Highways & Byways in Sussex
Highways & Byways in Sussex by E. V. Lucas (1904) CHAPTER XXXIV: EASTBOURNE Eastbourne is the most select, or least democratic, of the Sussex watering places. Fashion does not resort thither as to Brighton in the season, but the crowds of excursionists that pour into Brighton and Hastings are comparatively unknown at Eastbourne; which is in a sense a private settlement, under the patronage of the Duke of Devonshire. Hastings is of the people; Brighton has a character almost continental; Eastbourne is select. Lawn tennis and golf are its staple products, one played on the very beautiful links behind the town hard by Compton Place, the residence of the Duke; the other in Devonshire Park. It is also an admirable town for horsemanship. … The Martello towers, which Pitt built during the Napoleonic scare at the beginning of last century, begin at Eastbourne, where the cliffs cease, and continue along the coast into Kent. They were erected probably quite as much to assist in allaying public fear by a tangible and visible symbol of defense as from any idea that they would be a real service in the event of invasion. Many of them have now disappeared. BEACHY HEAD Eastbourne's glory is Beachy Head, the last of the Downs, which stop dead at the town The Beekeeper’s Apprentice Common Core study unit—www.LaurieRKing.com and never reappear in Sussex again. The range takes a sudden turn to the south at Folkington, whence it rolls straight for the sea, Beachy Head being the ultimate eminence. (The name Beachy has, by the way, nothing to do with the beach: it is derived probably from the Normans' description—"beau chef.") About Beachy Head one has the South Downs in perfection: the best turf, the best prospect, the best loneliness, and the best air. -

DESCRIPTION Integrated Key Characteristics: • Inter-tidal shoreline occurring at the base of the steep chalk cliffs where the South Downs meet the sea. • Characterised by flint shingle beaches, formed from erosion of chalk to reveal flint nodules that are eroded into pebbles. • Chalk rubble, resulting from cliff falls, forms spits of land that extend into the sea. • A dynamic and continually changing landscape featuring constant erosion and re- stocking of the beaches. • An exposed, wild landscape which is open to the elements and whose character is governed by the weather. • Engineered solutions to coastal erosion, sometimes extensive, such as wooden or concrete groynes and concrete retaining structures. • Coastal features such as lighthouses, associated with coastal navigation, and anti- invasion defences. • Extensive views out across the sea to the horizon. -

Attendance Policy 2020 with Covid Annexe
St John’s Meads Church of England Primary School Rowsley Road, Eastbourne, East Sussex. BN20 7XS Tel: 01323 730255 Website: www.meads.e-sussex.sch.uk Email [email protected] Headteacher: Mrs Katherin Weeks Attendance Policy Chair of Governors: Mrs Linda Caroe This policy reflects the vision and aims of St John’s Meads CE Primary School by Encouraging staff, parents and children to maximise the learning experience in order that all children reach their full potential. Providing clear procedures for involving parents relating to school attendance. Principles Regular and punctual attendance is of paramount importance in ensuring that all children have full access to the curriculum. Valuable learning time is lost when children are absent or late. Children should be at school, on time, every day the school is open, unless the reason for the absence is unavoidable. Permitting absence from school without a good reason is an offence by the parent. Children are sometimes reluctant to attend school. Any problems with regular attendance are best sorted out between the school, the parents and the child. If a child is reluctant to attend, it is never better to cover up their absence or to give in to pressure to excuse them from attending. This gives the impression that attendance does not matter and may make things worse. Every half-day absence has to be classified by the school, (not by the parents), as either AUTHORISED or UNAUTHORISED. This is why information about the cause of each absence is always required. Authorised absences are mornings or afternoons away from school for a reason such as genuine illness or other unavoidable cause. -
Landslides at Beachy Head, Sussex
CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by NERC Open Research Archive Landslides at Beachy Head, Sussex Beachy Head (Figures 1 and 2) is a famous natural and historic site and tourist attraction on the south coast. The cliff top area is part of the Downland Country Park managed by Eastbourne District Council. The section of cliff surveyed at Beachy Head is situated to the east of the modern lighthouse. The survey spans a 400 m south-facing stretch of beach with a cliff height of between 120 and 160 m. Figure 1 Cliffs and lighthouse at Beachy Head Figure 2 Field sketch at Beachy Head As part of a programme of work monitoring coastal erosion and landsliding at several sites around the coast of Great Britain, BGS has surveyed the cliffs at Beachy Head in Sussex using terrestrial LiDAR — see Terrestrial LiDAR Survey Techniques Geology The geology of the cliffs at Beachy Head consist of Cretaceous chalk comprising the Seaford Chalk and Lewes Nodular Chalk formations (formerly called the Upper Chalk Formation) overlying the New Pit Chalk Formation (formerly part of the Middle Chalk). The New Pit Chalk Formation (Turonian) in the lower part of the cliff is largely obscured by chalk debris. This is principally blocky, white firm to moderately hard chalk with numerous marls. Flint occurs sporadically or in seams in different part of the formation. Overlying the New Pit Chalk Formation is the Lewes Nodular Chalk Formation, which is Turonian to Coniacian in age. This consists of hard nodular chalk and chalkstone, which is locally porcellaneous. -

The Old Eastbournian 2019 The Journal of The Eastbournian Society www.eastbourniansociety.org B WHO THEY WILL BE STARTS HERE At St Andrew’s Prep we encourage our pupils to build lines of character that help them be who they want to be. You are warmly invited to attend one of our open events. www.standrewsprep.co.uk/whats-on/open-days All Old Eastbournians, parents, College staff and other members of the Eastbournian Society are cordially invited to The Annual London Dinner Celebrating Eastbournian achievement Guest of honour: Tom Evans (Wargrave 2005–10) Wednesday 11 March 2020 The Cavalry and Guards Club, 127 Piccadilly, London, W1J 7PX An occasion not to be missed The theme of this year’s dinner is Endurance Our guest of honour is former army captain Tom Evans who has made a name for himself in the last few years as one of the world's best ultra- runners. From coming third in 2017 in the gruelling Marathon des Sables, an epic race across the Sahara, to winning the Courmayeur Champex Chamonix (CCC) in 2018 and then taking third place in the 100-mile Western States race in the mountains and canyons of California in 2019, Tom has proved his incredible ability as an endurance runner. Endurance of a different kind has been experienced by our second guest, John Thornley, who recently completed a teaching career of 41 years and half a term, all at the College. Although now no longer teaching modern languages, John is still very much involved with the school, both in the Eastbournian Society and under his new title Administrative Support Specialist, although he is not too sure about the acronym. -
