Editor’s Letter...
The Autumn season has arrived
officially however it feels like we have
missed a season! Where was
summer? Did anyone see it??
As the nights draw in and the heating goes on,
we prepare ourselves for the new season’s
events, the Harvest Festival, Halloween and Guy
Fawkes Night. Maizie Maze have their ever
popular Shriek week and Pumpkin Hunt running
through the half term week at the end of
October.
If you are aware of any events taking place
between November and December, please let
me know, The Arrow is now distributed to
6000 homes in the Sprotbrough, Warmsworth, Barnburgh and Harlington areas.
There is a notice in this month’s Arrow
regarding industrial action effecting the Green
bin collection over the next few weeks. All of
Doncaster is affected, however there are some
areas where the recycle boxes, blue and clear
bags are affected also.
The deadline for the November issue for
advertising and articles is Wednesday 17th
October. The Arrow will be delivered from
Friday 26th October.
Best Wishes

Local talent shines on
the Mic
Ben Corbett from Doncaster has been given the
big thumbs up by judges at the Open Mic UK
auditions. Along with other impressive acts, Ben
has made it through to the Regional Finals and will
now be performing at the live stages of Open Mic
UK 2012.
Open Mic UK 2012 is the exciting national talent
competition which searches for the UK’s best
singers, singer/songwriters, rappers and vocalists of
all genres who perform either covers or original
material.
One contestant who has evidently caught the
judge’s eye is local talent Ben, now in the running
to compete for a place in the National Final within
The O2 in London. Thousands of hopefuls entered
nationwide and hundreds of auditionees queued
patiently on the day for their turn to impress the
judges. Those who made it through the audition
stage will now take part in a live Regional head to
head battle alongside the best talent in their area.
They’ll be performing in front of hundreds of
audience members and a professional judging panel
to win a place at the National Grand Final.
For more information go to the website
www.openmicuk.co.uk or better still come down
and support your local talent performing! You can
purchase tickets from the website
www.openmicuk.co.uk or on the door subject to
availability or
from Ben
Corbett. Tickets
are £8 each.

Bin & Recycling Collection
Changes Due to Industrial
Action
Green bin collections
Due to industrial action announced by UNITE members working for SITA
UK, residents are advised that there will be no green bin collections in
Doncaster from Friday 21st September until Monday 15th October.
Green bin collections have been temporarily suspended so resources can be redirected to minimise
disruptions to black bin collections during the period of industrial action. Household Waste
Recycling Centres will remain open as usual and can be used by residents to dispose of
their household and garden waste.
Black bin collections
Residents are being asked to put their black bins out on their usual collection day, during their usual
black bin collection weeks only.
Green box collections
Green box collections for the majority of the borough will remain unaffected by the
action. However, households which usually have collections on a Monday or a Friday will see this
recycling service reduced to every other week until Friday 12th of October.
Residents living in Bentley, Denaby, Denaby Main, Intake, Mexborough, Old Denaby, Wadworth
and Warmsworth who usually have their collection on a Friday should only put out their green box,
blue bag and clear bag on Friday 28th September and Friday 12 October.
Residents living in Balby, Burghwallis, Campsall, Skellow, Sprotbrough and Tickhill who usually have
their collection on a Monday should only put out their green box, blue bag and clear bag on Monday
1st October.
All waste and recycling services should return to normal on Monday 15th October.
Clinical waste services and business waste and business recycling services will be unaffected by the
action.

A new identity. The same community. The new name for Doncaster College for the Deaf.
The college, formerly known as Doncaster College for the Deaf has changed its name to
reflect the diverse range of learners it attracts from across the region.
Graded ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted in May 2012 for its Social Care provision, Alan Robinson, Executive
Principal of the college said, “Our education provision has diversified over the years and we have decided
to change the name of our college to reflect this. The name Communication Specialist College -
Doncaster strongly emphasises what the organisation is about in 2012 and moving forward”.
The college can meet the educational, training and support needs of individuals who have a range of
communication needs including Deafness/Hearing Impaired, Autism/Aspergers and Learning
Disabilities/Difficulties.
Our individualised learning environment offers a unique approach for learners. We remain at the forefront
of provision and are extremely proud of our achievements and our learners. “We look forward to
welcoming new learners through our doors and sharing our successes throughout the year.”
We warmly invite you to join us at our open days on 10th October 2012, 8th December 2012 (family day)
and 6th February 2013, to find out more about our extensive facilities and the exciting range of educational
provision.
For further information on the courses offered at Communication Specialist College - Doncaster
please visit www.deaf-trust.co.uk or call 01302 386720 and ask to speak to one of the Pathway
Managers .
