Jeff, Adelina, Adrian and family BLEWBURY SCHOOL APPOINTS A NEW HEAD Blewbury School is delighted to announce Miss Jo Reeder as its permanent new Head of School, who will join the School from September 2021. Jo Reeder will for her first year be working alongside Miss Lisa Austin who will continue as the School’s 0.5 Executive Headteacher. See page 7 for full story. BLEWBURY MARKET Our first Blewbury Market was held on Sunday 16th May. It was a great success with many visitors attending from Blewbury and the surrounding villages. The weather was very kind to us and there was a real buzz from everyone including the stall holders. We have had some lovely feedback from people. Due to the success of the market we have set a date for the next one, which will be held in the car park at Blewbury Village Hall on SUNDAY 13th JUNE from 10-2 pm. We are hoping to make it a regular event. The money raised each time (minus costs) from the stall holders fees will go to a chosen Village Charity or club each time. This time we raised £100 for Blewbury Pre-School. Please note that there will be very limited parking at the hall as we are increasing the number of stall holders for the next one as there is such popular demand for the stalls. We already have a lot of the stalls booked for the June Market, including Sweet Daisy, Creative Catering selling burgers, pork rolls etc, Sustainable Blewbury (plant stall), the WI (Cake stall), Blewbury Bread Company (Breads and savouries), and lots of arts and crafts including Damselfly Designs (beautifully handmade crafts), to name but a few. The Blewbury Players will also be there, complete with laptop computer, offering help with online booking for Romeo and Juliet for anyone who wants it (see their article on page 5). At the time of writing we do have a few spaces left for stall holders to book so if you are interested in booking a stall or have any other queries regarding the market please email [email protected] We would also like to thank Bruce Gibson (Village Hall) and Roger Murphy for their time and effort in helping to make the Market possible, and also Blewbury School for letting us use their car park. We look forward to seeing as many of you as possible on Sunday 13th June. Sheila Austin and Donna Bushnell (Market Organisers) YOU’RE INVITED TO BLEWBURY PRE-SCHOOL’S 50th ANNIVERSARY PARTY! Blewbury Pre-School is 50 years old! On Saturday 17th July 1.00 – 4.00 pm, please come and celebrate with us the wonderful achievement of 50 years’ care and education for the children of Blewbury and surrounding villages. We welcome you all back to have a look around, reminisce about those happy Pre- School days, look at old photos, and see what we have been doing recently. There will be afternoon tea, ice-creams and light refreshments on sale. ANY OLD MODS OR ROCKERS OUT THERE? The Blewbury Players' production of Romeo and Juliet is to be set in the 1960s. We are looking at Mods and Rockers, rather than hippies. Has anyone kept their leather jacket, their winklepickers, their khaki parka? Or their long jacket, with narrow lapels? And would you be prepared to lend them to us? We would be most grateful. Please call me, on 01235 850701. Thank you! Vanessa Fox RED LION UPDATE Our preparation for the reopening is going well, but there’s a ton more to do before we can welcome you in safely and in compliance with the regulations. Our aim is to open by June 21st, when all restrictions are due to be lifted. In the meantime, you can follow our progress at https://www.instagram.com/redlionblew where we will announce if we can open any earlier.

Powered by MailChimp®, all emails are blind copied so no addresses are shared. 1 A 2 SUMMER DANCE AND OTHER BVS NEWS The BVS are delighted to announce that McFunky will be entertaining us with funky pop and rock from the ’70s to the present day at this year’s Summer Dance on Saturday 17th July. The dance will be held in the stunning gardens of Ashbrook House by kind permission of the Barretts. Tickets are £12 and can be purchased from the post office, by emailing [email protected] or on the gate. All profits will go to local causes. To note, this event is subject to Covid restrictions and full refunds will be provided if the dance cannot go ahead. In other news, we will not be holding a firework evening this year but we are busy planning an alternative event so watch this space. We are also hoping to hold our monthly BVS meetings in the Red Lion pub - these are usually held on the last Tuesday of the month and would be open to everyone to drop in, whether you want to be a member of the committee or just get involved in a particular event. Blewbury Pre-School Lottery membership is now open to anyone aged 16 and over! For £5 per month members will be entered into a monthly lottery with a chance to win one of three cash prizes. There will be a 50:50 split between prize and fundraising money. It’s an annual membership, and we plan to sell a maximum of 200 lottery numbers each year. We’ve had a great response so far but there are still plenty of numbers available. Our ambition is to hold the first ever draw on Thursday 1st July. In order to go ahead with the draw we need to have a minimum of 100 lottery numbers sold by mid June. The more numbers sold means a bigger prize pot and more support for Pre-School. The sooner we can launch the lottery the sooner we can start generating funds for this much loved village institution. Sign up now so we can confirm the draw date asap. Find your form in THIS Bulletin! If you know of anyone, outside the village, who would like to support Blewbury Pre-School, please spread the word! Point them to our website www.blewburypreschool.co.uk where they can download the sign-up form and see full terms and conditions. If you have any queries, please email [email protected] 2021 DUCK RACE Wings crossed the ducks are hoping, Covid restrictions permitting, to take to the Playclose Stream as planned on Sunday 4th July at 12 noon. Tickets £1.25 a duck are on sale at Blewbury Post Office, there are still some waiting to be purchased, if you haven’t got yours yet, please hurry to avoid disappointment. This event is open to everyone, and the Bell Ringers look forward to seeing everyone on the day to cheer the ducks on and to hopefully celebrate life beginning to return to normal after months of restrictions. All proceeds will go to St Michael’s Tower and Bell Maintenance Fund. NEW VILLAGE HALL AND CLUBHOUSE BOOKING SYSTEM To coincide with the post-lockdown reopening of both the Village Hall and the Clubhouse (Melland Room) we have started using an online booking system called Hallmaster to handle all our bookings. As well as streamlining the booking process this gives up-to-date online visibility of venue availability. Details of the two venues are on the Blewbury website at https://blewbury.co.uk/venues/overview/. Separate pages describe the venues and contain links to each of their charges, user guides, policy documents and Terms & Conditions. The new booking system can be accessed either from a link on these pages or directly at https://v2.hallmaster.co.uk/Diary/ViewWeeklyDiary/9770. This brings up a weekly Diary view, defaulting to this week. Use the navigation buttons to look at the date you are interested in. Using this link to check availability is open to everybody without registration. However, to make booking requests, or to view your existing bookings, you will need to register for a customer account on Hallmaster. This can easily be created from the Diary view by pressing the “+” button against the date you are interested in. New requests will be reviewed by the booking administrator who will contact you for any necessary clarification before confirming the booking. The system will also generate invoices and receipts. If online booking is not for you there is a booking request form you can use. This is available from the Blewbury website and should be emailed to the booking administrator. It will also be available at Blewbury Post Office. This is all very new so please be patient whist we refine the way in which we use Hallmaster and the processes around it. If you have any questions or problems, you can contact the booking administrator by email at [email protected]. Tony Salter, Blewbury Village Hall Executive Management Committee 3 B 4 Romeo and Juliet 19-24 July The Blewbury Players are delighted to announce that they will be performing Romeo and Juliet in the Garden Theatre, Orchard Dene, this summer.

The Vale of White Horse District Council have adopted their Local Plan Part 1 for the period up to 2031. Part 2 of the Plan has an enormous impact on our Parish with the Vale seeking to remove all of Shippon from the Green Belt and planning to develop Dalton Barracks and the airfield to accommodate up to 4,000+ new homes. Taking the lead from the very strong views expressed at a public consultation we held in April last year, we will be opposing Part 2 of the Plan when it is considered by the planning inspector later this year.
