THERE'S no more hanging around for the members of one North Yorkshire out-of-school club.

They've now got their own minibus to get them about.

Staff at the First Steps Day Nursery at Carlton Miniott, near Thirsk, used to use their own vehicles to pick up and drop off children.

But now, the nursery has a £3,500 minibus to make life much easier for those young members living in South Otterington and South Kilvington.

The 12-seater, bought out of school funds, will be used to pick up and drop off the 20 youngsters, aged four to 12, who use the club.

The club runs after school during school term and all day during the holidays.

Owner Sarah Clark said: "We thought it more viable to have a minibus. It will really help with getting the children to and from the club."
