Thank god for the strength that has been bestowed upon me, without which this thesis might not have been possible indeed. A depth of gratitude to A/P Brenda Yeoh and A/P Peggy Teo, without whose guidance and supervision, I might not have been able to persevere with this endeavour. Thank you for your limitless patience and constant support throughout the two years. To A/P Brenda Yeoh especially: thanks for encouraging me to do this and also for going along with my “conference-going” frenzy! It made doing my Masters all that more exciting. A special shout-out to A. Jeyathurai, Simon Goh and all the others at the Singapore History Consultants and Changi Museum who introduced me to the amazing, amazing realm of Singapore’s history and the wonderful, wonderful world of historical research. Your support and friendship through these years have made me realize just how critical all of you have been in shaping my interests and moulding my desires in life. I have learnt a lot which would definitely hold me in good stead all my life.

Thank you for the help you gave during the inspection and for the time you made available to discuss the actions which have been taken since the academy’s previous monitoring inspection. The inspection was the fifth monitoring inspection since the academy became subject to special measures following the inspection which took place in December 2013. The full list of the areas for improvement which were identified during that inspection is set out in the annex to this letter. The monitoring inspection report is attached. Having considered all the evidence I am of the opinion that at this time: The academy is not taking effective action towards the removal of special measures. The academy may appoint newly qualified teachers in subjects other than science. This letter and monitoring inspection report will be published on the Ofsted website. I am copying this letter and the monitoring inspection report to the Secretary of State for Education, the Chair of the Governing Body and the Director of Children’s Services for West Sussex.

    CHAPTER 4 R.A.N. SHIPS OVERSEAS TO JUNE 194 0 URING the first ten months of the war, those Australian ships not D retained on the home station were employed in Imperial dispositions in widely separated areas . The first six months found Perth in Central American waters, mainly engaged in the dual task of protecting trade — especially the important tanker traffic in the Caribbean—and preventin g the escape of German merchant ships sheltering in neutral ports of th e islands and the Isthmus . Last of the three expansion-program cruiser s acquired from Britain, she had commissioned at Portsmouth on the 29th June 1939 as H .M.A. Ship under "Fighting Freddie " Farncomb, a studious , coolly-efficient officer whose nickname, bestowed during the war, reflected the confidence and esteem of the lower deck . Perth sailed from Portsmouth on the 26th July for Australia via th e Panama Canal, and reached New York, where she represented Australi a at the World Fair, on the 4th August. On the 21st of the month, after twelve days of American hospitality, she arrived at Kingston, Jamaica, an d was to have sailed for Panama on the 23rd, but in the early morning o f that date Farncomb received a signal sent to the Admiralty by the Com- mander-in-Chief, America and West Indies—Vice-Admiral Meyrick' — asking that Perth might remain on the station . Farncomb thereupon can- celled his sailing arrangements, thus anticipating an Admiralty signa l received later in the day directing him to "return Kingston and awai t further orders " .

  • Extract from the War Diary of the 12Th Lancers (Crown Copyright: National Archives)
    Extract from the war diary of the 12th Lancers (Crown Copyright: National Archives) The transcription below appears as an appendix in the 12th Lancers’ war diary in August 1914. The appendix isn’t dated nor is there any indication of who wrote it. The appendix describes the Regiment’s successful attack on German cavalry near the village of Moy de L’Aisne, France on 28 August 1914. At 3.a.m., on the morning of the 28th August, 1914, the 12th Royal Lancers was hurriedly turned out from its bivouac at Bernot, and rendezvoused on some high ground to the S.W. of St. Quentin with the rest of the 5th Cavalry Brigade, where it halted for about half an hour, allowing time to draw its rations which had been hurriedly sent up in lorries by the zealous officer in charge. Moving off again towards St.Quentin, it halted under cover, and two officers patrols were despatched to Neuville and Mesnil St Laurent. These patrols, on their return, reported that there was no sign of the enemy, and that they had been unable to obtain any news of them from the inhabitants. About 10.30 a.m., orders were received from Brigade Headquarters that the Regiment was to go into Brigade Reserve for the day at Moy on the Oise. This was welcome news, as it was an exceedingly hot day, and men and horses would all be better for a good rest. The Regiment arrived at Moy about noon, where, after watering, the horses were off-saddled and fed in the chateau grounds of the village.

The Year 6s will make their inaugural visit to PGL Liddington and the Year 7s will head to Dorset for their Geography fieldwork trip. With the Year 5s not long returned from their stay in the New Forest, there is every cause to reflect on how lucky the children are – and how lucky we are that they grasp every opportunity with both hands. In assembly this week, we looked at an average life counted out in jelly beans; we then looked at just one jelly bean and contemplated what we would do with it. The answers were varied; most said they Read and see more on page 2. would spend time with their friends and family, some wanted to read a favourite book, one boy even had dastardly plans to be rebellious. Congratulations The point of the assembly was, whether what looms is bad or good, embrace it, because when the day is done, you can’t get it back. However, while we need to live each day to its fullest in the here and now, we can plan for the future.

  • THE GEORGE BYGONE – November2018: Another George Cavalryman (1914-18)
    THE GEORGE BYGONE – November2018: Another George Cavalryman (1914-18) This month’s Bygone, unsurprisingly, looks at The George’s connection to the First World War, on the hundredth anniversary of its end. Albert James Hall, born at Easton on 19th Mar 1893, was the second son of Charles Hall, landlord of The George from about 1908 until 1924. Albert, who would already have been a member of the volunteer cavalry regiment, was called up to the 1/1st Battalion of the Essex Yeomanry on the12th of November 1914. He was sent to France as a member of C Squadron, the regiment travelling from Melton, where they had been encamped, via Woodbridge and Southampton to Le Havre arriving on the 1st December. The Yeomanry took a major part in what became known as the Battle for Frezenberg Ridge, part of the 2nd battle of Ypres, on May 13th 1915.The following, subsequently, appeared in the Essex Newsman on the 29th of May: “ ESSEX YEOMANRY ... STORIES OF SPLENDID GALLANTRY. In the last " Essex Newsman” we reported the heroic charge upon and capture of German trenches near Ypres by the Essex Yeomanry, in conjunction with the Horse Guards Blue, the Life Guards, and the 10th Hussars, on May 13. Unfortunately the casualty list was exceedingly heavy —the enemy shelling the Yeomanry in the captured trenches with great accuracy—but the deed was a noble one, will live in history, and is described by Brigadier-General B. Johnson as “the finest thing he has ever seen." The casualties the Essex Yeomanry numbered 163, out of 307 engaged.” The article also included a number of participants’ accounts including: Of the engagement itself, following three weeks of heavy fighting the Essex Yeomanry was moved into a support position at the strategically important Frezenberg Ridge.
