The improvements include a play area, skate park and tennis courts! 🛹
Chair of Three Rivers District Council, Cllr Debbie Morris, opened the facilities and expressed delight at the"fabulous refurbishment with lots of new and exciting equipment for the local community to use".Featured at the refurbished facilities are an outdoor calisthenic gym, skate park with a bump track, and a table tennis table.
Along with providing facilities for people to enjoy, an emphasis has been placed on the development of new habitats to encourage biodiversity.Log piles houses, a stag beetle loggery, a reptile habitat bank, bug hotels, bird boxes and a seasonal pond are also all included. Pupils and teachers at Maple Cross JMI School assisted with the construction of the reptile bank and bug hotel, which have been made from recycled materials.
Hannah Trickett, co-headteacher at Maple Cross, added:"The children were galvanised to make a visible difference to where they play and were passionate to enhance the natural world."

Association between adherence to a low carbohydrate dietary (LCD) pattern with breast milk characteristics and oxidative markers in infants’ urine: a cross-sectional study - Journal of Health, Population and NutritionBackground Breast milk (BM) is a dynamic fluid that varies over time and between women. The variations in BM components are most likely associated with maternal diet quality. This study aimed to assess adherence to a low carbohydrate dietary (LCD) pattern with oxidative stress markers of BM characteristics and infants’ urine. Materials and methods In this cross-sectional study 350 breastfeeding mothers and their infants were recruited. BM samples were collected from mothers, and urine specimens were obtained from each infant. To evaluate LCD scores, subjects were divided into 10 deciles according to the percent of energy obtained from carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. Determination of total antioxidant activity was conducted using the ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP), 2, 2′-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARs), and Ellman’s assay. Biochemical assays of samples including calcium, total protein, and triglyceride level were also performed using commercial kits. Results Participants with the greatest LCD pattern adherence were placed into the last quartile (Q4), and those with the minimum LCD were in the first quartile (Q1). Individuals in the highest LCD quartile had significantly higher levels of milk FRAP, thiol, and protein, as well as infant urinary FRAP and lower milk MDA levels than those in the lowest quartile. Multivariate linear regression analyses indicated that higher score of the LCD pattern was associated with a higher level of milk thiol, protein, and lower level of milk MDA (p | 0.05). Conclusion Our findings show that adherence to a LCD, as defined by a low level of carbohydrates in daily food intake, is linked with improved BM quality and markers of oxidative stress in infant urine.
