  • Thank You to Everyone Who Came Along to Our Fourth Senior Schools’ Fair on Saturday
    Thank you to everyone who came along to our fourth Senior Schools’ Fair on Saturday. You answered the invitation to attend with customary Hazelwood enthusiasm and we were delighted to welcome over 220 parents to the event. It was lovely too to be able to welcome a growing number of families from outside of the immediate Hazelwood family to the Sports Hall, fulfilling the intent of making it a local community event. The 35 schools who came along were both impressed and bowled over by the turnout and the professional way in which the Fair was staged. They all said that it was one of the best that they attend (and some of them attend quite a few!) They were also all full of praise for the five Year 8 pupils who were asked to be on hand to help with the smooth running of the morning. From carrying cups of tea and coffee, to amassing a good stock of brochures to aid with future parent meetings on Senior School choice, to capturing the event on camera, Izzy, Francesca, Archie, Jack and Charlie were fabulous. They did not stop all morning and carried out their requested duties with a smile, presenting themselves as impeccable ambassadors for the school. They were part of the buzz which filled the Sports Hall from the moment the doors opened to the last dying minutes during which we had to usher the remaining parents to their cars! It was a hugely positive event and one which set an optimistic tone for the rest of my weekend.

  • The Dublin Gate Theatre Archive, 1928 - 1979
    Charles Deering McCormick Library of Special Collections Northwestern University Libraries Dublin Gate Theatre Archive The Dublin Gate Theatre Archive, 1928 - 1979 History: The Dublin Gate Theatre was founded by Hilton Edwards (1903-1982) and Micheál MacLiammóir (1899-1978), two Englishmen who had met touring in Ireland with Anew McMaster's acting company. Edwards was a singer and established Shakespearian actor, and MacLiammóir, actually born Alfred Michael Willmore, had been a noted child actor, then a graphic artist, student of Gaelic, and enthusiast of Celtic culture. Taking their company’s name from Peter Godfrey’s Gate Theatre Studio in London, the young actors' goal was to produce and re-interpret world drama in Dublin, classic and contemporary, providing a new kind of theatre in addition to the established Abbey and its purely Irish plays. Beginning in 1928 in the Peacock Theatre for two seasons, and then in the theatre of the eighteenth century Rotunda Buildings, the two founders, with Edwards as actor, producer and lighting expert, and MacLiammóir as star, costume and scenery designer, along with their supporting board of directors, gave Dublin, and other cities when touring, a long and eclectic list of plays. The Dublin Gate Theatre produced, with their imaginative and innovative style, over 400 different works from Sophocles, Shakespeare, Congreve, Chekhov, Ibsen, O’Neill, Wilde, Shaw, Yeats and many others. They also introduced plays from younger Irish playwrights such as Denis Johnston, Mary Manning, Maura Laverty, Brian Friel, Fr. Desmond Forristal and Micheál MacLiammóir himself. Until his death early in 1978, the year of the Gate’s 50th Anniversary, MacLiammóir wrote, as well as acted and designed for the Gate, plays, revues and three one-man shows, and translated and adapted those of other authors.

  • THE VALUE of SMALL GRANTS a Review by Peter Minet Trust and United St Saviour’S Charity March 2018 INTRODUCTION
    THE VALUE OF SMALL GRANTS A review by Peter Minet Trust and United St Saviour’s Charity March 2018 INTRODUCTION United St Saviour’s Charity (UStSC) and Peter Minet Trust (Peter Minet) have been awarding small grants in South London for many years. In 2017 they joined forces to commission Rocket Science to review their grants programmes to better understand the impact that they make and to help the two organisations think about how to develop them for the future. Peter Minet supports organisations in Lambeth and Southwark with grants of up to £5,000. UStSC only works in Southwark and has two grants programmes; a ‘Community Investment’ programme’ of over £5,000 for larger strategic projects and a ‘Community Engagement’ programme of small grants. Only the latter was the subject of this review which looked back at the past three years of grant-making. Measuring the impact of small grants is inherently challenging and it was never the intention to produce a full-blown evaluation. However, both organisations set out to understand whether relatively small grants were of value to the groups and charities they fund. This document summarises the main findings of the review. In many ways it is a celebration of the two programmes and the difference that they make. 2 INVESTMENT OVER THREE YEARS COMBINED United St Saviour’s Charity 321 206 GRANTS AWARDED GRANTS £440,366 INVESTED 149 DIFFERENT ORGANISATIONS FUNDED £853,873 TOTAL INVESTMENT Peter Minet Trust 115 GRANTS AWARDED 243 £413,507 INVESTED DIFFERENT ORGANISATIONS 94 DIFFERENT ORGANISATIONS FUNDED

  • Celebrating 20 Years of the Camberwell Arts Festival
    Celebrating 20 years of the Camberwell Arts Festival CATALOGUING CAMBERWELL 1 This year, the Camberwell Arts Festival celebrated its 20th birthday. From its infancy, the festival has brought life to little known locations, enabling new, emerging and established artists to take to the streets and create a narrative about the area we live and work in. And in 2014 it was all about the number 20! From pubs to parks, cafes to crypts, the whole of Camberwell becomes the gallery and performance space, inviting residents and visitors alike to explore the area in new and unexpected ways. As Camberwell evolves, so too does the organisation: Camberwell Arts prides itself on placing partnership at its heart. This year’s festival and the catalogue showcase this: from our work with Southwark Pensioners to the inclusion of Literary Kitchen, we’re open to all – and are committed to maintaining this going forward. As we look to the next 20 years, we’ve expanded our board and are casting the net even wider during these challenging times for the arts. Planning is already underway for the 2015 Festival, which will take place from 20–28 June; what happens during that week is as much up to you as it is to us! To find out more, submit an idea or get involved visit us at: www.camberwellarts.org.uk Michael Armstrong, Chair of Camberwell Arts 2 NEIGHBOURPUD WATCH TICKETS PLEASE!

  • The Future of Fairfield Halls
    THE FUTURE OF FAIRFIELD HALLS Sean Creighton, Norbury resident, historian, and Co-ordinator of the Samuel Coleridge-Taylor Network A discussion contribution by Sean FRED SCOTT, CROYDON PIANIST, ON WORKING WITH FH FH has always been co-operative in allowing me to book events there focused on performances involving local young artists across genres of music. ‘Soundpractice has staged events including lunchtime concerts, pre-concert foyer performances and events for last year's Coleridge-Taylor Festival. This last especially was a great forum for young people to perform; some students of mine were able to have premiered a piece they had written around SCT, also involving LMP in the performance. Last November saw local Youth Theatre Company Studio 74 give the first performance in Ashcroft Theatre of a new musical by Stella Coussell (South London composer) called 'Song for the World', based around the life of SCT, a further performance for BHM 2013 is currently being arranged. in addition, Soundpractice has been able to put on concerts as fund-raisers for Skeletal Cancer Action Trust, some of these have featured people affected by that disease. More of these concerts are planned for 2014. There will be a series of concerts in Spring 2014 which will raise funds for SCAT, involving a celebration of the 80th birthday of eminent British composer, and South London resident, Justin Connolly, who will also be performing himself. Future concerts in 2014 will also include prominent international artists in recital who bring their considerable following to Croydon. Included in current planning is to stage a major international-reach multi-genre music festival culminating in a collaboration to find instrumentalists, composers and conductors of excellence.
