The House Singing Competition, MacLeod 9 held for the second time at the Sage Concert Pimlico House 11 Hall, was a magical evening. An O.D. becomes the new Headmaster. An UR pupil scores his first century on the Playground. A young soprano with a golden voice sings her fist solo Speech Day at the Rememberance Service. And so on, and Speech Day Prizes 12 so on. Headmaster’s Report 14 Every single day of the year can be a treasured memory for some individual, whether it be gaining an A* in an exam, a word of praise from a teacher, or even finishing a cross country run. Chaplaincy News 19 One young man was in atrocious pain with a Music 21 badly injured foot. He came last in the Dunelm Run but he was cheered to the rooftops by every single member of his House when he managed Drama 25 to limp unaided over the finishing line. Geography Field studies Simply old fashioned? Simply Tom Brown's Schooldays? No. Simply marvellous. Warkworth 30 31 As was the perception of a year 7 pupil when Arran writing about Charles Dickens.....

  • CANOA Enciclopedia Dello Sport Di Ferruccio Calegari
    CANOA Enciclopedia dello Sport di Ferruccio Calegari Specialità CANOA IN LINEA (SU ACQUA PIATTA): La maggior parte delle federazioni nazionali, pur occupandosi di altri settori, riserva l'attività prevalente alle competizioni su acqua ferma (o piatta). Il programma olimpico prevede competizioni sui 500 o 1000 m. Ai Mondiali, a partire dal 1994, si disputano anche gare di sprint sui 200 m. Al di fuori dei campionati sono previste inoltre competizioni su percorsi più lunghi. Nel marzo 2003 all'Idroscalo di Milano ha avuto una buona partecipazione la European canoe association challenge, disputata sui 10.000 m: organizzata dall'Idroscalo Club, si è ispirata alle vecchie gare di fondo (con giro di boa) che sino al 1956 facevano parte del programma delle Olimpiadi e sino al 1993 dei Mondiali. Gare di fondo, con giro di boa, sui 5000 m sono peraltro ancora regolamentate dall'ICF. Le donne gareggiano soltanto in kayak, anche se in passato nelle competizioni fluviali, di chiara derivazione dall'attività turistica, in C2 erano possibili formazioni miste, un uomo e una donna. La promozione delle competizioni femminili in canadese è sostenuta da alcuni anni da club del Canada. Allo scopo di eliminare lo 'strapotere' dei paesi più ricchi di club e di atleti si è stabilito che ai Mondiali su acqua ferma ogni nazione partecipi con un solo equipaggio per specialità. I Campionati, che nel 2003 si sono svolti a Gainesville (USA), nel 2005 avranno luogo a Zagabria (Croazia), nel 2006 a Szeged (Ungheria), nel 2007 a Duisburg (Germania). Il diritto di partecipare alle Olimpiadi è determinato dai risultati conseguiti ai Mondiali dell'anno precedente, oltre che da una 'gara di recupero' a livello continentale.
