    END OF TERM MAILING LENT TERM 2019 HEADMISTRESS: DR CAROLYN SHELLEY B.ED (HONS) PHD DIRECT LINE: 01242 258079 EMAIL: [email protected] 29th March 2019 Dear Parents, The last two weeks of this term have been very busy across the school, including, as you know, welcoming inspectors to the school to see all the wonderful work we do, including some of our WOW days. The children enjoyed showing their work and were a great credit to the school. Thank you for taking part in the parental survey and feeding into the process - the report is now being finished and we look forward to sharing the results with you in about seven weeks time. In the second half of term, we have held some exciting WOW days linked with topic work, both further afield and at school; Year Two had a fantastic Space Day at school, dressing in amazing costumes and learning many new facts, and Year One had a fantastic visit to ThinkTank Birmingham, linking with their Science topics and returning home full of information about Forces, the Body, and fossils and skeletons! Reception invited other year groups to join them in their Space Day when they investigated constellations and the planets in the ‘Wonderdome’ an amazing planetarium in our Pre-Prep hall. The children were fascinated and they then went on to find out more planet facts and to create their own constellations in the classrooms. Lastly, we all celebrated World Book Day with a focus on poetry this year; we had fun sharing our favourite poems or rhyming stories, reading with buddies, carrying out a rhyming quiz around the school and, of course, becoming poets ourselves.

A gathering of more than 50 people heard Neela, a local history expert and a FOLK member, pay tribute to Walter Ballinger and the other Stalwarts, who were imprisoned in 1906 as a result of their action to secure public access to the Hill. The Wheatsheaf was the headquarters for the Stalwarts and so it is fitting that the new plaque will be a permanent reminder of the sacrifice they made so that future generations could continue to enjoy the Hill. The Leckhampton Local History Society organised the event with their members being half of the gathering. FOLK was well represented. Martin Horwood, Leckhampton ward Borough Councillor and a supporter of FOLK was present. The current owner of the Dale Forty Piano company, Colin Crawford attended the unveiling. Colin is not related to Henry Dale, who bought the site in 1894 and was a protagonist in the drama, but he has an interest in the history. Walkers along the Cotswold Way from Hartley Lane will be able to see another plaque dedicated to a Stalwart and more information on the battle for access is available on the FOLK website www.leckhamptonhill.org.uk/site- description/history.

  • The Archaeology Collection
    The Archaeology Collection The result of a hundred years of archaeological collecting is many thousands of individual artefacts. For documentation purposes this large collection is separated into ‘object records’ which may consist of a single ‘small find’, such as a medieval brooch, or a whole box of ‘bulk finds’ like pottery sherds. There are approximately 10,000 archaeology object records. ● 74% are finds made in Gloucestershire ● 14% are coins from hoards and sites ● 6% are ancient Greek, Roman and Egyptian antiquities ● 5% are finds from Europe or from Britain outside of Gloucestershire ● 1% is of unknown origin Finds made outside Gloucestershire Nowadays the museum only accepts archaeological finds made in its collecting area of north-east Gloucestershire. However, in the first half of the twentieth century some small but significant groups of non-local archaeology were acquired. Among these are ancient Egyptian artefacts donated by the Committee of the Egypt Exploration Fund in 1907 and antiquities from all over the Mediterranean World purchased from A.J. de Havilland Bushnell in 1915. Head of Hermes, Cyprus, about 400 BC. Height 20 cm (1915.114.60 Bushnell Colln.) Prehistoric finds from Gloucestershire The collection boasts some prehistoric groups of regional, and indeed national, importance. Of particular significance are finds from the great Neolithic long barrow sites, such as Belas Knap (excavated in 1863-5 and the 1920s), Notgrove long barrow (1881 and 1934-5) and the West Tump barrow (1880), consisting mostly of human bone. Other finds include polished stone axes and large quantities of flint tools, while from the Bronze Age come items like the Barnwood Beaker vessel and Collared Urns from near Bourton-on-the-Water.
