Childrens playtime banned!

Neighbours near a school in Yorkshire have complained about the noise of children playing so the school has had to ban afternoon break and stagger the amount of children allowed out at lunchtime to prevent a noise abatement order being given

I live near a school and I love the sound of children playing in the playground,they are only being children,they need to play,run and be out in the fresh air

Let them out to be children, playtime is important!

I think children from about 4 to 7 get 10 minutes in the afternoon.

Must be all the swingers being put off their swing.....

So do i, the only objection i have is the parents blocking the roads at 9pm and 3pm.

Perhaps these complainants should get a life afterall kids having fun and laughing etc, is so much better than the noise from roadworks

Apparently the school has even put up soundproofed fences to prevent a total playtime ban? never even knew such things existed

Yeh cos they're running away from the stinky boys

I do remember a time at the school near me,it was lunchtime so they were all out playing when there was a MASSIVE clap of thunder,the whole school screamed in unison,I wonder what the neighbours of the school in Yorshire would have thought about that

Here occasionally, but mostly somewhere else

Was there not a school there when they moved in?

If not, they should have objected at the planning stage.

If you live near a school - you must expect noise at certain times of the day. Just as if you lived near a road...

There are a couple of schools near me - admittedly, not close enough to hear them, but there is something so innocent and...oh I don't know, just nice about the sound of children playing and laughing.

Wow...what a miserable world we live in if even the sound of children at play offends!

would hazard a guess that the complainers have raised their kids and they left home...

Most schools are in built up areas, what next, a total ban?

A shame there isn't any chimney sweeps needed anymore eh Wishy !

Years ago we went to _iew a house that backed onto a primary school the kids were all out playing in the sun, making loads of noise. The estate agent must have thought it would bother us and said it is only for a couple of times a day and you could put a different fence up so you couldn't see them. So it seems they had trouble selling it because of the schoolkids.

Some people are weird, we bought the house.

the above comment about was there not a scholalready there?,reminded me of famous tv personalities and pop stars who move to the country to get away from the crowded city and then complained about the smells of the country side(the horse manure etc)and the noise of the animals like the cows mooing etc,they know exactly what is involved but just want to change everything to suit them i am afraid!.

They must take education seriously round your way - i'm guessing the kids will be too knackered to make much noise!

"I didnt think there was a law that governed noise in the day time?"

There is a law against noise at any time, I think but am not sure the levels differ depending on the time of day and common sense should prevail, children playing on a designated playground is a natural thing.

If anyone should be chastised for it then surely the council are to blame for giving planning permission for a school near houses or houses near schools (perhaps many years ago before PC went crazy)

That said the Council in Darlaston gave permission for a new housing complex opposite a school recently, the houses were of a modern terraced style and the provision of parking facilities for residents was not imposed on the planners so not only has it made traffic conditions worse but the extra vehicles parked outside the new houses has added to the dangers for the children.

I have never fallen foul of Planning Authorities but some of the projects they pass make me wonder if they even looked at what they were doing whilst some of those they reject appear to be for stupid reasons.

They couldn't get their kids to school until 9pm because there was a convoy blocking the road, well that's what I heard anyway!

i live within hearing distance of a nursey school (and a senior school)and its great to hear the sounds from the nursery school of the toddlers running around and playing outdoors!,i wonder what the people who complained about the yorkshire school do when they go to a crowded beach on holiday and kids are playing and enjoying themselves?.

I think it is OK to make noise during the day, but!!! It is not the noise, but the regularity that you can complain about. For instance, if you have a party on a Wednesday afternoon one week and the neighbours are inconvenienced, tough! But if it happens every day or even every week, it is open to complaint!

Happened to me playing music in the garden on one day.Neighbour complained. Info was from Environmental Health.

Just leave the school and bulldoze the houses! Love the sound of kids having fun

I understand the need for laws governing noise (pollution) as well... bottom line is a bit of give and take and consideration of others. I would expect teenagers to understand that screaming and shouting at 3 am in a residential area is not acceptable but children playing in a playground during school break ... no worries at all.

I love the sound of playing children - it means happiness and being alive, - then I dont mind the sound of people being happy - full stop!

what bitter, twisted, evil individuals...! Children are already having their freedom and innocence capped...this is another form of abuse altogether! to actually deny them their right to freedom within a protected area.

would love to know who these frickin individuals are that are at home in the day and what they did when they were kids.

as a parent i'd be making my own protest and take my kids out of that school until it was over-turned, i'd also be seeking the support of other parents. i certainly wouldnt be accepting it

i know that an abatement can be served if noise is a nuisance or for health reasons, but I thought it had to be at a certain level.

i a m so horrified and saddened.

it's seriously fucked up

the steam is blowing!

Reminds a story I was told of about Sting, the former "Police" frontman. He moved into the Wiltshire countryside west of Salisbury and moaned about the noise of the planes flying from the fairly nearby Boscombe Down airbase. OK! But this is where it gets silly. Some of you may know that Sting has his own aircraft, but it is no Piper Cherokee or even a Lear jet. Oh no, it`s only a fekkin Boing 747 jumbo jet!!! Even dafter is where he is/was allowed to keep it ..... Boscombe Down airbase!!!! Doh!

But back to the OP.

It is usually so quiet where I live and it used to be so great to here the laughing and occasional shrieks from the next-door`d grandchildren when they were smaller and came to visit. In my job I`m frequently marooned by playgrounds full of children of all ages. As long as they leave me alone to sleep in peace, I`m quite happy too have them around.

I remember one of my mums friends moving to one of these 50+ only places and my mum was totally freaked out at the idea. Not only becuase you'd only get new neighbours when someone died but that you wouldn't be able to hear kids out playing and being kids.

I love the way when the bell rings at the end of break all the kids scream! Makes my day.
