ROYAL BIRTHDAY PARTY A VISIT AT THE ROYAL FAMILY Árpád School trip to England 13-20 May 2019. "This year about 60 students came on the England trip to South London. The trip lasted for 8 days from April 13th to the 20th. The first day was spent travelling, and we stopped in Germany to look at the Limburg Cathedral. We spent the night near the German-Belgian border. In the morning we continued our trip and travelled through the Channel Tunnel and finally arrived in England. That day we had also been to the queen's favourite castle, the Walmer Castle. In the evening we met our host families, who we were going to spend the week at. Our family was very nice and generous, and so the week was very enjoyable with them. Next day we went to the Westminster Abbey where we saw a lot of English kings' tombs. Our next stop was St. James Park and the Buckingham Palace, where we saw the changing of the guards. We then made our way to Trafalgar Square through Piccadilly Circus, Soho and China town. Some of us went to the National Gallery, where we saw a lot of fascinating paintings (some of them were made by Van Gogh and Monet!). The next day we overcame our fear of heights by going to the 72nd floor of The Shard (which is 310 metres tall). We also went on a walk alongside the River Thames by Golden Hinde, Globe theatre and across the Millennium Bridge. On the next day we visited England's oldest and largest inhabited castle, the Windsor castle. On the 6th day we finished our journey in England and on the way home we visited Brugge. We visited Alden Biesen and its Castle. The following day we made our way to Maastricht and we took a small trip to the 3 countries’ border and we also went on a sightseeing tour in Aachen. The last day, we enjoyed the bus's comfort and by 6 pm we could reunite with our families at home." Radnai Réka, Pávó Anna Zsófia 8.a .

The Rees and Carrington Extracts
THE REES AND CARRINGTON EXTRACTS CUMULATIVE INDEX – PEOPLE, PLACES AND THINGS – TO 1936 (INCLUSIVE) This index has been compiled straight from the text of the ‘Extracts’ (from January 1914 onwards, these include the ‘Rees Extracts’. – in the Index we have differentiated between them by using the same date conventions as in the text – black date for Carrington, Red date for Rees). In listing the movements, particularly of Kipling and his family, it is not always clear when who went where and when. Thus, “R. to Academy dinner” clearly refers to Kipling himself going alone to the dinner (as, indeed would have been the case – it was, in the 1890s, a men-only affair). But “Amusing dinner, Mr. Rhodes’s” probably refers to both of them going, and has been included as an entry under both Kipling, Caroline, and Kipling, Rudyard. There are many other similar events. And there are entries recording that, e.g., “Mrs. Kipling leaves”, without any indication of when she had come – but if it’s not in the ‘Extracts’ (though it may well have been in the original diaries) then, of course, it has not been possible to index it. The date given is the date of the diary entry which is not always the date of the event. We would also emphasise that the index does not necessarily give a complete record of who the Kiplings met, where they met them and what they did. It’s only an index of what remains of Carrie’s diaries, as recorded by Carrington and Rees. (We know a lot more about those people, places and things from, for example, Kipling’s published correspondence – but if they’re not in the diary extracts, then they won’t be found in this index.) Another factor is that both Carrington and Rees quite often mentions a name without further explanation or identification.

Major Warren Richard Colvin Wynne R.E
Major Warren Richard Colvin Wynne R.E. Architect of Fort Tenedos and Eshowe Adrian Greaves ________________________________________________________________________________________________ Warren Wynne was born on the 9th April 1843 in County Louth, Ireland. He was educated at New Cross Royal Naval School where he distinguished himself by winning numerous prizes, especially for classics and mathematics. He was equally successful at the Royal Military Academy, Woolwich, and passed out in fourth position, which entitled him to a commission in the Royal Engineers. He was accordingly gazetted to the Corps on the 25th June 1862 aged nineteen. To place his success in context, each course commenced with 200 aspiring officer cadets but, due to the rigorous training, often ended with no more than 25 to 30 successfully completing the course. With regard to other notable cadets, the Prince Imperial had been placed seventh out of 35 and Chard was eighteenth out of nineteen. Wynne’s initial posting was to Gibraltar and towards the end of his first year he was appointed to the position of Acting Adjutant. His next posting was to Guildford and then to nearby Reading as a surveying officer for the Ordnance Survey and for the next few uneventful years he was directly responsible for contouring many of the detailed Ordnance Survey maps of Berkshire, Hampshire and Sussex. In December 1878 he was posted to Shorncliffe as a Captain in command of the 2nd Field Company which was under orders to proceed to South Africa for service in the impending invasion of Zululand. At this stage of his career, Wynne’s promotion had not been spectacular; promotion in the Corps relied on seniority and not merit, resulting in him spending 12 years as a Lieutenant.

Its flat shores and proximity to Europe have attracted many overseas invaders from Julius Caesar’s Roman legions to Napoleon’s warships, from First World War bombers to Hitler’s planned invasion in 1940. But humans are not the only threat to this part of Britain’s coast. This coastline faces constant attack from the powerful forces of the North Sea. Wave and storm erosion along this coastline creates both threat and opportunity in a constantly shifting landscape. This walk explores the dynamic East Kent coast from the medieval village of Old Walmer to the twenty-first century seaside town of Deal.

Walmer Design Statement (January 2006)
This document is dedicated to the memory of Derek W. Featherstone Chairman of the Walmer Design Statement Group April 2001 - August 2003 The Walmer Design Statement Group The Group was formed in April 2001, with the support of Walmer Parish Council, to prepare and publish a Design Statement for the Parish of Walmer. It is recognised that decisions made on planning matters within the parish must conform to current local authority planning policy. This Statement has been produced by the local community and is intended to influence the operation of the statutory planning system and give guidance for the design of all development in Walmer. Our objectives were: • to focus on the special character and design features in different parts of this large and diverse parish, • to set out Design Principles that could be applied appropriately, and • to give local residents an opportunity to influence future planning decisions in a constructive way. The document prepared had to represent their vision. The document has been the subject of a six-week public consultation exercise arranged by Dover District Council. Some alterations were made on the basis of comments received. Dover District Council has agreed to adopt the Walmer Design Statement as a material planning consideration in the assessment and determination of planning applications. ________ The Design Statement Group would like to express its appreciation to those listed Front Cover: Walmer Castle below for the time and expertise they gave to assist in the preparation of this Back Cover : Royal Marines Memorial Bandstand document.
