In 2017 we continue to see economic improvements in Ireland, North and South. Unemployment is falling, new businesses are being created and a renewed sense of confidence is establishing itself after the ravages of the Great Recession. However, we cannot afford to overlook the considerable challenges Ireland, North and South, could face, not least as a result of Brexit. Despite the progress that has been made, many sectors of society remain untouched by the recovery and many others are still feeling the wounds of such a difficult period. To help strengthen society, the Irish not-for-profit sector plays a critical role.

    News from Elmhurst Patron HRH The Duchess of Cornwall Summer 2014 Welcome... It seems like just yesterday that we celebrated the successes of last year and already we are preparing to welcome back the students for yet another great year. The summer period has been a time of great activity for the school, two hugely successful summer schools and the handover of the new boarding accommodation are just two highlights that spring to mind. Left to right, Peter Hawksworth, Robert Parker, Guest of Honour Gillian Lynne, Jessica Ward, Roy Shields; photo: Phil Hitchman On a personal note, this summer also saw my wedding to my long-term partner James Wheeler, hence the change of my name from Ward to work and energies of all staff and students in the creation of these.

  • How Do You Solve a Problem Like Ballet in Ireland?
    Ballet Essay 3 Oct 2012:Layout 1 05/10/2012 10:00 Page 1 How do you solve a problem like ballet in Ireland? CHRISTIE SEAVER Ballet Essay 3 Oct 2012:Layout 1 05/10/2012 10:00 Page 2 Ballet. Yes, my daughter is enrolled. Just passed her exams. You know, her teacher passes more Grade 5 students than any other teacher in Ireland. Ballet. Oh, I got my tickets to Swan Lake. Yes, we’ll be sitting in the corporate box with my husband’s clients. I believe this Swan Lake is the best one that’s being presented in the whole of the world today. Ballet. Oh, there’s no real ballet in this country. All we see are Swan Lake and Nutcrackers. I have to go abroad if I want to see anything else. Ballet. Where’s the money? Did you hear the company in town actually might be folding? Some words evoke such powerful associations they immediately ignite the imagination and the senses. In Ireland, the word ballet evokes surprisingly incongruous reactions. And the confusing remarks gain a momentum of their own until ballet’s somewhat precarious foothold in this country seems all the more in question. Ballet has become a loaded word here. Today becomes history It needn’t be that way, considering this island enjoys an immense pride of place in ballet’s world history, due to one young dancer from Wicklow who launched what is now one of the most prestigious schools and companies in the world. As a child, Dame Ninette de Valois danced her first Irish jig on a farmhouse kitchen floor, and years later, her family moved to England and she devoted herself to studying with the best Russian, Italian and French teachers of her day.

    New recycling initiatives now in effect: by Rob Pudner ffective immediately, Gallatin Solid Waste Management District (GSWMD) is accepting only plastic bottles with an imprinted #1 or #2 (typical- ly on the bottom) in addition to paper, aluminum and steel cans, and cardboard. Unfortunately, the nation as a whole currently lacks a market for plas- tics marked with #3 through #7–they’re either removed from the recycling stream locally to be sent to a landfill or they travel hundreds of miles to then be removed and sent to a landfill. [See end of article for accepted/unaccepted item guidelines]. Right now, Gallatin County has an opportunity to reduce its carbon footprint and increase the value of its recycling program by managing non-recyclable materials at our own landfill in Logan. We decided to take responsibility for our own waste rather than burning more fossil fuel simply to truck garbage across the country. ECommon plastics with a number one include beverage bottles, such as water bottles and soda bottles, salad dressing bottles, and some juice bottles. Plastics with a number two include both “natural” and “colored” containers suck as milk jugs and laundry detergent bottles. Plastics must be bottles with a neck–no clamshell containers (from berries or mixed salads) or tubs (cream cheese, yogurt, sour cream) even if they are imprinted with a #1 or #2. Because bottles tend to occupy a lot of space in our drop-off bins, we are asking recycling participants to first crush their bottles and then replace the caps. This focus on #1s and #2s requires extra vigilance from county resi- dents as non-recyclable materials contaminate collected loads and jeop- ardize the livelihood of the entire program.
