  • BRENTWOOD (28Th JULY 2012)
    BRENTWOOD (28th JULY 2012) INTRODUCTION The end of July 2012 saw a busy 24 hours for me, as I mixed sports with religion, but not at the same time. I had already planned a Saturday visit to Brentwood, but a belated decision took me off to Maldon on the Friday night to the football. At that time I was quite friendly with the parents of current first teamer at Colchester United, Alex Gilbey, who then was a member of their Under 18’s youth team, and on a few occasions, I managed to get lifts to away games. Now I had a thought, that I might get a lift, but to keep the story short, his dad, Scott, when I rang was on a train back from London to North Station, and I was told, if I could get to Nat West Lexden, in about 30 minutes, I could have a lift, it was a breathless me who just about made it, and a lift was secured. Coincidentally Colchester won the match 2-1. Part two of the story, was that Colchester had another match the next day in Brentwood, he said that I could have a lift back, but not there, as he had some building work to do in the morning. Hence i have a story to tell, about my morning there in the town. THE JOURNEY DOWN From what I can recall, I had never been to Brentwood, I had been around it on the A12, I had been through it, when going to girls football match in Brentwood, and further down in Aveley.

  • The Diocese of Brentwood Cathedral House, Ingrave Road, Brentwood
    The Diocese of Brentwood Cathedral House, Ingrave Road, Brentwood, Essex, CM15 8AT A five year vision for Diocese of Brentwood Education Department 2017 - 2022 A key challenge for Catholic Education today is to be true to the mission of the Catholic Church and to respond appropriately in order to preserve and develop our Catholic Schools in the changing educational world in which they exist. Underpinning our educational vision are a number of overarching aims of Catholic Education which need to be promoted by the Diocesan Education Department and by our Catholic schools and Academies. Consequently we are committed: 1. To proclaim and promote Jesus Christ as the foundation and centre of the school community and of its evangelising mission within the Church’s overall pastoral mission. (cf. Evangelii Gaudium 121,134,265; Dominus Iesus 15). 2. To believe that all are created in God’s image and likeness, are children of one God and part of one sacred family as brothers and sisters sharing a common humanity and for whom the Spirit “is mysteriously present in every human heart” (Redemptoris Missio 29). (cf. The Catholic School 85). 3. To promote the common humanity that binds us together by building a sense of belonging, community and interdependence within our schools for the common good. (cf. The Catholic school on the threshold of the third Millennium 18; Evangelii Gaudium 24). 4. To affirm and respect that one’s religious beliefs are an important element in a person’s identity to which one has an inalienable right. (cf. Declaration on Human Rights 18; Nostra Aetate 2; The Religious Dimension of Education in a Catholic School 6; European Convention on Human Rights, art.

  • Children's Centre No Change – Telephone Service Is Main the Old School Hall in Addition to Current Hours Beridge Road 40 Hrs
    Your Essex is changing about it let’s talk Have your say... Shaping Future Services from April 2014 Essex Sure Start Children’s Centres Shaping Future Services from April 2014 Public Consultation 17 October 2013 - 5 December 2013 Essex County Council wants your views as it starts a formal public consultation into children’s centre service delivery Foreword Sure Start1 children’s centre services are an important part of delivering early support for children, young people and their families in Essex. Essex County Council is committed to delivering children’s centre services at a time when the financial challenges that we face are unprecedented. Reduced funding from central government, together with the impact of inflation and increasing demands for services means Essex County Council needs to save around £215m by 2016-17. This is on top of the £365m already saved over the previous three years. Simply put, we can’t afford to deliver everything we want to. We are therefore consulting on making savings of £2.5m from the children’s centre budget between 2014 and 2016 and this can only be achieved by working smarter and focussing use of our resources on actual services for children and less on buildings and other overheads. We are pleased to be able to announce proposals we believe can achieve these objectives in the most efficient way possible, making maximum use of buildings and the staff delivering services. We propose to extend our current contracts from April 2014 until March 2016 to ensure that children’s centre services continue across the county for another two years with no overall reduction in the level of services currently being delivered.
