And so they come, and so they go The Dame, or titled Knight, Some shone, it seems, an age ago Short as a mayfly’s flight. Some were good, and some were poor It seems she’s met all sorts! The Queen smiles on, but to be sure – You’ll never guess her thoughts! “My Government shall this enact”, The Queen’s Speech – sixty times! At Christmas, too, she’s never lacked Encouraging seasonal lines. Through times of peace and times of strife She’s stood there at the helm, For she has lived her whole long life For the peoples of her realm. Of this one fact we may depend That few would be the tears If God should choose her life to extend To reign for lots more years! Well, you can't but admire her. God save the Queen! By Nigel Beeton PAGE 6 CAVERSWALL, DILHORNE & WESTON COYNEY POST Welcome Aboard! We warmly welcome Sylvia to the Church and Community Hi, I’m Sylvia Fraser and I have recently started in my post as Young People and Community Co-ordinator, based at St. An- drew’s, Weston Coyney, working across the Benefice with Caverswall and Dilhorne. I was born in Burton-on-Trent, and my family moved to Cheadle when I was ten. I have grown up in a Christian family, my father Catholic and my mother Anglican; she used to be a church secretary before we moved back to the area. I, along with my older brother, attended Painsley RC High School, where my mum became the first lady PTA Chair. After my A-levels at Moorlands 6th Form, I went to the University of Cumbria in Lan- caster (formerly St. Martin’s College) to train as a RE teacher. During my time in Lancaster my faith became much more active, regularly attending St. Thomas’ church and volunteering a large part of my time, leading youth and children’s groups in addition to helping with further outreach events, such as sharing a meal with the homeless and volunteering with Christian community outreach groups and working alongside Street Pastors to provide tea and coffee on a Saturday night (this project was started by Alice Parry and other members of the 20’s-30’s group at St. T’s). I got engaged in February 2011 to Daniel, who also studied at Cumbria. We both gradu- ated in July, whereupon I started part-time work in Lancaster and he returned to his par- ents in Devon to work also. We are hoping to both work and settle in the area and look forward to getting married soon after. Beginning here at St. Andrew’s and within the community has been really enjoyable and I look forward to working alongside staff, volunteers and the church community to inspire and encourage both the young people and the community. Recently at 4 Points Club, I was able to lead on the point of the Cross. I started with the point that it only takes one step to choose to follow Jesus, before we watched a YouTube clip of a skit of Lifehouse’s Everything.

  • Proposals Regarding a Federation of the Three Schools from 1St September 2013
    Working together for success: proposals regarding a Federation of the three schools from 1st September 2013. Where we are now Dilhorne Endowed C. E. (A) Primary School and St. Werburgh’s C. E. (A) Primary School agreed to work in a collaboration (sometimes called a Soft Federation) from September 2011 to August 31st 2012 which was subsequently extended to August 31st 2013). In April 2012 the two schools were joined by the Valley Primary School to complete the existing partnership of three schools which share an Executive Headteacher and work closely together in the very best interests of all our children in all three schools. Our experience of this collaborative arrangement has enabled us to make the following judgements and observations on the advantages and challenges of working in a collaboration with a ‘shared’ Headteacher during a time of fast educational change and increasing demands on Governing Bodies.

  • Quakerism in Staffordshire 31
    Quaftemm in A. G. MATTHEWS, M.A., of Oxted, formerly of Tettenhall Wood, near Wolverhampton, has written a useful book, The Congregational Churches of Staffordshire, with some account of the Puritans, Presbyterians, Baptists and Quakers in the county during the seventeenth century (London : Congregational Union, 7^ by 4$, pp. 275). Under the heading of " Henry Haggar, of Stafford," is recorded a dispute in 1654 at Harlaston, between Thomas Pollard, Baptist minister, of Lichfield, and Richard Farnsworth, the Quaker, with a reference to the resultant discussion in print by Farnsworth, Pollard and Haggar (p. 35. see Smith, Adv. Cata.). " The activity of the Quakers was chiefly directed, though by no means confined, to the Moorlands about Leek/' Richard Hickock, of Chester, was at Leek in 1654 and Thomas Hamersley, of Berry Hill, a Baptist, became a convert (pp. 36, 38). He went to Newcastle (Staffs.), and was the means of detaching Humphrey Woolrich from the Baptist to the Quaker persuasion (p. 39). Sir Bryan Broughton ( - ), of Beaudesert, was a leader in the county and arch-opponent of dissent; he set himself to unravel plots and destroy plotters believed to be at work in the district and elsewhere. At first he included Quakers with Baptists and Independents, but he later cleared the Quakers as refusing to fight and being only well wishers to the rebels (p. 60). Under the heading of "A Quaker Funeral," we have the account of the attendance of John Gratton, when " prisoner " at Derby, at the funeral of Robert Mellor, of Whitehough, in the parish of Ipstones, in 1684 (p.
