Can you BE Smart with Coach Dianne from Glow North Yorkshire?

During a busy morning, it’s easy to let breakfast fall low in your list of priorities, but taking just a few minutes to eat breakfast can really make a difference to your day.

• Breakfast provides the body and brain with fuel after an overnight fast which is where the name originates from - breaking the fast! If you don’t eat breakfast you are effectively running on empty, a bit like trying to start your car with no diesel.

• It is recommended that your breakfast should be eaten within two hours of waking.

• Breakfast can be good for your waistline too, research shows those who eat breakfast are less likely to be overweight and more likely to be within their ideal weight range compared with breakfast skippers.

• Breakfast also restores the glycogen levels in the liver which are depleted overnight. This fuel is produced by carbohydrates and is essential for the brain to function improving your memory and concentration levels. It increases the production of serotonin your happy hormone as well as increasing the production of the stress hormone cortisone.

• The NHS says “Eating breakfast has long term health benefits. It can reduce obesity, high blood pressure, heart disease and diabetes.”

Suggestions: • 30g porridge made with milk and add 1 tbsp sunflower and 1 tbsp pumpkin seeds and a fist full of blueberries.

• 2 medium slices of seeded granary bread and one boiled or poached egg.

• 2 scrambled eggs, 1 slice smoked salmon and 2 rice cakes or 1 slice rye bread.

2 new businesses - a real labour of love!

Since starting Holistic Bliss UK in March, Kirsty has been pleasantly surprised with the level of support and interest from customers across Northallerton.

We spoke to her about her new business, “People have commented on how nice the Healing Shack is and how they feel relaxed and can enjoy their treatments away from the stress of daily life. I am constantly doing training and learning new techniques and it’s exciting to be able to offer new treatments to customers. The Healing Shack is located in my garden and people can relate to me as a Mum starting my own business.

I couldn’t have done it without the help of my husband Mark, who literally ‘built my business!’ ”.

“Purdie”, as he is affectionately known as, of Purdie’s Garden and Property Maintenance constructed the Healing

Shack as part of his new business venture. “I was obviously happy to help Kirsty and we’ve received some great compliments from her clients about how nice the Healing Shack is and how well it has been constructed. I have over 30 years experience in Carpentry, Fencing, Decking, Garden Maintenance and in building Sheds and Summer Houses”.

The business has been recently started after he took some time out due to ill health. “I started doing odd jobs for people again to help recover from an accident and it’s just gradually got busier as I’ve recovered and so now I am expanding and travelling to Stokesley, Bedale and the surrounding areas working on all sorts of projects”.

Purdie has over 30 years experience in handyman/property maintenance and gardening. He is offering free quotations and a full garden planning and design service. Purdie’s has a great foundation for the future and it all started in his own garden. ..................................................................

My Vintage World stock a wide and varied range of vintage, shabby chic and traditional furniture, accessories and homeware pieces. All items are carefully sourced and lovingly restored to make wonderful additions to your home.

Magna Carta 800 Medieval Festival on Thirsk Racecourse Saturday 13th June - 10am to 4pm (See advert on page 3 for full details)

In Celebration of the 800th Anniversary of the Signing of the Magna Carta in 1215, and baron William de Mowbray of Thirsk being a signatory, Thirsk Rotary Club presents re-enactments from the Knights of “Historia Normannis”, a society that brings history to life in exciting ways.

and barons of the realm.

There will be displays of archery, woodwork, and metalworking, to the singing and music of the court of the time.

They will be accompanied by “Birds of Prey Display” who will fly their falcons and other predators and explain their importance in medieval life.

There will be sideshows including minstrels, jugglers, dancers, storytelling, and making mud packs! Fresh from their TV shows The Crafty Beggars perform on a variety of instruments including a Hurdy Gurdy, accompanied by puppets and masked characters. Merrie Noyse and De Mowbray’s Musicke will call you to dance as well as playing music of the time. The Wakeman Mummers will perform their plays and there might other surprise performers through the day, all running alongside the main show.

Performances can take place anywhere

The Knights’ show ranges from exciting massed combat, crowd participation in training the ‘serfs’ through knights displaying their prowess in the ‘tourney’.

In the Medieval Tent Village visitors can handle armour and learn about the lives of medieval people: freemen, craftsmen, ladies of the court

in and amongst the trade and voluntary organisations’ stalls, many of whom will also offer entertainment.

Our primary school children will have their Magna Carta schoolwork on display, and the modern rides will keep their attention as well as ice-cream vans and others to make for a satisfying day out.

Calverts Carpets and Harrowells Solicitors as well as other sponsors have given generous support which helps us to be able to create a day like this.

Proceeds to Herriot Hospice Homecare, plus other charities including Thirsk Community care Association and Thirsk Clock.

The History Boys win a pair of tickets!

Voted the nation’s favourite play, Alan Bennett’s multi awardwinning The History Boys will be visiting Darlington Civic Theatre as part of a major new UK tour for 2015.

Winner of over 30 major awards including the Olivier and Tony Awards for Best New Play, The History Boys is the story of a group of bright, funny and unruly sixthformers in pursuit of sex, sport and a place at university. Their maverick English teacher is at odds with the young and shrewd supply teacher, whilst their headmaster is obsessed with results and league tables.

Staffroom rivalry and the anarchy of adolescence overflow, provoking insistent questions about history and how you teach it. Their A Levels may be over, but their true education is only just beginning. Widely hailed as on of the greatest theatrical events of the last decade, The History Boys is a hilariously funny and exceptionally moving play about the true purpose of education.

The History Boys is at Darlington Civic Theatre from Tuesday 16th to Saturday 20th June 2015. Tickets are available from the Box Office or by calling 01325 486555

To be in with a chance of winning a pair of tickets for Tuesday 16th June at 7.30pm, simply answer this question correctly and send together with your name, address and telephone number to: The History Boys, Northallerton In Focus Competition, Marketing Dept., Civic Theatre, Parkgate, Darlington DL1 1RR. Entries must be received by Friday 12th June, the winner will be contacted by phone.

Kirkby Fleetham and East Cowton C of E Primaries to federate The governing bodies of the Church of England primary schools of Kirkby Fleetham and East Cowton have taken the decision to federate from 1st September 2015 in order to strengthen the two schools and to maintain high standards of teaching and learning.

Governors of the two schools held a formal consultation on the proposal, including a number of public meetings, and have agreed the move after overwhelming backing from parents, staff and the local community.

Under this federation the schools retain their own budgets and buildings and remain part of their local community. But they have a shared leadership and management and a single governing body working in the best interests of both schools and their pupils.

Kirkby Fleetham and East Cowton have worked very closely together for some time. At the end of this term Ruth Smith, the current head of East Cowton, will be leaving to take up a role in teacher training and from September the two schools will have a shared headteacher, Helen Dudman, Kirkby Fleetham’s present head.

Staff, governors and the community agreed that federation will bring about key benefits for children at both schools in terms of educational and social experiences and more targeted teaching, and for staff in terms of professional development. It also means the schools can further develop their joint curriculum and share to make best use of their resources, which is an advantage in the current tough financial climate.

Children at the two schools already enjoy opportunities to work together. For example during the Tour de France children worked on a joint project with a local artist, and enjoyed a day cycling at Croft circuit. There are future opportunities planned and joint projects to extend their learning and their peer group .

Headteacher Helen Dudman said: “This is an exciting development for the two communities. The federation will serve to combine the strengths of both schools and will widen opportunities for pupils in terms of access to more specialist teaching and social interaction.”

“The local authority has given its full backing to this formal federation because it makes sense for the pupils of East Cowton and Kirkby Fleetham in every way,” said Pete Dwyer, North Yorkshire’s Corporate Director for the Children and Young People’s Service. “We believe this is the best solution to ensure a robust and sustainable future for these schools which give great service to their rural communities.”

Never too late Gardening is an ongoing affair and though timing is important, we often become overwhelmed by a sense of being ‘too late to plant’ by some arbitrary date. Often we bandy dates around as though they were written in stone.

My granddad insisted all potatoes and spring beans had to be sown

by Good Friday, and the gooseberry bush had to be in leaf before the runner beans were sown. But in fact each season is different and garden planting dates are more flexible than traditional wisdom would have us believe! The good news is that it’s not too late to plant a great garden, even in June and July.

While it is true that fruiting plants like tomatoes and peppers really need to be set out now, many other summer producers will grow even more quickly from seeds planted in early summer, when the soil is already well warmed. You’ll be surprised how fast seeds will come up and explode with growth: cucumbers, beans and winter squashes, pumpkins, beets, carrots, chard and scallions, are all suitable for June planting.

It’s a great time to start a crop of ‘cut and come again’ salad mix and mild mustards. You can also plant heat-and-sun-loving herbs like basil, marjoram, chives, oregano, thyme and sage. Just keep the seed beds well moistened.

And even if you were super-efficient and your early-planted beans, squash, chard, carrots and basil plants are growing well, June is a terrific time to start a second crop to have ready for a late summer harvest, when the first crops of these staples have finished up.

22

infocus

Please mention InFocus when contacting any of our advertisers

I usually start seeds every

month,

finishing

sowing

s u m m e r p ro d u c i n g vegetables in late June. In July and August, I move on to seeds for autumn crops like

spinach,

radishes,

kale, leeks, peas, broccoli, more mild mustards and some pak choi.

June is not too late for flowers either. I’ve planted marigolds, sunflowers, cosmos, zinnias and nasturtiums at this time of year.

That way when the first annuals have burned out by late summer I have a lovely smaller flush of blooms to enjoy.

If you really want to get ahead, June and July are also good times to start seeds for perennials and biennials to bloom next spring.

Sow seeds in a protected seed bed, and then transplant seedlings in the autumn to overwinter. Next spring you’ll be rewarded handsomely with garden full of glorious colour.

Enjoy your garden.

In addition to the regular watercolours, oils, prints, embroideries, photographs, war medals and sports memorabilia; other framing challenges include; ballet pumps, coins and even African arrows!”
