Magazine 2012 EDITORIAL Magazine 2012 EDITORIAL This past year has been no exception to the busyness and talent filled years of St Helens. When starting out with the challenge of creating this magazine, we wanted to capture the enthusiasm, vibrancy and passion of this year, including also our support for the “Because I am a girl” campaign, so focusing particularly on the “power” of the girl. Our vision for this year’s magazine was to incorporate every aspect of school life and combine these strands in a way that would reflect the character of the school, and the girls and staff that make it. We felt very strongly that every girl, who wished to be, should be included, in order that this would be a personal reflection, for everyone, of 2012. So we have included whole year pages, in order that all girls are featured and also have a say in how their year is represented. We have had not only the editorial team, but representatives from every form, designing the layouts and forming the content of these pages, so that there would be a genuine student feel to the magazine. We are conscious, also, of retaining the balance between reflecting the present moment in time and styles of today, yet also moulding something that will withstand the test of time. Despite work being temporarily lost, the school network shutting down, creating a larger more complex magazine in a much shorter time period, the team has risen to these challenges in true St Helens spirit. But none of this would have been possible without the smiles, support and guidance of Mr Drew - we thank you for everything you have helped and encouraged us to achieve. And of course to Chris Busby, whose invaluable patience and technical expertise has never failed and has always been at hand. Being part of this wonderful team has been a challenging and great experience, and we hope that the time, effort and care that has undoubtedly been worked into every page, is evident as your read through this past year.

The answer to the question of whether the magazine still has a place has been a resounding ‘yes’ at St Helen’s and I am delighted to introduce this year’s, which is a product of wide consultation by the Editorial Team plus their own vision for the style and content of a publication which represents all pupils and records the work and activities in their year. The year 2011-12 was certainly one full of creativity which was expressed in so many different ways. Through drama and music, with the outstanding produc- tions of Cabaret and our first opera, Dido and Aeneas; through debating and pub- lic speaking which has grown so positively; through art and ceramics, with the wonderful Summer Art Exhibition; and through movement, with our first Dance and Choreography Competition. Creativity was at the heart of the entrepreneurial activities of Young Enterprise and in all the girls’ stalls at the Christmas Fair; it was evident in the photographic response of Year 9 to their visit to the World War 1 bat- tlefields and in the imaginative Olympic competitions initiated by the PE Depart- ment which were such an excellent addition to the sporting year. It has been a superb year of growth and development both for individuals and for the school and I am sure you will enjoy a sample of the life and spirit of the school in the pages which follow. 2 ST HELEN & ST KATHARINE Magazine 2012 Prefects Being a Prefect at St Helen and St Katharine Being elected as a prefect adds a new dimension to your final year at St Helen’s: as well as studying for your A levels you are given a new role of responsibility and you are taking part in the running of the school. It is really lovely to work with the nineteen other girls in our year to carry out tasks to help with events, and there is a great sense of achievement when we realise what a strong team we have become. Having worked our way up the school, with our own memories of what each year entails, we are now able to give back to the school using first-hand experience. Whether it is supervising a cover period, or helping girls on their induction days, we have been in their shoes and are now enjoying the St Helen’s experience from the other side, at the other end of the school. And we all agree that the Saturday mornings we spend in school are worth it for the notorious boaters that will have a place in our rooms when we have left, to remind us of the fantastic last year we shared with our fellow prefects. Venice Shrier ST HELEN & ST KATHARINE Magazine 2012 3 Chapel Where do you go in the middle of a busy school to find some space? To find some time to simply be still, to gather your thoughts, to gain a sense of perspective in the midst of an often frenetic world? Here at SHSK we are very fortunate to have such a space in the chapel. At any time, girls and staff are able to seek out the peace and sanctuary it offers. The stained glass cross at the front, encircled by the wheel, is not only a reminder of how our patron saint Katharine was martyred for her faith, but a focus for quiet reflection on the things that are important in our own lives. The prayer board and the votive candles both provide opportunities to offer prayers to God for people or other issues that we may be concerned about. Not only is the chapel at the heart of the worshipping life of the community – with both choral and contemporary worship styles now accommodated – it’s also used for occasional weddings and bap- tisms for those who have a connection with the school. Again, the aspect visitors always comment on is the sense of peace within its walls – no doubt as a result of the many prayers that have been offered down the years. And what do girls who’ve left the school often miss most...incredibly, it’s the cha- pel services! Out in the working world, rarely is there the opportunity to begin a day in collective worship, cultivating a right relationship with God and receiving His strength, comfort and encourage- ment for all that day might bring! Reverend Taft 4 ST HELEN & ST KATHARINE Magazine 2012 Our school charity of the year is Jubilee Pageant Plan UK’s ‘Because I am a Girl’.

  • 1944 All-American Girls Baseball League
    HISTORY MAKER BASEBALL 1944 All-American Girls Professional Baseball League One of the top movies of 1992 was the film “A League of Their Own,” starring Tom Hanks, Geena Davis, Rosie O’Donnell and Madonna, a story about a women’s professional baseball league formed during World War II. The movie was a critical and commercial success, earning glowing reviews, topping the box office by its second week of release, and earning over $150 million in ticket sales. The catch phrase, “There’s no crying in baseball!”—uttered by Rockford Peaches manager Jimmy Dugan (played by Hanks) made the American Film Instutute’s list of Greatest Movie Lines of All-Time, and the film itself was selected by the Library of Congress in 2012 for preservation in the National Film Registry, as being “culturally, historically or aesthetically significant.” Interestingly, when the film opened in ’92, relatively few of the people who saw it knew that it was based on an actual, real-life league—many thought it was complete fiction. But the fictionalized account portrayed in the movie was, in fact, based on a very real story. The All-American Girls Professional Baseball League was formed in 1943 out of concern that with so many players serving in World War II, big league baseball might be forced to suspend operations. The idea was that perhaps women could keep the game active and on the minds of baseball fans until the men could return from the war. The new league was bankrolled by big league owners, conducted nation-wide tryouts to stock its four inaugural teams with talented women players, and began competitive play in the spring of ’43—just as the movie’s screenplay detailed.

  • Dr D.I.Scargill Email: [email protected] Website
    OXFORD GREEN BELT NETWORK Chairman: Dr D.I.Scargill Email: [email protected] Website: www.oxfordgreenbelt.net NEWSLETTER - MARCH 2016 We hope that this Newsletter might be distributed as widely as possible, especially amongst members of Parish Councils and Parish Meetings with an interest in the Oxford Green Belt. We continue to value the support of parishes and are always glad to hear of their concerns. The present Newsletter is largely concerned with the background to what is happening in the Oxford Green Belt and, as such, is devoted to planning in the broad sense rather than to day-to-day planning applications. But that does not mean that the Oxford Green Belt Network ignores the latter and we keep an eye on all the applications that affect the Green Belt and respond to those which we think threaten its aims and purposes. It is our intention later this year to revert to our practice of holding an open AGM to which all the Oxford Green Belt parishes will be invited to send a representative should they wish to do so. It is likely to be held in a village hall, most probably at Sandford-on-Thames, and details will be circulated in due course. We also welcome nominations from parishes for people who might serve on our Committee. Purposes of the Green Belt We are sometimes asked what the officially recognized purposes of a Green Belt are. Here they are, from the Green Belt section of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) which is the Government document that determines the nature of planning: To check the unrestricted sprawl of large built-up areas; To prevent neighbouring towns merging into one another; To assist in safeguarding the countryside from encroachment; To preserve the setting and special character of historic towns; To assist in urban regeneration by encouraging the recycling of derelict land and other urban land.
