this year. But the 20th annual Foundation Breakfast was conducted in a virtual format.
“We are adjusting to the times,” Foundation Director Catey Edwards said in a program that was livestreamed Tuesday on the internet.
Ahead of Tuesday’s program, donors to the foundation received boxes that included pancake mix and bacon sticks.
Edwards said the “breakfast in a box” was a way for foundation members “to celebrate with you as we show our appreciation for you.”
