First, it marks the opening of the Jubilee Appeal to which, I hope, all readers of this Magazine will wish to contribute . Second it coincides with the establishment of Physics as an Advanced Level course and thus the achievement of an important academic goal . The fact that a sixth former can now study three Science subjects at Advanced Level is, however, only one of many benefits consequent upon a major improvement of our laboratories, and at least equally important is the provision of vastly better conditions for the teaching of Biology, always a popular subject at Stover and one for which many pupils enter at Ordinary Level. Biology, in common with Geography, is a study increasingly dependent upon field- work, the extension of which, over the past year, in both subjects is a matter on which the staff concerned are to be congratulated . Mr . Earl was the pioneer in this area, and it is sad to have to report that Mr . Earl suffered a serious illness at the end of last term and that, although he has made a wonderfully good recovery, he has been unable to resume teaching this autumn . We are grateful to Mrs . Barnes for filling the gap caused by his absence. Several other staff changes have occurred. Mrs . Wightwick has succeeded Mrs. James as teacher of Latin and Classical Studies and Mrs . Maurer has joined the Math- ematics department . Together with these, we welcome Miss Piper as house mistress to the senior boarders in the Phyllis Dence Wing and as careers mistress Mrs . Vernon having resigned for health reasons and Miss Mayman as housekeeper . Our best wishes go to Mrs . Cottle who, after a decade as housekeeper at Stover, has retired to nearby Chudleigh with her familiar complement of pet animals. Old Girls will be sorry to learn that Mrs . Westlake was compelled by illness to retire before the end of the summer . Mrs . Guntrip, another long-serving member of our community, retired at Easter, but she, happily, is well and reappears whenever her help is needed. Part of the value of the Magazine is that it enables Old Girls to keep in touch with Stover and with one another . Letters sent by numerous Old Girls, following their receipt of last year's issue, gave much pleasure to me and indeed to all the staff, and we are hoping that this issue will evoke the same response .

  • Copplestone Primary School Newsletter [email protected]
    Copplestone Primary School Newsletter [email protected] Edition 15 Friday 3rd May 2019 Message from Head of School: Welcome back! I hope you enjoyed the amazing weather over Easter and some well-deserved rest and relaxation. We came back to school with a bang – especially in Year 4, who enjoyed a wonderful residential trip and a range of outdoor activities. All of the children enjoyed it immensely and a huge thanks to Mrs Marshall for organising everything and to Ms Webber who accompanied us. We have taken a lot of photos but I found a couple of group ones to share in this newsletter so you can see how much fun we were all having. Red Class wowed us at their Crediton Schools Music event at the Great Hall, Exeter before the holidays. They played their instruments with skill and sang beautifully. We were all very proud of you! This week the last few children from Year 5 took part in their Bikeability training. They did very well, listening carefully to the instructions and learning how to ride safely on the roads. Thank you to the CPTA for three great events last term: Bunny Bouncing, Mother’s Day Shop and the Fish and Chip Quiz night. All were well supported and very enjoyable, raising funds for the school so we can enhance the children’s curriculum and learning. The uniform samples have now been finalised and further information about this will be coming out soon in a letter. Many thanks for all the many feedback comments we had from children, parents and staff.

Stover's Golden Jubilee, beside bringing one stage of the School's history to a triumphant conclusion, marked the beginning of a second half- century . The Whit Sunday Eucharist, which was the culmination of the Jubilee celebrations, carried the message of pentecostal renewal and was an inspiration to all present who had ears to hear. Stover goes forward in faith, encouraged by the completion of the Jubilee Hall, around which an aura of the near-miraculous is likely to linger, for it had seemed impossible that this building could be converted from dance hall to place of worship in the brief early hours of that Whit Sunday morning, yet the transformation was achieved—silently, speedily and to perfection. Throughout the Jubilee weekend, the atmosphere was that of a happy family gathering . On the Saturday, Mrs . Key, our Founder, opened the Jubilee Hall, her joy in the occasion being enhanced by the arrival from Australia of her eldest son who acted as one of his father's assistants at the Sunday Eucharist.
