The Key Stage 1 play is being rehearsed, Christmas cards are being made and end of term fun is under way. It has been lovely to see the children’s enthusiasm for their topics and new areas of learning this term. Over the last couple of weeks staff have been busy planning and undertaking a variety of visits with the children to support these topics. One of these was the residential visit to Goose Green which saw all of the year 5 pupils together. The Year 5s in Camp gathered with their friends from Stanley to learn about the settlement, Hope Place and the local environment. Some great memories and photos were shared with the rest of school on their return. The year 4 children also enjoyed a beautifully sunny day out at Gypsy Cove learning all about native flora and fauna a great way to make the most of our locality. All year groups (except FS2 who swim next term) have been refining their swimming skills in PE lessons this term and these will be put to use in the gala and fun sessions this week. Good luck to everyone. Next term we will have a new member of staff joining us when we return from the holidays.

    Index to Bulletins 1-268 of the British West Indies Study

    INDEX TO BULLETINS 1-268 OF THE BRITISH WEST INDIES STUDY CIRCLE Published by the British West Indies Study Circle Index to Bulletins 1-260 CONTENTS Preface Month/Year of Bulletins Numbers Anguilla Antigua Bahamas Barbados Barbuda Belize Bermuda British Guiana British Honduras British Virgin Islands British West Indies Cayman Islands Dominica Exhibitions Grenada Grenada Grenadines Guyana Jamaica Leeward Islands Miscellaneous Items Montserrat Nevis St.Christopher St.Christopher, Nevis and Anguilar St.Kitts St.Kitts-Nevis St.Lucia St.Vincent Tobago Trinidad Trinidad and Tobago Turks Islands Turks & Caicos Islands Windward Islands 1 Index to Bulletins 1-268 PREFACE This index has been prepared following on from the sterling efforts of Victor Toeg, who undertook the enormous task of producing the index to bulletins 1-100, and Michael Wilson who produced 101-127 and 128-151, each published as a separate index. With the advent of the Word Processor the opportunity has been taken to convert these original hard copy indexes into electronic format, to amalgamate them into one document, and to bring the index up to date. From this point forward future indexing will be relatively straightforward and the index will be updated within a short period after each bulletin is published. To those members with a PC it will be available on-line, alternatively up-to-date hard copy prints will be available on request from the Publications Officer. The index now provides easy access to an enormous corpus of high quality information covering virtually every topic within British West Indies philately. As the number of subjects covered has expanded over the years it has been deemed necessary to sub-divide the topics under each colony heading into four separate categories, each entry being listed in alphabetical order.

    Index to The Airpost Journal Vol 61-79 1990-2008 Index to THE AIRPOST JOURNAL VOLUMES 61 - 79 Page Section 1 Introduction 2 Airpost Journal Index 59 Author Index INTRODUCTION I have been a member of the American Air Mail Society for many years and during that time I have not done anything useful, except the payment of annual dues. One of the rules I have always adopted is if you are a member of a Society you should do something to further the cause of that body. My opportunity came when I read the President's Message in the December 2008 Air Mail Journal that he wanted somebody to up date the Index of the Air Post Journal so I volunteered little knowing of the task that I was undertaking. I am not a professional indexer but have had a little experience in indexing magazines in the UK. The task was to index the magazines from 1990 to 2008 (228 magazines) roughly in line with the index published in 1992. As previously stated the index continues from the previous edition except that I have included items from Letters to the Editor. I feel that there is much information contained in these letters which is of value to aerophilatelists. To quote the previous index "The APJ Index is meant to be a document helpful, but not comprehensive" and I have tried to continue in this vein. That said I hope that the Index will prove to be of some use. Needless to say any errors, omissions etc are entirely down to me.
