Newsletter 25:5 2018
3rd March 2017 STANDING OUT THE MAGAZINE FOR MOUNTS BAY ACADEMY Photo: Mr Raggett Cover: Orienteering 25th May 2018 PRINCIPAL’S REPORT It’s in our DNA... I’m often asked by visitors when they come to the Academy, why do you think that your students seem to be such well balanced, confident and gregarious individuals compared to their counterparts in some areas of the country? The answer of course is due to many factors, firstly we live and work in one of the most beautiful places in the UK with its own unique history and culture. At Mounts Bay we then give all of our students the learning, personal mentoring and skills to enable them to use their time with us to the best of their advantage with the aim of making them “the best that they can be”. When you examine this more closely it is through a combination of the attributes we were born with and our learning experiences that result in our success. As we are in the throws of the GCSE examination timetable, I have been observing some of the work we are doing in our revision sessions and in Science they have been looking at what makes things the way they are. A fundamental element of this is DNA, or a set of instructions in each cell that tells it what it needs to do to grow and fulfil its function successfully. So the key to our success is that it’s already “in our DNA”, we just need to use the talents we were born with and follow the “instructions” in our Mounts Bay DNA. -

Just a Balloon Report Jan 2017
Just a Balloon BALLOON DEBRIS ON CORNISH BEACHES Cornish Plastic Pollution Coalition | January 2017 BACKGROUND This report has been compiled by the Cornish Plastic Pollution Coalition (CPPC), a sub-group of the Your Shore Network (set up and supported by Cornwall Wildlife Trust). The aim of the evidence presented here is to assist Cornwall Council’s Environment Service with the pursuit of a Public Spaces Protection Order preventing Balloon and Chinese Lantern releases in the Duchy. METHODOLOGY During the time period July to December 2016, evidence relating to balloon debris found on Cornish beaches was collected by the CPPC. This evidence came directly to the CPPC from members (voluntary groups and individuals) who took part in beach-cleans or litter-picks, and was accepted in a variety of formats:- − Physical balloon debris (latex, mylar, cords & strings, plastic ends/sticks) − Photographs − Numerical data − E mails − Phone calls/text messages − Social media posts & direct messages Each piece of separate balloon debris was logged, but no ‘double-counting’ took place i.e. if a balloon was found still attached to its cord, or plastic end, it was recorded as a single piece of debris. PAGE 1 RESULTS During the six month reporting period balloon debris was found and recorded during beach cleans at 39 locations across Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly shown here:- Cornwall has an extensive network of volunteer beach cleaners and beach cleaning groups. Many of these are active on a weekly or even daily basis, and so some of the locations were cleaned on more than one occasion during the period, whilst others only once. -

INTRODUCTION angular, subangular, subrounded, and very occasional rounded clasts, There is a long history of placer mining for cassiterite in southwest of tourmalinised metasediments and granitoids in a sandy silt matrix.

Recent exploration has, however, made new data The Head assay value from Carne Cliff, a distal periglacial head available for interpretation (Camm et al., 1981; Hosking and Camm, product, gave an assay value below the detection limit of 10 ppm Sn: 1983; Camm and Hosking, 1984; 1985). Research has continued into the proximal sample from Cot Valley a value, in contrast, of 185 ppm the mechanism of transportation and deposition by examining heavy Sn. -
