Black US Army bands and their bandmasters in World War I Peter M. Lefferts This essay sketches the story of the bands and bandmasters of the twenty seven new black army regiments which served in the U.S. Army in World War I. They underwent rapid mobilization and demobilization over 1917-1919, and were for the most part unconnected by personnel or traditions to the long-established bands of the four black regular U.S. Army regiments that preceded them and continued to serve after them. Pressed to find sufficient numbers of willing and able black band leaders, the army turned to schools and the entertainment industry for the necessary talent.

  • Tourism Australia Update
    Having trouble reading? version 29 July 2020 TOURISM AUSTRALIA UPDATE The tourism industry has had another tough week with interstate travel restrictions tightening and ongoing uncertainty around when the industry will see some return to normality. As frustrating as this is, we are also getting encouraging feedback about significant levels of pent up demand for domestic holidays – and a desire to have different types of holidays. So, while we continue to face some challenges, we can be confident, that when people are able to travel freely again, they will. Tourism Australia is continuing to develop its domestic campaign plans, more details of which we will be sharing this Friday 31 July at 11am in our next webinar. The webinar will include a consumer insights update from our Executive General Manager of Strategy & Research, Rob Dougan, and a marketing update from our Chief Marketing Officer, Susan Coghill. We will also be joined by Australia’s Tourism Minister, Simon Birmingham, who will give an update on Australia’s ongoing response to coronavirus. Register here. Also a reminder that over the past few weeks, Tourism Australia’s international teams have hosted a series of virtual market specific updates and you can watch recordings here.

  • A Service of Thanksgiving to Mark the 70Th Anniversary of Ve
    Westminster Abbey A SERVICE OF THANKSGIVING TO MARK THE 70 TH ANNIVERSARY OF VE DAY Sunday 10 th May 2015 11.00 am FOREWORD Welcome to Westminster Abbey for this service of thanksgiving and commemoration on the 70th anniversary of Victory in Europe. The Abbey played a full part on the day itself. After making his public broadcast officially announcing Germany’s total surrender, the Prime Minister, Winston Churchill MP, went to the House of Commons to make a short address and then moved that the House attend at the Church of St Margaret’s, Westminster, the Parish Church of the House of Commons, to ‘give humble and reverent thanks to almighty God for our deliverance from the threat of German domination.’ The House then rose and followed the Speaker to the Church. In Westminster Abbey itself, on VE Day, short services of thanksgiving were held every hour from 9.00 am to 10.00 pm. An estimated 25,000 people attended during the day, with the Lord Chancellor and House of Lords attending at 3.00 pm. The short services offered ‘high praise and thanksgiving to the God of all mercies for the success which He has granted to us and to our Allies: for the faith which has upheld us through the years of danger and suffering; for the skill of our leaders and the valour and steadfastness of sailors, soldiers and airmen; for the hope that we are about to enter upon a righteous and abiding peace; for the holy memory and high example of that great company of men and women, known and unknown, whose faith and courage God has inspired and used.’ A service was also held on the following Sunday, 13th May, when the standards of Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa were laid on the High Altar to symbolise the loyalty of the whole Empire during the war.

  • Singing Together Enhances Our Own School Community and Creates a Positive Environment
    let’s sing! Songbank resources These songs can all be used in class, in assembly or by children at home. They can be used as videos or listening resources to complement and enhance PHSE topics, to generate discussion and reflection, and as starting points for extended work and activities. They all also directly support and underpin work on core values. One Voice - Brian May and Kerry Ellis: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nd8ySMk5TUs Themes and ideas: • Focus on the clear, simple, powerful lyrics of the song • The importance and strength of our individual voice. One voice can make a difference. • Think of examples of people who stood up and spoke out to make a difference; for example, Malala, Martin Luther King, Rosa Parks, Mother Theresa. • The power and strength we find in working together. • The power of singing itself to bring people together. How singing builds relationships and communities. Reflect on how singing together enhances our own school community and creates a positive environment. How does singing together make us feel? • Focus on the clear, simple, powerful lyrics of the song • The song was written by Ruth Moody of The Wailin’ Jennys and has been recorded by a number of artists. Listen to and compare some of these other versions. Reach out your Hand - Hollie Williams and Bottle Top Music https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cFdYs9TvOIU Themes and ideas: • Reaching out to others • Being considerate, helpful, kind and compassionate • How we can shine the light to brighten someone’s day by being kind, helpful and friendly. • Consider ways around school to ensure everyone feels welcome and included.
