First steps Nursery

Had a good visit to first Steps nursery this afternoon and was able to see much of the good work that is being carried out there by local dedicated staff.

It was also good to be able to talk to the chief executive of First steps about their future plans in the community of Twerton.

I have always been a supporter of First Steps nursery and was one of the people in on the early set up of  First Steps back over twenty years ago and have been pleased to see them grow from strength to strength.

Newton Road improvements

We have asked for the road sign at the rear of Newton Road on the Junction of Shaws Way to be repainted or replaced.

We have reached agreement with Curo Housing association to look into the poor kerbing along Newton road and to replace it as soon as possible.

We have also asked for one of the two litter bins that are located outside of the cost cutter shop to be relocated to the bus stop outside of St Michael's School as we believe that this will lesson the litter problem on this part of Newton Road.

We are also pleased to see that the broken sign pictured outside of First Steps Nursery has been replaced with a new sign.

We would hope that whoever vandalised the old sign would leave the new one alone.
