Kelvedon Hatch Last week the Senior Able pupil group visited the government nuclear bunker at Kelvedon Hatch.The bunker was designed to accommodate up to 600 military and civilian personnel, including the Prime Minister, whose collective task it would have been to organise the survival of the population in the awful aftermath of a nuclear war. The bunker was in use until 1994. The boys entered the bunker via a simple bungalow, just inside there was a 120m long tunnel which led to the blast doors and main bunker. While in there the boys saw communications equipment, early warning detection systems, maps, the Which button do you want us to press Mr President? sewage and waste systems, living quarters and the hospital. The boys ready for action!

Having lost the toss KHS took to the field. After 10 overs Priory were 75 for 1 and looked set to score an impressive total. The KHS team didn’t give up at any stage; indeed they showed great resilience and determination to remove 5 batsmen for only 48 runs in the remaining 10 overs! Fraser Trimmings, Parth Gupta and Finlay Scott all bowled straight but it was Jack Fernandes with 3-11 who recorded the best figures. For the second match running Matthew Garner and Finlay Scott set the foundation for the team’s successful run chase. They put on 49 for the first wicket, and then Finlay and Fraser put on another 41 for the second wicket. With 8 overs to go the team still needed 8 runs per over and even with 5 overs remaining 7 runs were required per over. Elliot Sinclair joined Fraser at the crease and the boys batted very sensibly to pass the Priory total of 124 to secure a win by 8 wickets. Man of the match was Finlay Scott for scoring a flawless 39 and bowling well.

  • Stamford Green Conservation Area Character Appraisal and Management Proposals October 2007 STAMFORD GREEN CONSERVATION AREA APPRAISAL & MANAGEMENT PROPOSALS
    Stamford Green Conservation Area Character Appraisal and Management Proposals October 2007 STAMFORD GREEN CONSERVATION AREA APPRAISAL & MANAGEMENT PROPOSALS The Stamford Green Conservation Area is a truly special place. The patchwork of green open spaces and built development combine to provide a unique character which this document seeks to define and describe. It is our duty as Local Planning Authority to ensure, in our decision- making, that its special character is not only preserved but, wherever possible, enhanced. It is vital for those drawing up development proposals to understand the character of a place and for decision-makers to ensure that proposals are in keeping. It is also important for the local community to understand how those changes which they wish to make to the physical fabric of their properties can significantly affect the visual appearance of the area. We are confident that this statutory Appraisal document will provide the necessary tool for the positive management of the area by all concerned. It will help to ensure that change does not erode the essential spirit of the place and that positive enhancements are achieved. Councillor Mike Richardson Mark Berry Chairman Environment Committee Head of Planning Stamford Green Conservation Area Character Appraisal & Management Proposals This document has been written for Epsom and Ewell Borough Council by: The Conservation Studio, 1 Querns Lane, Cirencester, Glos GL7 1RL.

    KINGSWOOD NEWS Spring 2020 10 January 2020 Kingswood House School, Dear Parents 56 West Hill, Epsom, I trust you enjoyed a relaxing Christmas holiday with your families. KT19 8LG It is a great pleasure to see the boys back in school at the start of a busy and exhilarating School Office: Spring Term. I also offer a warm welcome back to Julie Marskell who returns as the form 01372 723590 teacher in Year 3. In my first assembly, as is customary in January, I highlighted the [email protected] significance of New Year as an apposite time for reflection and ambition. I challenged the boys to make up their own resolutions and set themselves some attainable targets for the Sports Line: 01372 746590 months ahead. Please do take the time to discuss this with them - together with the advice that evidence suggests an effective resolution typically helps others, not just Study Centre: themselves, in some way. 01372 746594 The Kingswood House Way character value for this term is www.kingswoodhouse.org INTEGRITY. Some of the key aspects of this quality, which we shall be looking at in more depth with the boys, are loyalty, The Kingswood House Way trust and empathy. These precepts were personified by the tragic heroism of Captain Lawrence ‘Titus’ Oates on Scott’s expedition to the South Pole in 1912 and I explored with the boys the symbolism behind his historic words: “I am just going outside and may be some time.” We now have a fantastic ‘character’ badge, designed by Ruari Fitzpatrick, and I hope to award a number of these each term to deserving candidates.
