  • 1895 a Landmark in Cricket History
    Thursday 28 February, page 4: CRICKET The annual meeting of the Nottinghamshire County Cricket Club was held at the George Hotel, Nottingham, yesterday, when Mr W E Denison presided over a very large number of members. In the report and accounts there was small measure for gratification. Insignificant “gates” were the rule all through last summer, and the only three-figure sum taken at any one match was £253 in the case of Notts v Surrey. There was a loss on the year’s working and the sum due to the bankers had risen from £4,628 to £4,845. This year’s programme was announced, the matches being with Sussex, Surrey, Kent, Middlesex, Gloucestershire, Yorkshire, Lancashire and Derbyshire, the last-mentioned taking the place of Somerset. Flowers will receive as a benefit the proceeds of Lancashire v Notts. The report and accounts were adopted. Lord Henry Cavendish Bentinck was elected president for the year, with the Mayor of Nottingham as vice-president, while Mr W E Denison, Captain Tomasson and Mr J A Dixon were elected on to the committee. It was stated that every effort would be used to increase the membership of the club; while Mr Denison, in addressing the meeting, said that he thought the popularity of other sports had something to do with the decrease in attendances; it was not wholly the fault of the slow cricket with which Nottingham had been charged. 1 Friday 12 April, page 8: THE COMING CRICKET SEASON Two important changes will make the season of 1895 a landmark in cricket history.

  • Dates & Events Head Lines…
    Dates & Head lines…. Newsletter May 2017 Dear Parents, Events I want to take this opportunity to let you know about changes that will be taking place to the school’s timetable for the next school year from September 2017. Last March I wrote Term ends to you to introduce our new school vision and what we are trying to accomplish for our Friday 26 May young people. At the heart of their educational experience in school is the curriculum that Term 6 starts we offer and how this curriculum is taught through the school’s timetable. In recent years Monday 5 June the school has responded to the national reforms to the curriculum at GCSE. As a consequence I have seen how our current timetable structure has not helped an Year 7 Information Evening increasing number of students achieve their first choice combination of subjects that they Monday 12 June would like to study in Years 10 and 11. The 50 minute lesson length has been crucial here. Subjects needing a longer lesson length of 100 minutes, a double period, have had Year 11 Final Assembly to be grouped together on the timetable and this has limited access to a range of these Thursday 15 June subjects for some students. To resolve this issue we are moving to a timetable structure, used by the majority of Open Morning schools including most neighbouring schools. The lesson length is extended to one hour Wednesday & Thursday and five periods are taught in the day, rather than our current six periods. All subjects in 21 & 22 June 9am to 11am Years 7 to 11 teach within one hour lessons.

  • Up There Cazaly! a Historical Look at Tonbridge Angels Through the Eyes of Their Supporters Part 1: the Beginning, Season 1948-49 As Written by Brian Cheal
    Up There Cazaly! A historical look at Tonbridge Angels through the eyes of their supporters Part 1: The Beginning, season 1948-49 as written by Brian Cheal In the very beginning ... Tonbridge soccer fans crowded into the Medway Hall on Friday to roar an enthusiastic “Yes” when Mr Gerald Williams, MP, asked if the town really wanted a senior football team, as written by the Tonbridge Free Press. Hundreds of fans decided on the spot to form a supporters’ club for the new semi-professional Tonbridge Football Club, which will play on the Angel Ground next year. They will base their activities on those of Colchester United supporters. Mr Williams, chairman of the meeting, called to receive the report of the formation of Tonbridge Football Club and to confirm the establishment of a supporters’ club, praised the great project which would bring enjoyment to thousands of fans in Tonbridge and beyond. Mr Williams stressed the value of the town’s sporting endeavours, where men and women could meet in the love of the game. There was no doubt, he said, that senior football would bring a great fellowship to Tonbridge, as well as increasing trade. After he received his great “Yes” from the meeting, Mr Williams emphasised that Tonbridge not only wanted senior football, but the town wanted to do the job properly. A good club needed proper showers and hot water, turnstiles to let in the spectators and full support from the people of the town. “I believe we want senior football in Tonbridge”, said Mr Williams. “Let us have it and make a success of it.” Mr H.
