Sports Newsletter December 2019
PIMPERNE CE VC PRIMARY SPORTS NEWLETTER Newsletter December 2019 Volume 1, Issue 1 On Tuesday 16th Oct, 6 pupils from Year 6 have started the journey to become Sports Leaders by attending the North Dorset Primary Leadership Academy at St. Mary's School. They are now our school Bronze Ambassadors. Their challenge, over the next year, will be to help increase participation and healthily lifestyle within school, to promote the positive values of sport and to be the young people's voice on PE and school sports. We look forward to seeing the skills they have learnt from this day. Sports Ambassadors Tag Rugby Club This half term we have been coaching the year 3 and 4’s how to play tag rugby every Thursday lunch time. So far we have covered passing, running, and small sided games. We are going to develop tagging skills, passing backwards and teamwork. Ashton Year 6 Davidson Cup Football Match Upcoming Events Spring Year 6 Boys Term First round versus Downlands Primary School. BSN Football & Netball We all felt excited as we came onto the pitch.

First from education, next from running a Diocesan Retreat House, and then 3 years ago, from ministry. Not a rec- ord, perhaps, but retirement suggests slippers and leisurely cups of tea in the garden. Why doesn’t it work like that in reality? I still seem to be happily busy – taking services, occupied with voluntary work, singing in choirs, taking music lessons, and having a wonderful social life! But there is a cautionary note. A recent health scare caused me to con- sider – as one frequently does at a certain age – my own mortality. Death holds no perils, but I’m just not ready for it yet, so I thought I’d write my- self a letter and share it with you, as you may be in the same situation.

Motcombe Neighbourhood Plan 2017 to 2027 Regulation 16 Consultation
Motcombe Neighbourhood Plan 2017 to 2027 Regulation 16 Consultation Dorset Council Response Dorset Council (DC) welcomes receipt of the submission version of the Motcombe Neighbourhood Plan. The Council is aware of the various consultation events held within the local community to identify issues and draw conclusions, and in this context seeks to provide constructive comments on the finalisation of the Plan. For ease of reference, comments are set out according to the policies of the submission version of the neighbourhood plan. Some comments may cover more than one topic and should be seen in this context. The comments made in this response should not be seen as exhaustive and the officers continue to encourage an on-going dialogue with the Neighbourhood Plan Group and the Qualifying Body. General Comments: The submission version of the Plan appropriately seeks to deal with issues of a local nature including the built and natural environment, the local economy and a proposed allocation to meet local housing needs. Detailed Comments: Page 1, Map The map misses the northern most tip of the parish boundary. Also, parts of the parish boundary are difficult to distinguish as they are drawn in blue (the same colour as the flood zone). Suggest amending the map to correct these issues. Page 13, Map Suggest showing the Gillingham Royal Forest area as this is referred to by Policy MOT5. Page 14, Policy MOT6 We suggest that the second paragraph should clarify that it only applies in cases where development requires planning permission (i.e. permitted development schemes can’t have additional requirements imposed).

Assessment of Settlements Based on Population and Community Facilities
Appendix 1 North Dorset District Council Local Development Framework Assessment of Settlements Based on Population and Community Facilities Supporting Document to the Core Strategy: Issues and Options Paper May 2007 1.0 Introduction Scope and Purpose of the Report 1.1 In light of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 and Planning Policy Statement 12: Local Development Frameworks, North Dorset District Council is undertaking evidence gathering work to assist in the preparation of its Local Development Framework (LDF), which will have regard to, and will contribute to, the achievement of sustainable development. 1.2 The main objective of this report is to identify and audit the current services and facilities presently found in all settlements within the District and the resident population of those settlements. This report will be used as part of the evidence base in the production of the Council’s Core Strategy. 1.3 This supporting document aims to generate options for the identification of sustainable settlements. These towns and villages will be the focus for future development and will be shown with a settlement boundary in the Council’s Core Strategy. 1.4 This report serves as only a part of the evidence base which will inform the production of the Council’s Core Strategy. Full stakeholder and community consultation will be undertaken, following the statutory requirements of the ‘new’ planning system, and the corporate objectives of the Council, in order that the final decisions made by the Council are fully informed by the views of the District’s communities. The Local Plan and Emerging Regional Spatial Strategy 1.5 A primary strategy of the Local Plan is to concentrate development, especially that defined as major, to the main settlements in the District.
