Moulsford News: September 2018 Page 1

From Your Parish Council Miles Powell Parish Council activities over the summer months of July and August have included progressing the pavilion driveway project, dealing with a fallen tree on the Rec, following up with OCC Highways, SODC, SCAS for specific activities e.g. grit bins, refresh of speed markings, Sewage Treatment Plant works, CPR Refresher training and dealing with ad hoc queries. Village Speed Markings Refreshed The commitment secured from OCC Highways last year to refresh the 30mph white speed markings in the village at the start of the 2018/2019 financial year was delivered in the second week of July 2018. The 30mph white text and roundels on the road have a red backing from when originally implemented and it is the white markings that have been refreshed. OCC Highways commented that “Unfortunately, the red backing is prohibitively expensive to refresh and, so to ensure that our limited budget goes as far as possible, we are only able to refresh the white markings.” Autumn Litter Pick– 30th September Reminder - and following up from the SODC “Deep Clean” activity in the village in mid-May, our own activity with this Autumn litter pick. All welcome so do please note diary date is Sunday 30th September, 9am to 1.30pm meet at Pavilion and with hot dogs and hot drinks for all pickers! All equipment will be provided! Sign up - CPR Refresher Training Session - 24th November We’ve been fortunate that no one has yet been required to use the defibrillator installed at the Pavilon. As highlighted earlier this year, we have now been successful in getting another CPR/Defibrillator refresher training session (potentially two) run by South Central Ambulance Service (SCAS) arranged for the village on the morning of Saturday 24th November. We do need names in advance as a training session is for up to 10 people and lasts 90 minutes. If we get 20 people signed up then SCAS have kindly agreed to run a follow on session on the same morning. Timing for first session will be 10am start and if we get enough for a second session, this will start at 12noon. If you do wish to attend then please confirm your participation to the Parish Clerk by the 1st October 2018. Places will be allocated on “first come first served” basis with reserve list if necessary. Local Elections- May 2019 Nothing to do with BREXIT! A reminder that the Parish Council is now into the fourth and final year of its term of office. In May 2019 there will be local elections and a new Parish Council will be formed as the current term of office completes. If you are thinking of putting something back into the village by standing to be a parish councillor and you want to know what is involved then come along to a Parish Council meeting or have a chat to one of the existing Councillors– there’s usually at least one of us at the pavilion on a Friday social night. Grit Bin Following discussion with OCC Highways, Parish Council is funding the purchase of a grit (salt) bin at the top of Ferry Lane. Such a decision has first to be approved by OCC Highways (it has been) and they then provide the bin and the first fill of salt (and bill the Parish Council) and arrange for it to be located on OCC land in likely November 2018. Any subsequent salt refills become the responsibility of the Parish Council. Neighbourhood Watch Coordinator – Volunteer Opportunity Reminder that since May this year there has been - and still is!- a Moulsford Neighbourhood Watch Coordinator (NWC) volunteer opportunity to help keep Moulsford safe and secure! The duties are not onerous and mostly involve publicising messages via email from the police, or more rarely from people in the village who have seen something untoward. If this is something that you might be interested in to help the village then please register your interest with the Parish Clerk. Sewage Treatment Plant It is now over 4 years since Moulsford experienced the groundwater flooding that deluged the ageing sewage treatment facility that serves Underhill. Even at that time there was an awareness from SODC that interim work would likely be required on filter beds until a Packaged Treatment Plant (PTP) was put in place and

Moulsford News: September 2018 Page 2

operational. Parish Council has been monitoring and encouraging SODC activity since the flooding and after reorganisations within SODC we’ve had it confirmed that the project to replace the plant at Moulsford is one of the SODC land drainage an sewage priority projects. Reality today is that until legal agreements (OCC Highways/SODC/ Environment Agency) are sorted and the procurement process completed, we’re not likely to see work on site until mid 2019. We will continue though to keep pushing as much as we reasonably can do. Queries? As always, any Parish Council queries then do get in touch with any of the councillors by email or phone and we’ll do our best to help or point you in the right direction. If you have a particular query then do feel free to come along to a PC meeting– the next one is now on 4th September at 8pm in the Pavilion. Finally! A thank you on behalf of the village to the Moulsford Events Committee and all who have kindly volunteered their time for bar shifts for the Friday night socials for the 2018 season! Season not quite finished yet so do enjoy the remaining weeks of the late summer Friday evenings!

From the Vicar Andrew Petit

My dear friends, Last week I had an entirely new lens put into my right eye. Over the last year or so, I have had increasing problems with a cataract, which is like having a permanent smudgy mist over the eye in question. It is now a very commonplace operation to replace a lens. It is done under local anesthetic and takes about 20 minutes. Apart from a slight stinging when they first put the anesthetic drops in, it is entirely painless. The wonderful thing for someone like me, who has been very shortsighted since his teens, is that the new lens means I not only have got rid of the cataract but that my distance vision in that eye is now almost perfect. I can now see better out of that eye - at distance - than I have been able to for the last 50 years! The only problem is I can’t read out of the new eye at all! Hopefully, in a couple of months’ time I shall get a new lens put in my left eye and then I shall just need glasses for reading. But meanwhile I have two eyes that work well, but not at the same time. The left only works well with glasses and the right only works well without. I tried removing the right lens from my glasses but that gave me two clear images of different sizes, which meant I was seeing double! So for the time being I have to cope with seeing reasonably clearly with or without glasses, but in both cases being aware of a blurriness on the edge of my vision. The experience has got me thinking about different kinds of sight. We speak not only about short sight or long sight, but foresight, hindsight, insight, second sight etc. Jesus was renowned for healing the blind. However, in the Bible, sight is not just about our physical eyesight, it is also about faith – our ability to see spiritual realities. In one quite comic incident in John’s gospel when Jesus heals a man who has been blind from birth, his physical blindness and new sight is contrasted with the spiritual blindness of the Pharisees. It seems they cannot accept that Jesus could possibly have healed the man, because that would mean accepting that Jesus really was the Messiah. Sadly, many today, whilst they may have excellent eyesight – with or without glasses – are a bit like me at present: we see well with one eye – i.e. our physical eyesight, but our other eye – our spiritual sight or faith – is blurred. We can function pretty well because the image from our good eye dominates our vision, although we may be aware of a little blurriness on the edge. How do we improve our spiritual sight? Well, you won’t be surprised if I tell you that the best person for healing that is Jesus. The more we read about him, find out about him, get to know him, the more our spiritual sight improves. My hope and prayer is that we shall all have 20:20 vision! With warmest regards, from your vicar,

Westminster Update Ed Vaizey MP Last month I attended a rally in Wantage protesting the fact that after two years, Wantage Community Hospital remains "temporarily" closed, with no indication of when it will reopen. Originally, the hospital was closed because of concerns of legionella in the pipeworks. This resulted in the closure of the remaining in-patient beds. Maternity and physiotherapy were maintained. Physiotherapy has since been discontinued at the hospital. The closure of the hospital has deprived the residents of Wantage, Grove and the surrounding villages of accessible, quality healthcare, meaning that the injured and sick often must travel to Wallingford, Didcot or Abingdon for suitable treatment.

We have been promised a number of consultations to discuss reopening the hospital but so far nothing has happened. After months of frustration I arranged meetings of my own. I have arranged to speak with the chief executive of Oxfordshire CCG to discuss plans for the provision of healthcare in the constituency. I hope that they will have an update for us soon. I've also written to the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care to raise the issue of Wantage hospital and make clear the level of feeling the community have for it. I await his response. Every year in September, Heritage Open Days sees places across the country throw open their doors for free to celebrate their heritage, community and history. It brings together over 2,100 organisations, 5,500 events and 46,000 volunteers, and is coordinated nationally by the National Trust, with support from players of the People’s Postcode Lottery. This year they are accepting nominations for a statue that recognises living women that have benefited the community around them. If you would like to nominate someone you can do so at putherforward.com. The latest funding round for grants for local charities open in three of the Postcode Trusts funded by players of People’s Postcode Lottery. More information can be found at the three websites for the local trusts, each one has a different funding focus and I recommend charities ensure that they apply to the Trust most relevant to them. postcodetrust.org.uk focuses on projects which focus on prevention of poverty, promotion of human rights and equal rights. postcodelocaltrust.org.uk focuses on projects on health and wellbeing through grass roots sports, arts and well-being programmes and postcodecommunitytrust.org.uk focuses on projects supporting outdoor spaces, local environment and wildlife. Please feel free to contact me if you have any pressing issues that you would like help with. You can contact me on any matter at the House of Commons, SW1A 0AA, [email protected] or 01235 768 888. Email is the quickest and most reliable way to get in touch, as I keep a very close eye on my emails and can reply very quickly. Details of my activities in Parliament can be read on my website, https://www.vaizey.com. I also send out occasional general interest emails about developments in the Wantage and Didcot Constituency.

Red Kites Anon

The lovely weather recently has encouraged us to make use of our garden and eat outside. Unfortunately, we have had a few problems with red kites. We have had two occasions when a kite has swooped down and tried to take food from our plates in front of us. On many other occasions, the kites have flown low over the garden to check for food and then sat in our neighbour’s tree while we eat, waiting for us to get up and leave. Being hassled by such large birds is not pleasant and if they are getting so brave we are worried that they may injure someone. Unfor- tuntely, people feeding these birds in their gardens is just encouraging this unacceptable behaviour. By becoming more used to humans we are putting them, as well as ourselves at risk. I understand that the RAF is already sug- gesting that they need to be controlled due to the danger to their aircraft. If people are injured by them then this will only result in calls to have them culled which I’m sure none of us wants. Red Kites do not need to be fed given the abundance of food natuarally available. I’m sure we all love to see these magnificent birds back in Oxfordshire but they need to be left to scavenge for themselves, which is their natural behaviour. So please, encourage your readers NOT to feed the kites.

Cranford House News Brian Monet All-Round Excellence for Cranford House GCSE pupils

Cranford House is thrilled to be celebrating pupils’ fantastic achievements in a set of outstanding GCSE results that highlight both the school’s continued academic excellence and its focus on providing an all-round education.

With the new GCSE curriculum and assessment model now in place across the majority of subjects, the school was particularly delighted to see a huge 85% of all grades were awarded between 9 and 6, the equivalent of Grades A**-B. Particular cause for celebration came as 65% of pupils’ grades were awarded at Grades 9-7, the equivalent of A**-A, marking a substantial 15% year-on- year increase in attainment at the very highest levels. This is a particularly impressive feat for a non-selective school.

Many congratulations go to Moulsford resident, Scarlett Jones, who was awarded eight GCSEs with five at Grades 8-7 (the equivalent of A*- A grades).

Results proved incredibly strong across the board, giving real weight to the school’s focus on providing an excellent all-round education. As well as stellar success in core subjects such as Mathematics and Chemistry where in excess of a staggering 80% of grades achieved were Grades 9-7 (A**-A), subjects such as History and Physical Education were also represented brilliantly with 100% of grades at 9-8 (A**-A*), while Art, Drama and Music pupils scored a very impressive 100% Grades 9-7. In addition, the school’s initial analysis projected a value-added score showing that pupils at Cranford House can expect to achieve over 1.5 grades higher per subject than they would elsewhere.

Headmaster Dr James Raymond commented, “These are an outstanding set of results and reflect a great deal of hard work, talent and dedication from our wonderful Year 11 pupils. I am incredibly proud of all the pupils and staff for achieving such an excellent set of results, especially in the context of the most significant examination reforms for a generation.”
