A tiny village school is soon to celebrate its 110 birthday-against all expectations. Five years ago it seems certain to close but parents and other villagers fought the local education authority and raised funds to keep it open. It is now ending its first term as a school run by the village community and the villagers are just proud of their achievement.They were furious when education chiefs tried to make them send the village children to other school further away because the number of pupils at the village school was too few. The villagers started a huge campaign to raise money. They collected enough to hire a teacher and begin to help with school cleaning, lunch supervision and lessons. Now the school is doing well and it seems as if it will continue to run int the future.
