Tam Kernewek Tam Toronto, Canada Trelawney Choir “ Aof Bit Cornish” Tam Kernewek “ A bit of Cornish” Kevrol (Volume) 33 Dyllans (Issue) 4 Gwav (Winter) 2015 Trelawney Choir Toronto, Canada Cornish American Heritage Society Cornish American Heritage 61 Messach an Lewydh (Message from President) Winter, 2015, Greetings. This message no doubt will find you thinking of, perhaps deep into, the month’s holidays. Though most of us are thoroughly Americanized with our family practices, we would hope for room and time to strengthen tradi- tion by “doing Cornish”. I would refer you once again to that wonderful website, www.cornishculture.co.uk. There you can access information about Cornish carols, decorations and other traditions which tie us to our an- cestors. My challenge would be for us, as a service to our families, to emphasize at least one purely Cornish story, play, hymn (Charles Wesley or Thomas Merritt), food, or other practice. Keep and pass on our heritage! The excitement is building for the DVD of “TIN – THE MOVIE”, now available at http://www.tinmovie.com/. Originally produced by Miracle Theatre, established in 1979 as a touring company in Cornwall, “Tin” is a ‘rollicking good scandal…’ according to myCornwall magazine’s April/May 2015 issue. It stars several famil- iar faces…Jenny Agutter and Ben Luxon, to name two…and is the story of the politics of tin production and speculation in Cornwall during the turn of the last century. Selling for GBP16 on its website (be sure to choose the version which is playable for your region of the world), a copy is well within the reach of each of us or our local Cornish societies. It might make an excellent program for our St. Piran’s Day celebrations. Wouldn’t it be lovely to think of all of us in our corners of the planet watching this film together? Let me know if you decide to do so.

We see ourselves as part of a story of the grace of God, made manifest in Cornwall, which stretches back many hundreds of years, possibly to the very earliest days of the ChrisNan faith. It’s a story that calls us on into the future too, in loving mission, ministry and service. As we follow ‘The Saints Way’ we will be deeply commi+ed to Christ and to all that he calls us to be and to do; and to Cornwall, this very special place with its own parNcular culture, history and idenNty. We can only follow that Way faithfully if we see it as our corporate calling, as the body of Christ. So we encourage ministers of the gospel to come and join us here who are commi+ed to seng the whole people of God free in their God-given calling, to make Christ known here in Cornwall, today.

Packet 1 Toss-ups: 1. The earliest evidence of a ‘fast’ variant of this technology in Mesopotamia comes from the Early Uruk Period, but the earliest Egyptian depiction of the further development of its ‘kick’ variant comes as late as the reign of Darius. Toys using another variant of this technology were discovered in pre-Columbian archaeological levels at Vera Cruz, but the lack of suitable animals in the New World likely limited its practical development in the Americas. The Standard of Ur shows onagers attached to objects with solid versions of this technology, several hundred years prior to the Anatolian invention of spokes. For 10 points, name this technology, which was first used to enable pottery to be spun, and in the development of chariots and carts. ANSWER: the wheel [accept potter’s wheel] <OSC> 2. A character in this play is accused of ‘Wipin’ the neighborhood with my name like a dirty rag!’ This play begins with a speech explaining how people from a certain cultural background are learning to ‘settle for half’ by trusting the law. A lawyer in this play introduces the community of Red Hook as ‘the gullet of New York’. This play’s protagonist pretends to be surprised after betraying several other characters to immigration officials in Act 2 due to his obsession with the orphan Catherine.

  • Cornish Times - “School Report”
    T R eflection The R eflection achieving more together January/FebruaryMay 2019 2020 www.liskeard.cornwall.sch.uk @Liskeard_School The magazine of Liskeard School & Community College Head’s Letter Dear Parents, Carers and Friends of Liskeard School, As we hit the half-way mark of the academic year, it is a good time to reflect on what we have achieved so far and what we still need to do to ensure we get the best out of students. As always, there have been numerous activities taking place outside of the classroom, some of which are celebrated later in the magazine. These extra- curricular activities are a great way for students to develop personally: making new friendships, learning new skills, building confidence and raising aspiration. Our ‘In the Spotlight...’ feature this edition is a focus on students’ personal development from joining the school through to leaving us after Year 13. We have created an overview of the opportunities students are given as well as the character and attributes we are trying to develop. I hope you find it interesting. At this time of year I start to think about our areas for development as a school. To help with this, please could you use OFSTED’s Parent View survey to feedback your comments about your experience of ‘Team Liskeard’. The link to the survey is below. https://parentview.ofsted.gov.uk/login?destination=give-your-views We are currently exploring various changes to the school day for the next academic year. This includes the length of lessons, when tutor time takes place, how long break and lunch are and the timings of the school day.

  • 1 Introduction
    12 Chapter 1 Introduction 1.1 Background For commentators such as Urry (1990) and Woodward (2004), contemporary tourism has its roots in religious pilgrimage. Whilst this is contestable, for some domestic and overseas visitors, a holiday may, for a minority, incorporate twenty or thirty minutes in a parish church at some point. The roles have been reversed from travel for religious purposes incorporating secular pleasure, compare The Canterbury Tales and, perhaps, the Camino de Santiago (Murray & Graham 1997), to tourism including a visit or two to a religious establishment as just one of the destination attractions (Busby 2002; Olsen & Timothy 2006; Woodward 2004). “A resurgence of interest in visiting sacred sites” is how Shackley (2002) explains the recent growth in visitor numbers to cathedrals and churches despite a decline in the importance of religion in society as a whole (Wilson 1985). Indeed, this form is argued to be one of the major growth sectors in international tourism (Russell 1999; Woodward 2004). Empirical data to confirm these views is, however, quite limited; in fact, both Olsen & Timothy (2006) and Vukonić (1998) emphasise that it is one of the most under-researched aspects of tourism. Nonetheless, at a time of declining church congregations, it is interesting to note the development of documentaries over the last five years, by the BBC, featuring rural churches; whilst A Country Parish and A Seaside Parish paid only passing attention to the physical structures, A Passion for Churches, launched on 28 December 2005, emphasised the quality of building heritage – mention is also made of visitors‟ book comments in episode one, featuring St Hywyns, Aberdaron.
