MEET LUCY ~ THE LOCKSMITH
My name is Lucy, I am your Local Lindfield Lady Locksmith.
Thanks also to the community at large who visited our stall. We made a record profit of £375
which has been matched by Barclays Bank in HaywardsHeath. But this isn¹t where our sup-
port ended. This term has seen Blackthorns as the grateful recipients of Barclays community
project. We are now the proud owners of a summerhouse, benches, flower planters and a
seat around the tree outside the Year 3 classroom.
A team of five members of Barclays staff were on hand to put it all together and everything
went to plan - including the weather! The area has been dramatically improved and will now
be able to be used as an "outside classroom" for group activities, role play and guided read-
ing.
Mrs Garwood from Barclays Financial Services Department in Haywards Heath said "It was
really wonderful for us to see how much this meant for the children and how much difference
Barclays could make to the community".
"The playhouse is fantastic because there are loads of things that we play
with and I think it was built in only one day and I think
that's
impressive!" Laura Mitchell

As the excitement gradually builds towards the London Olympics in 2012, Lindfield Primary
School will be playing its part in developing talented sportsmen and women of the future.
We are fortunate at Lindfield to have a blend of sporting expertise within our school which is
complemented by the support of parents and outside coaches. During the last few weeks
outside experts have worked with our children in tag
rugby, skipping and cricket forming a part of the devel-
opment of the Sports Partnership initiative in Mid-
Sussex. In addition our school has developed strong
links with local clubs including Lindfield Juniors FC and
Lindfield CC which enables our children to access
quality coaching and playing opportunities.
Please contact Rachel Anscombe (PE Coordinator) or Bob White (Head teacher) for more
information about sports opportunities at Lindfield Primary School on 01444 482524.
Perhaps like his headstone in Walstead Burial Ground, Frederick William Lanchester
is little known and widely forgotten in this country. He is better known in Japan than
England, unless may be you attended the university named after him, but now
renamed Coventry University. Not many Englishman have had this honour
bestowed on them - even fewer have had it removed!
A genius and visionary, F. W. Lanchester was born in London on the 23rd October
1868. He studied at the Royal College of Science, and spent much of his life in the
Midlands. At the age of 28 he built England's first gasoline-powered car and subse-
quently established the Lanchester Car Company. He was responsible for many sig-
nificant inventions in the automobile industry, including disc brakes, automatic
transmission, power steering, four-wheel drive, fuel injection and low voltage ignition.
Lanchester filed over 400 patents ranging from a colour photography system to com-
ponents for the reproduction of music.
However Lanchester's true interest was mechanical flight. He was the foremost per-
son to propound, the theory of flight based on the vortex theory in a paper delivered
in June 1894. Many other papers followed culminating in his 1907 treatise on aero-
dynamics entitled 'Aerial Flight.' These works were a major contribution to the sci-
ence of aeronautics at the time.
After the outbreak of WW1, Lanchester became convinced of the need for a mathe-
matical analysis of the relative strengths of opposing battlefield forces to describe
the effectiveness of aircraft. He conducted quantitative
studies of casualties in land, sea and air battles, to
arrive at the two Lanchester Laws - the Linear Law of
Combat and N-Squared Law of Combat. These were
published in his seminal work, 'Aircraft in Warfare - the
dawn of the fourth arm.'
Then in 1962, Dr Taoko applied the theories to sales and marketing strategies.
These have since been widely applied by Japanese corporations with over 2 mil-
lion books sold on that subject in Japan.
Many regard the application of Lanchester's theories as being responsible for the
Japanese focus on competitive advantage and market share resulting in their post
war economic success. Perhaps this is why Japanese visitors pay homage to the
headstone of F.W. Lanchester in Walstead Burial Ground. A headstone that few, if
any, locals knew existed.

Newhaven Youth marching band and Burgess Hill Youth Marching Band led the procession
and later entertained us in the arena. The number
of stalls was nearing 100 and most stall holders I
have spoken to made lots of money for their chari-
ties.
As part of the challenge of the trip, I have to raise £1, 900 as my contribution to the overall
cost. So far, I have raised £80.00 by holding a tombola at a Brownie meeting, £100 from an
India evening and £55 from selling quiz sheets and Indian snacks.
I have received £250 from Haywards Heath Division, £100 from Haywards Heath Rural
District and I have also received £100.00 from my school, Region automatically deducted
£285 from the cost as their contribution.
On the 31st of March 2007 I held a disco for Brownies from Ardingly, Horsted Keynes,
Lindfield and some Haywards Heath Brownies at The Bent Arms Hotel in Lindfield.
The tickets cost £4.50, this included food such as pizza, crisps etc, and a live DJ.
We played games, danced and at the end some awards were given out for best dancer,
most helpful, most energetic etc, these winners got a small easter egg each! One of the
leaders even got one for great dancing!
I would like to thank everyone that came to the disco, eveyone that helped and Howard at
The Bent Arms.
If anyone would like to help me reach my target of £1,900 please write to 1st Haywards

It was then Key Stage Two's turn. With Year Six quite
tired from run-
ning with recep-
tion lots of the
children still
managed to reach the top target of 30 laps. It was
funny when Year Four's Ian Lester, who has a broken
leg was wheel-barrowed around the traced by Miss
Smith and Mrs Ripley and he was heard to exclaim
"I'm glad I got to take part!"
The FOBs set up a water station to fill up the hot
cheetah like children with provided fruit as well. They also had another stall for parents with
scrumptious cakes and hot beverages on sale.
"It was a great afternoon and I think every one enjoyed it" Mrs Schofield (headteacher) was
heard to say.
But the health kick doesn't stop there! Blackthorns is going Bananas this Village Day, with our
theme: Eat 5 a Day - a celebration of Fruit and Vegetables. There was lots of fruity fun leading
up to Village Day with a non-uniform day being the first opportunity to show off their tasty cre-
ations. During the day there were lots of activities looking at healthy eating and ways in which
we can save the planet by using less packaging, which of course links to our Eco School sta-
tus.
Children have been encouraged to join our infamous walking parade dressed as their favourite
fruit or vegetable, in what promises to be a very mouth-watering display! Don't forget to wave
at us but please don't bite!
