BRIGHTON Hill open evening: Brighton Hill Community College is now the catchment secondary school for children from Hatch Warren.

Prospective parents with children due to start there next September are reminded that they are able to have a look around the school on Tuesday, from 7pm to 9pm.

This new date is different from that published in The Gazette's free guide to secondary schools a few weeks ago.

HAPPY birthday and good luck: On a personal note, my brother, Vince Butcher, who also lives in Hatch Warren, took part in the Great South Run on Sunday.

Mr Butcher only started running just over a year ago, and he runs in memory of our mother, who died last year from Primary Biliary Cirrhosis (PBC).

He will be raising funds for the PBC Foundation.

I wish him lots of luck and would also like to say happy birthday as the big race takes place on his birthday!
