  • Success on the Court
    LIFELENT 2020 Success on the court An unforgettable Hairspray performance Annual Junior Literary Festival Educational partnership with the Mobius Foundation Whitgift Minster Choristers live on BBC One Midnight Mass 1st XV crowned National Hockey Champions Global Citizenship launch for Junior Years and more inside… Hairspray The West End arrives in South Croydon! In December 2019, the West End came to South Croydon with a wonderful performance of Hairspray staged in Big School. Backcombed beehives, styled kisscurls and glittering costume all made this three night sell-out performance a huge hit. With period glitz, nostalgic glamour and toe-tapping numbers, the cast, production team and band, transported the audience back to 1960s downtown Baltimore. The musical (a record-setter which won the 2003 Olivier and Tony Awards for Best Musical for Marc Shaiman) follows teenager Tracy Turnblad’s dream of hitting the big time dancing on The Corny Collins Show amidst a backdrop of racial segregation and elitism. When Tracy wins a role on the show, she becomes a celebrity overnight, leading to social change as Tracy campaigns for the show’s integration. A big thank you to all those who pulled this production together, particularly Mr Michael and Mrs Carter who directed the performance, and congratulations to the whole cast, including students from Old Palace of John Whitgift and WAVPA, Whitgift’s Saturday Performing Arts School. 2 WHITGIFT LIFE performing arts Hairspray The West End arrives in South Croydon! ‘With period glitz, nostalgic glamour and toe-tapping numbers Hairspray was a huge hit’ WHITGIFT LIFE 3 ‘Celebrating the power news of poetry to bring National Poetry Day people together’ To celebrate National Poetry Day He performed one of his poems on Thursday 3 October, poetic ‘Getting Older’ from his new rapper and storytelling songwriter, book Reasons to Write Rhymes in Rob Bradley was invited to Whitgift an Upper School assembly.

  • Gs 1873 General Synod “Testing the Bridges
    GS 1873 GENERAL SYNOD “TESTING THE BRIDGES”: UNDERSTANDING THE ROLE OF THE CHURCH AMIDST RIOTS, DISTURBANCES AND DISORDER A report from the Mission and Public Affairs Council Why this report now? 1. Much research and analysis has been devoted to the disturbances which broke out in many neighbourhoods in August 2011. It is not the intention of this paper to duplicate that work or to reach definitive conclusions about the disturbances as a whole. Rather it seeks to highlight and reflect upon the actions of the churches in those neighbourhoods, during and after the disturbances, drawing on actions and events as the church people themselves described them. 2. Nor is this simply a retrospective exercise. The financial crisis of 2008, the impact of austerity measures introduced by the Coalition government since 2010, the “double-dip” recession and the ongoing effect of the wider economic problems in Europe, are pressing hard on many communities in Britain. Inevitably, it is the most vulnerable communities which are hardest hit and, as in previous recessions, local churches are becoming acutely aware of the stresses on individuals, families and community resilience. 3. At the meeting of the College of Bishops in September 2011, reports were received from many dioceses about the responses of clergy, laity and church groups during the disturbances. It was clear that the significance of the church’s ministry, and the lessons to be gained from it, needed to be gathered together and the Mission and Public Affairs Division was commissioned to produce a report. 4. The fieldwork for the report which follows was conducted by the Revd Dr Andrew Davey before he left MPA in February 2012 to return to urban parish ministry and was developed in close collaboration with the Urban Bishops’ Panel.
