TAVERHAM VILLAGE HALL

Dear Editor, May we through your magazine thank our neighbours, for their kindness shown to us after the burglary at our property in the Street, Taverham, while we were away on holiday during the week Aug 7th to 14th. Also thanks to Norfolk Police and our local Community Support Officer who could not have been more helpful.

Yours Sincerely, Paddy and Ray Barker.

Dear Sir, The laudable aim to keep residents using the bottle banks at Acres Way to raise funds for Thorpe Marriott Village Hall is being thwarted by a lack of capacity. I regularly use them rather than putting bottles in my recycling bin but the reduction by the company from six to three bottle banks regularly results in overflowing and glass all over the car park. If this isn't rectified people will give up using them.

Tony Abigail, Thorpe Marriott

Reply from T M Village Hall: Thank you for supporting the Village Hall by continuing to use the bottle banks.

We have had some issues with the new company who service the banks, as all three should be marked as 'Mixed Glass' which has caused glass to be left on the floor when the clear glass bank was full. This has all been cleared and we have interim signs on the banks which confirm any glass can go into any of the three glass banks and given that there is much less glass being deposited in the bottle banks three mixed banks should be ample for our needs.

We will, however, keep this under review on an ongoing basis.

We will now check the banks more regularly to see when they need to be emptied but we are also reliant on the general public to call the number on the front of each bank if they notice they are full and require emptying. This is exactly the same as it has always been, albeit a different telephone number to ring for collection. Thank you all for your help in monitoring this.

As a Village Hall we do very much rely on local residents continuing to use the bottle banks as they provide much needed income to help the hall survive, so a big “THANK YOU” to all who deposit their glass in our bottle banks.

We'll Need a Green Belt.

Massive pressure will build to develop the green fields around Taverham and Drayton if the western section of the NDR is built (cash permitting). The NDR is the trigger for square miles of industrial and housing development North East of Norwich.

Even before this supply is exhausted, we could be next in line for the same treatment. A real possibility is a vast sprawl from Taverham to Lenwade to Felthorpe to Drayton to Hellesdon to Costessey to Queen’s Hills. This is why we should be thinking about a Green Belt to strengthen Broadland's current Countryside policies. There is enough land earmarked at present to meet local needs and a Green Belt need not be a girdle if land is needed in the future for a pressing community use. A Green Belt would send a clear message that, around here, we are happy with the existing scale of our villages and stand to preserve the surrounding countryside.

Important information about Flu Clinics at Taverham Surgery

taverham village hall news

The flu is not a severe cold. It is a completely different virus that attacks your immune system, leaving you vulnerable to other more serious illnesses. st If you will be aged 65 or over by 31 March 2016 or if you suffer from one of the following Chronic Diseases: Diabetes, Chronic Heart Condition, Respiratory Condition (including Asthma), Chronic Kidney Disease or have lowered immunity due to steroid medication that you are taking or are undergoing cancer treatment then you will be entitled to a free flu vaccination. The vaccine does not contain any live flu viruses so it is impossible to catch the flu from this vaccine.

We have now received our vaccine delivery dates and intend to run clinics on: th Saturday 3rd October and Saturday 17 October How to book your appointment: We have set up a dedicated phone line again this year to accept flu vaccination bookings. Please call the surgery on 01603 867481 and choose the option to book flu appointment from the menu. Bookings can be taken from 10:30am - 12:30 rd each day from 3 September.

For updated information regarding our flu clinics please go to our website www.taverhampartnership.co.uk

www.taverhamvillagehall.yolasite.com Anyone who has been into the Village Hall since the refurbishment cannot have been anything other than amazed. The Foyer is bright and welcoming and those who have wedged the front door open in the past can now enter the hall hands free! Elsewhere the new lighting has improved the light level beyond recognition. None of this would have been possible without the professional project management of committee member Bill Warnes. I, and the rest, of the committee cannot thank him enough for all the time, energy and expertise he volunteered. Not only did he spend the best part of a fortnight keeping an eye on things but he also spent months pulling together estimates, looking at samples and cajoling contractors so that we were able to keep disruption of our hirers to a minimum. We could not have asked for more.

I also must thank the Parish Council, Broadland D C and the Taverham Newsletter (photo – Carol Moon, Chair of Newsletter presenting cheque to Margaret Calver Chair of

Taverham Veterinary Practice, Fir Covert Rd, Taverham, Norwich, NR8 6HT Tel: 01603 867330

Wilma is a typically happy and friendly 7 year old Staffordshire bull terrier. She arrived at the surgery as a second opinion following a history of lameness and lethargy. On examination we found she had swollen joints and a fever.

Wilma was sedated and samples were taken from her joints.

Normal joints have very little fluid within them and very few cells. Wilma had increased amounts of joint fluid and lots of inflammatory cells yet no bacteria. When multiple joints are affected in this way it is typical of a condition called immune mediated polyarthritis.

There are many immune mediated diseases where the body targets part of its own system and examples include hypothyroidism, diabetes mellitus type I, haemolytic anaemia and rheumatoid arthritis. The cause for such conditions is often not known but theories include reactions to viral infection, drugs and potentially vaccination.

Wilma was treated with immunosuppressive steroid and very quickly she improved and regained her usual happy demeanour. The prognosis for this condition is generally good and hopefully we will eventually be able to stop Wilma’s treatment.

Taverham vets now have a new loyalty scheme managed by Denplan and we have had a fantastic uptake of the scheme in the first month. Please contact reception for more details of the plan. We are also delighted to announce our new hydrotherapy treadmill centre and our cat luxury boarding hotel are nearing completion ready for opening in November!

ENHANCING THORPE MARRIOTT GREEN You may have noticed that the hedge along Kingswood Avenue is deteriorating. The Parish Council is trying to enhance the environment of Thorpe Marriott Green and on a Saturday this autumn will be planting a new hedge close to the bollards. This will mean that in the future the current bollards will not need to be replaced. The new hedge will also have the advantage of encouraging wild life.

To give it the best chance of surviving, during the time that the hedge is becoming established, it would be appreciated if people would kindly use the official access points and not go through the newly planted hedge.

Taverham Allotments (TALGA)

Christmas Spirit with Rosemary Brown

I look on October as the first autumn month, although technically this season begins in the middle of September. During this month many crop plants finally stop growing and can be removed to the compost bin, in particular runner beans and courgettes. These two crops are a mainstay on many allotments and have both been in full production for the past 2 or 3 months.

Other crops however begin to take their place, in particular various brassicas such as autumn cabbages.

Also sprouts are now beginning to form the buttons that many of us look forward to in our Christmas dinner. Another Christmas favourite is parsnips. These have a long growing season, being one of the first crops to be sown, usually during February. They can start to be used now but it is often said that the flavour improves after frosty nights and so they can be left in the ground during winter. Other root crops such as carrots and beetroot need to be lifted before the first frosts. These crops can be stored and used over the winter months.

The crops that can be sown during October are garlic, winter sown onion sets and broad beans although in my experience sowing onion sets and broad beans over winter has never been that successful and I plan to leave this task until the spring. It is essential, however, to establish garlic plants in October to allow them to grow over winter. Garlic needs the cold weather and the short days to prepare it for producing bulbs during the early months of next year. The other crop that I like to sow under cold frames or cloches during October is winter hardy lettuce.

It is a good month to start clearing the plot of the remains of old crops and of weeds. I like to use the autumn to begin preparing the ground for the following spring although this is done mostly during November to January. It is important, however, to start planning for the new growing season now and to think about buying seeds. It is also important to keep good records of where on the plot particular crops were grown to allow a rotation system to be planned, which will stop the build-up of diseases.

If you are interested in having an allotment plot or ½ plot in Taverham, TALGA can be contacted by e-mail (talgasecretary@btinternet.com). Please note that applications for plots can only be accepted from people resident in the parish of Taverham.

Taverham resident Rosemary is looking to provide Christmas Lunch and entertainment for 20 local guests who are expecting to spend Christmas alone. Moved by reports in the press and on TV last Christmas she felt it was time for her to do something similar.

Clearly this is not something she can do on her own so she is looking for help.

Presently Door to Door and her son, Phil, are helping with transport and The Parish Council has provided Hinks Meadow Hall.

Rosemary is looking for donations and pledges to help with the meal, presents, a Christmas tree and decorations and more help with transport.

Please help Make a lonely person's Christmas as good as yours! If you know of someone who will be alone at Christmas please get in touch.

Contact Rosemary on 01603262936 (or the Editor and I will pass on messages)

www.roundwood-bowls.co.uk By the time this newsletter is in circulation the winter season will have started in earnest with the majority of teams having completed a couple of the matches. The County League games mostly start on 3rd October and the same month sees the start of cup glory ambitions with the Yetton, Mason, Eggham and over 60`s competitions.

Socially, the autumn quiz will be held on October 2nd at 7:00 p.m. Tickets cost £8 and include a fish and chip supper.

November 6th will see the return of Roger’s Bingo evening while December 18th is the Christmas Social which will again be a Murder Mystery evening. Social bowling evenings will be held on a Wednesday evening this season due to the newly formed Friday evening triples league – provisional dates booked are October 21st and November 18th.

Junior Coaching has yet to be confirmed for Monday or Wednesday evenings - the majority preference will win the vote! Any youngsters aged 10 upwards looking for an after school activity from 4:30 – 6:00 p.m. is asked to ring Norwich 860530 or the number below.

Senior Section celebrates their 100th year in 2016.

This is another section of Girlguiding which is celebrating its centenary next year. Senior Section is for girls aged from 14. Most of the girls have been to other sections and have moved up from Guides. Although, we have had girls go directly into the section, as they have joined friends.

As they are our older section, they govern themselves completely and decide what they wish to do each meeting. We have two Senior Section units in Taverham District, both have young and enthusiastic leaders. They meet on a Thursday 7:30– 9 pm and Friday 6:30–8 pm at Taverham Scout Hut. Both units meet fortnightly, as this suits both groups and helps with school work, exams and other commitments.

Thursday’s group is re-opening after a break and Friday’s group is small, so both have spaces if your daughter would like to join them.

There will be opportunities next year to go on adventures with the group and experience new challenges to stretch them even further. If you wish to know more about the section, go to girlguiding.org.uk which will tell you more about them and you can also register to the join this vibrant section.

For more information or questions email claireandsarahdcs@gmail.com Christine Chapman

TAVERHAM DAY CENTRE The members’ recent outing was to The Recruiting Sergeant at Coltishall. On the 29th October the centre will hold another Open Coffee Morning. Everyone is welcome. It starts at 11am and there will an auction of donated items, a cake sale and a raffle. Free coffee and cake included in the £2 admission.

It does not seem possible but we are already making plans for the Christmas season. For more information about the centre please phone 01603 865839 on Tuesday or Thursday or Brian Wells 01603 412809 at any time.

Brian Wells, Chair MODERN SEQUENCE DANCE CLUB For one week during the month of August I took a holiday abroad and left the Friday dance session, on the 14th, in the hands of Irene. Upon my return she told me the dancers had supported her with their good attendance and aided with placing the chairs and helped with interval refreshments. Irene prepared the whole dance programme alone, mastered the music system, the CDs and the dreaded microphone. In her own words she enjoyed the new responsibility, the banter from the dancers and the light-hearted support from all those present. I do find great satisfaction from learning that she enjoyed the daunting experience and thank her and, of course, the dancers for upholding our aim to always put fun first to finish with a smile. Irene exceeded that by receiving a standing ovation after the last dance. Thanks Irene you won everybody’s approval. In fact she did a great job as that afternoon the floor was in a poor state for dancing due to previous activities. Many members suffered follow-up aching limbs and shoes in a poor state of cleanliness. Although the floor was cleaned, prior to our next weekly session on 21st after one dance it was felt that, for safety reasons, we should abandon the afternoon. It was intended that, had we proceeded, we should introduce the new “Woodsdown Waltz” but no doubt by the time this is published we will be happily featuring that dance in our programme. It contains two syncopated sections and a chasse, which is unusual for a waltz, but no doubt we shall master those steps! You can always find out by joining us any Friday afternoon at The Costessey Centre, Longwater Lane, at 2:00pm.

Till then…Happy Dancing…John, 01603 411336

TAVERHAM FAYRE At the time of going to press there was very little to update you regarding the Fayre as we had yet to hold our first committee meeting on the 8th September.

MEL CLARKE

has recently returned from Donaueschingen in Germany having attended the Para World Archery Championships.

Mel won the mixed team silver medal and she also reached the semi-finals in the individual competition, making her now ranked 4th in the world. By achieving this, she has won a quota place for Archery GB in the ladies Compound category for Rio 2016.

Not too bad after a year of not shooting due to a wrist injury and consequently having surgery last March.

Mel picked up her bow again at the beginning of July and this trip was mainly to get her back ‘on task’ again.

TAVERHAM TOUCANS GIRLS’ U10’S FOOTBALL TEAM Taverham Football Club is proud to be one of the biggest clubs supporting Girls Football in Norfolk with over 70 girls enjoying participation in the "beautiful game" every week.

All girls in school years 3, 4 and 5 are welcome to join our friendly training sessions. New teams are also being formed for the U10s League beginning in October. A big thank you to local driving instructor Dave Pickford who sponsors our Girls U10s team every season.

Taverham Girls U13s also need some more team mates this season - school years 7 and 8.

Please contact Mark on Mob/text 07788 986 872 or Home 01603 260842 Mark Sexton

NEW TAVERHAM PLAYERS A new season and a new show to rehearse and what challenges will that bring? Getting used to the Village Hall’s new lighting could be the first of those challenges. I got a sneak preview of the Old Hall’s nice pristine illumine that is being installed as we speak and I have to say it’s a good job we kept a couple of boxes of sunglasses from the old rock & roll show! Only joking, Village Hall, I’m sure the hirers will love them along with the new improvements to the Foyer.

“JACK AND THE BEANSTALK” under the direction of Rob Arthurton, is looming large on the NTP horizon and it is time that you really ought to be considering booking tickets for this one as I reckon they will be in short supply well before the last week of November. Our BOX OFFICE is open from the 1st October and for those who have booked with Julie & Chris Peach before there are a few minor changes to last year that you might want to take note of, see ad elsewhere.

John Pennells, NTP

TAVERHAM BLUEBIRDS UNDER 13 GIRLS’ TEAM are looking for more players. Great bunch of girls moving up to 9v9. Several players registered and ready to play.

LITTLE NIGHTINGALES We have welcomed lots of new children to Nursery this term and know they will have lots of fun being with us for this next year.

We said goodbye to two of our members of staff before we broke up for the holidays, Mrs Spencer and Mrs Wilson who unfortunately both moved out of the area. We wish them well for the future.

They will be missed. However we have welcomed both Mrs Fitt and Mrs Steward who have already settled in well.

The children are learning lots of new skills already and are making use of the many new pieces of equipment we have recently purchased.

Our theme for this first half term is ‘All about me’ and the many activities we have planned are keeping the children busy and excited at the same time.

Please remember to visit our school website and take the link to Little Nightingales to see what we have been up to. There are lots of photos and BLOGS for you to catch up on. At the same time why not look at what is going on at Nightingale School as the Nursery is very lucky in being able to share the facilities there are on offer at the school. www.nightingle.norfolk.sch.uk Brenda Clarke

Both GCSE and A Level results days were a cause for great celebration at Taverham High School. Our Year 13 students were the first group to be taught at the independent Taverham Sixth Form. As a pioneering cohort they have been exceptional - their involvement in school life has enriched our community and they have shown themselves as role models for the whole school. It is thanks to their initiative that we had our first very successful RAG week in February with nearly £4000 sent to charity.

Sixth Formers have helped younger students as mentors and have been fully involved in the music and sport of the school. The Sixth Form prides itself on recognising students as individuals, and giving the support, challenge and guidance they need to progress to the next stage of their lives whether it is employment, training or higher education. Nearly 70% of A level results were at A* - C (including over 30% at A* - B grade) and this means that all our students, who have chosen to go to university, have secured a place a number at leading including Russell Group Universities. Others have gained places in training, employment and apprenticeship programmes. Many students have committed themselves to returning to school to discuss their choices with younger members of the school.

At GCSE the trend of improvement continues 62% of students secured the crucial 5A*- C grades, including English and Maths. There were some exceptional performances - 33 students achieved 6 or more A* and A grades and nearly all students are now qualified to move onto the next planned stage of their education whether it be here at THS in the Sixth Form or other colleges of training. On results day both staff and students gathered in anticipation. As ever, the day was full of many smiles, much laughter and a few tears of relief!

Taverham WI

TUESDAY FRIENDSHIP CLUB

www.taverham-wi.co.uk

At our first meeting in August we welcomed a possible new member to the club.

We had a two musicians and a singer who were called "Penny for a Song" on the 11th August, the lady singer was called Penny. They played us a medley of tunes and songs from films, we had to guess which film the tune came from and who wrote it. It was a very amusing afternoon.

19th August saw us go on a day's outing to Great Yarmouth.

The weather was kind to us and members enjoyed the day.

We have a variety of outings planned for the rest of the year.

We welcome non-members to join us, if anyone is interested in joining us on any outings please ring the numbers below to find out more.

On the 25th August we visited our favourite Butcher Paul Graves who has a shop and farm in the village of Briston.

We looked around the farm and saw the beautiful cattle he has there. They have a heifer that they are entering the Aylsham show her name is Princess, beautiful girl, we wish them good luck. Tea and sandwiches were served in the church centre just across the road. Superb day out!

We meet in Taverham Village Hall twice a month for details please ring Carole on 868239 or Carol on 261743. We have a very friendly club new people always welcome.

Carol Frost

As I write this in late August the weather is hardly fit to be called summer and some days have been so grey that would be more befitting to November. It brings home the reality that time passes so quickly that if the sun is not shining we should make the most of our time and make our own sunshine.

This is certainly what we had to do at the two garden parties held at Gressenhall to celebrate 100 years of the WI. Although the rain fell and we squelched around in our sandals and shivered in our summer dresses in true WI style we chatted and laughed with friends from other groups.

Entertained by a wonderful guitarist and the Norfolk Belles Choir we certainly made the best of the occasions.

Our members evening in August was a quiz with a difference, each team had a list of questions and a copy of a newspaper which contained the answers within the numerous articles - although greeted with a little scepticism at the start it all ended well with most questions being answered with much hilarity and with some of us being more knowledgeable of areas of news we would not normally read.

September is the end of our financial year when we prepare our annual reports to present to the meeting in November.

This is another marker of time passing but also of another successful year of friendship within Taverham WI. Our programme for the next two months: th October 9 Ernie Richards (The Norfolk & Norwich Operatic Society) th November 13 Annual Meeting We meet on the second Friday evening of every month at 7.30pm till approx. 9.30pm in Taverham Village Hall.

Gina Clapson, taverhamwi@yahoo.co.uk

TAVERHAM YOUTH CENTRE Taverham Youth centre (behind the Village Hall) does not open during the school holidays so we have no news to report.

Although due to technical difficulties last month we were not able to share our photos of the end of term party with the St Trinians theme.

We would like to remind you of our age range for the junior club which is school years 5 to 8.

This is to give our years 5 and 6 residents an opportunity to meet and mix with years 7 and 8, giving them a wider friendship/support network prior to moving up to high school; hopefully easing their transition.

Please be aware that we rely on volunteers to be able to open this valuable local project so if you could spare a couple of hours on a weekly, monthly or termly basis we would welcome you to join our friendly team. You would be fully supported, gain a DBS check and access to low cost and free training. If you would like to get involved or any other details about our projects please contact Kerry at kjyouthwork@hotmail.co.uk or call/text on 07887 950002

CHARITY HAIR CUT My daughter Lily had 8 inches cut off her hair in aid of Little Princess Trust; she is donating the hair which was cut off to the charity which makes wigs for children who have suffered hair loss due to illness. It costs £300 to make each wig. Lily has also raised £240 in sponsor money for having her hair cut off. Lily is a young girl who was afraid even to have a hair trim but, after seeing videos of little girls who had lost their hair on You Tube, she thought she would do such a kind thing and donate her hair.

We are all so very proud of Lily.

Her 4 year old sister, Elise, has also donated her pocket money to Lily’s cause.

Lily hopes to raise £300 for a wig. If you would like to help please send your donation to the Editor marked Little Princess Trust.

District Councillor’s Report Taverham South By the time you read this article the summer will be behind us, and the children will be back at school.

Northern Distributor Road (NDR) At last we have a start date for the NDR. It is the last week in October 2015. Hopefully more details will be available next month.

Recycling Electrical and Electronic Items Broadland District Council is leading a pilot scheme to collect electrical and electronic items from the kerbside for reuse and recycling.

The scheme started in Aylsham on the 11th August. Reepham on the 23rd September and Acle, Reedham and District 28th October.

Collections in some areas will take place after Christmas, but these are yet to be agreed. I have spoken to the recycling team, and pressed for Taverham to be included in the scheme.

Waste Recycling

The St Edmund’s Church Community Café, Hinks Meadow Hall, Kingswood Avenue, Taverham is open from 10:30 until 3:30 every Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. It is an ideal local meeting place for morning coffee, light lunches (plus an all day breakfast) and afternoon teas with homemade cakes.

On the first Thursday in each month we meet for Cards and Chat at 1:30 and recently we have been making cards with decoupage and buttons and bows. From October we will be working on cards for Christmas. Materials will be supplied for each project for a minimal fee.

The Craft Club meets on the third Thursday of each month and tackles some interesting and beautiful projects. Full instruction is given and projects are suitable for both beginners and more experienced crafters. Again materials are supplied for a small cost. Why not come along and give either cards or craft (or both!) a try? You will be assured of a warm welcome and, tea and biscuits!

The contact for Cards and Chat: Janet Colbert: 261204 For Craft: Sue Russell: 789141 or 07508 824038, Ruth Benbrook: 07767607198

Great News” Broadland residents are recycling an extra 265 tonnes per month- an increase of 40% Please put your clean recycling loose in the bin (not in carrier bags). Well done!

Dog Fouling Dog fouling has got very bad this last two months. I have walked several roads in the area. Sandy Lane was terrible. Dog faeces were on the paths and on the grass banks.

The children will be back at school in September and they would not like to have that on their feet at school. It is very serious as their eyes could be affected.

Marriott’s Way 10k Race The Marriott’s Way 10k race will take place from Aylsham to Reepham on the 11th October. There is still time to enter. Last date to enter is 4th October 2015. Please contact Marie Hudson on 01603 430570.

If you have any queries please contact me on 01603 861243.

VIEW FROM THE DENTIST’S CHAIR This is the first of a series of articles I hope will help your understanding and the care of you and your family’s dental well-being.

Dental decay: Did you know that 2 in 3 children aged 12 are now free of visible dental decay? In 1973, this was 1 in 10. That’s progress but still a way to go.

31% of adults have tooth decay.

So what causes decay? Acids produced by bacteria on the surface of teeth cause softening or demineralisation. The first sign may be a ‘white spot’ on a tooth and cavities are produced by prolonged demineralisation. Once a cavity has formed a filling is required to repair the damage.

What can you do to prevent decay? * Daily brushing and flossing or using interdental brushes to remove thoroughly the bacteria in dental plaque. The use of a disclosing tablet or solution can help you see plaque. * A toothpaste with an appropriate level of fluoride used twice a day, especially last thing at night * Use a good quality electric toothbrush or, a soft or medium manual toothbrush * Reduce your sugar intake, especially in snacks between meals * Talk to your dentist if you suffer with a dry mouth.

Extra strength fluoride toothpastes can be prescribed if necessary * Have regular check-ups with your dentist.

What does fluoride do to help? Used regularly in your tooth paste fluoride will reduce demineralisation and can promote the repair of early tooth decay (at the ‘white spot’ stage mentioned above). It builds up in the tooth surface and is released to combat when acids attack.

Do mouth rinses help? There are now many types of mouth rinse available for different situations and it’s always a good idea to ask your dentist if you’re thinking of using one to make sure it’s right for you.

Fluoride mouth rinses provide extra fluoride but do not replace the need to brush and floss your teeth daily. They are often advised for children with braces when brushing can be more difficult but are not recommended for children under 6 years of age.

Taverham Band Autumn Concert

TAVERHAM BAND www.taverhamband.org

Musical Director: Ian Colman, 01603 868680 ian.Colman@taverhamband.org Supported by: NatWest, IC Travel, Hi Span/H Young Group, 3-Line Electrical & Ichthyos Ltd

Taverham Village Hall - October 16th & 17th Tickets now on sale from www.taverhamband.org, 01603 868680, Drayton Post Office, The Sweetbucket at Taverham Nursery and Abbotts Estate Agents, Victoria Road Prices: Adults £7 and Child £3 Doors Open 7.00pm

The band continued its autumn programme with a return visit to the Carnegie Rooms in Thetford for a lively and well attended concert in aid of the RAF Association, including ever-popular “Last Night of the Proms” favourites giving the audience the chance to indulge in some vigorous flagwaving and singing.

A strong contingent from the band attended the annual Brass Training Day at the Hewett School, Norwich. Each year the East Anglian Brass Bands Association invites members from a leading National band, and this year we were fortunate to benefit from the experience and expertise of some of the very best: members of both the Brighouse and Rastrick and Foden's Bands. The day is open to all local bands and offers the opportunity to learn at first hand from top professional players. It is an annual event which the band has always been keen to support and this year was no exception.

Our next concerts at Taverham Village Hall will be held on Friday and Saturday 16th & 17th October when we shall be playing a fantastic range of music including a tribute to Elvis who would be celebrating his 80th birthday this year and also to two iconic figures lost to the world of music in 2015, namely James Last and the film composer James Horner. Horner who’s music has featured in the biggest screen blockbusters including ‘Avatar’ and ‘Titanic’ was tragically killed in a plane accident in June, just weeks after conducting his Titanic score at the Royal Albert Hall with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.

Additionally we shall be performing a concert at St Edmund’s Church, Taverham on Wednesday 11th November as a special Armistice Concert to raise funds for ‘Help for Heroes’. Included in the concert will music associated with both World Wars and also a special collection of First World War songs, published free of charge for Bands, with the challenge across the world for as many bands as possible to perform this piece on 11th November.

Tickets will be on sale from the usual outlets from October at the usual prices.

Ian Colman - Musical Director 01603 868680

Weston Longville Village Cinema The October film is Amy (15 rated), the story of the life of Amy Winehouse, the outstanding pop star described as “a once in two generations musical talent”. Whilst her musical talents made her a star her chaotic personal life made all the headlines. The film is the story of a tragic but highly talented life and is a powerful and emotionally resonant tribute to her talent and to her great unrealised potential.

It will be shown on Saturday 17 October at Weston Longville's Hall for All. Doors open at 7:00 for a 7:30 start. As always the entry fee of £5 gets you in to see this interesting film and sample the pleasures of a luxury ice cream at the interval. All welcome. Proceeds to the Village Hall.

Childerwood Nursery It has been an exciting and wonderful start to the new Pre-school Term. Our new children are already settling in, enjoying Nursery life and making new friendships.

We have an exceptional outdoor area and our children have already been out exploring, playing and learning with the wide range of activities on offer. Children have recently been enjoying; the bug hotel which has had many visits from our friendly local mini beasts, this is always a fun and exciting area and playing in our new fantastic summer house, toy village and more.

We have enjoyed doing lots of summer craft, which has filled our artwork books to the brim and now starting some fun autumn craft and thinking about the changes in season colours and of course the weather.

We do have a few places left for this term, but we are always happy to book families in ready for a placement in readiness for when they want to start their nursery journey with us.

If you would like to find out more about what we do at Childerwood please visit our friendly website http://www.childerwood.co.uk/ which also has a link to our Facebook page too.

THE NORWICH ELECTRONIC ORGAN & KEYBOARD CLUB

VALE PROBUS CLUB A NEW PROBUS YEAR September 3rd 2015

We meet on the last Tuesday of the month at Drayton Village Hall, with entertainment by top professional organists from around the country. The evening starts at 7:30pm, there is an interval with refreshments and a raffle, and it finishes at 10pm.

There is no extra membership fee; entrance is £6 at the door.

Tuesday 25th August - Chris Jones arrived from Orpington in his motor home and unloaded his Yamaha US1 organ midi-ed with a Technics KN7000 keyboard, effectively creating a 3 - manual organ.

Also included in his set-up was a Roland sound module and several Yamaha add-ons, all combining to deliver his own brand of musical entertainment.

Starting with a jaunty medley of Good Morning, Happy Feet, The Shoemaker and the Muppet Show, Chris demonstrated how he can get the best out of these instruments. We had such diverse offerings as Sleepy Shores with lovely piano and strings, The Poirot theme with a beautiful haunting saxophone, Mahler's 5th Symphony, Sheep May Safely Graze, music by the Shadows, Abba, Ivor Novello, sambas, Carousel and My Fair Lady medleys and a lovely collection of Ray Conniff tunes including an effective use of the 'do wah' singers in It Don't Mean a Thing if it Ain't Got That Swing.

The very wet weather and cool temperatures on the day had resulted in a smaller than usual audience but Chris wasn’t deterred by this and a most pleasant evening was had by all who had managed to get there.

October 27th - Elizabeth Harrison This multi-talented lady came to play for our club a couple of years ago when her five and a half hour journey from Lancashire resulted in a concert of lively, bright and cheerful music and was much appreciated by the audience, we anticipate her next visit should be just as enjoyable.

Do come and join us for an evening of good musical entertainment with like-minded friendly people, you will be very welcome.

Martin Drake, Chairman, 01603 745544

The sad death of Tony Goodchild was in all our minds as we met for our Annual General meeting, and we warmly remembered him in silence before sitting down. Tony had made a huge contribution as a committee member as well as serving as President. Outgoing President Terry Riches, in starting his summary of the year, recalled his own personal friendship with Tony as well as paying tribute to Past-President Derek Snelling who we also sadly lost during the year.

Otherwise, the picture of the past year that emerged from Terry’s and the other officers reports was encouraging. We have enjoyed many memorable speakers. Income exceeded expenditure by the right amount and the subscription is not rising! Membership remains stable, thanks to any losses being balanced by the arrival of new members, and apparently other Norwich Probus clubs envy our (relatively) young membership. And from this year, we can all look forward to free membership once we attain 90 years of age - the Club rules were amended to this effect.

Terry’s final duty (after, of course, thanking all his officers) was to install and welcome Paul Anderson as the new President. The Committee was readily given a vote of confidence to continue and Past-president Roger Hinton was voted in as this year’s Vice-president. One of his roles is to compile a programme of speakers for 2016-7 and I’m sure he will be glad to consider any relevant suggestions and offers!

Meanwhile, we’re all looking forward to Paul unfolding his programme, and wish him all the best for the forthcoming year.

DRAYTON HORTICULTURAL ASSOCIATION

Drayton & District Country Market at Taverham Village Hall

Your Local Gardening Club

We are very grateful to the library staff for allowing us to set up shop in the library for the two weeks that we were unable to use the Village Hall. In fact, both mornings were very successful and hopefully we have encouraged some new people to come to the Market now we are back in our proper home.

An early reminder that we have our Christmas market on Saturday 21st November in the Old Hall, there will be more details next month.

In the meantime we are in the Old Hall at Taverham Village Hall every Friday morning between 8:45am and 11am. For those who haven’t yet visited us we sell a good selection of cakes, pies and savoury items as well as eggs, some fresh produce and craft items.

We also serve refreshments at a very reasonable. Do call in and have a look at what we offer.

Any enquiries please phone Christine Marling (Secretary) 01603865446

We had a well-timed speaker in August when Pauline Harper gave members lots of tips and advice on how to get the best from our exhibits in readiness for our Autumn Show to take place on the 5th September. Pauline is an avid exhibitor at many local and national shows, and is also a qualified judge. Members found her demonstration with slides most helpful.

On the 6th October our guest will be Richard Shepherd whose specialised subject is "Lawns". This will be the first time he has visited us and we are sure he will show us how to achieve the best of our lawns, regardless of size; visitors are always welcome 7:30p.m. Drayton Village Hall, Pond Lane.

DRAYTON FLOWER CLUB An enormous thank you to everyone who supported the President's coffee morning in aid of the East Coast Truckers. We will be able to send the Truckers a cheque for over £350 to help their admirable work with children. The Truckers themselves turned out in force at the coffee morning and certainly added some hilarity to the proceedings - a great bunch of people.

Members have been busy throughout August, arranging flowers in the Cathedral, several weddings and this month flowers in St Margaret's Church, Drayton. We have experienced some nail biting moments recently with the flower wholesaler's lorry being stuck in the Chunnel at Calais on several occasions.

Please remember the Jumble Sale in Drayton Village Hall at 2pm on Saturday, October 3rd.

Donations gratefully received at the Hall from 12 noon. Proceeds to Club funds so that the annual subscription can remain at £20.

October's demonstration is entitled 'Oriental Nights'. Sounds very intriguing.

Visitors are always made most welcome.

Details of Club activities from Pam Bailey 867730.

@ Weston Longville Village Hall on Saturday 14th November. 7:00pm for 7:30 start with fish & chip supper.

No bar so bring your own alcoholic drinks.

Tea & coffee plus soft drinks will be available Tickets £7∙50 contact Roger on 869222 For all up to date information visit our website www.taverhamlions.weebly.com The Quiz & Chips night is kindly sponsored by
